"Stayed there over Christmas with extended family and loved the entire set up. The views are amazing, the kitchen has everything you need including espresso machine and magic bullet for smoothies and cocktail. Lots to do in the area and incredibly relaxing." Dagi F
"What a gem of a place. Not only is the area and location with the most amazing deck and views stunning , the owners have thought of everything right down to coffee machine and blender for cocktails! All rooms are beautifully decorated and the place was spotless. Looking forward to our next stay (we have 2 more stays before Xmas already booked, yay). Such a great place to get away from the hustle and bustle of the big city." Petra H

We're Mark and Kathy, a carpenter-renovator and midwife-author.
This is our adored Holiday Home in the stunning Hokianga.
This is our adored Holiday Home in the stunning Hokianga.
Why they chose this property
The Hokianga is NZ's hidden treasure ... a haven where history, heaven and holidaying all meet, and Birthplace of Aotearoa, RICH in Maori history!
SPECIAL REQUEST TO ALL GUESTS: We work VERY hard to maintain this beautiful holiday home to a consistently excellent standard for all guests. So if you don't mind adding a few marks to the walls, or stains on the bed linen, or chipping a few plates, or wrecking a fry-pan or two, or leaving the BBQs covered in grease, or adding bubble-bath to the spa-pool (!), or letting kids eat chocolate in bed and carry drinks over carpeted bedrooms, etc, then please do NOT book to stay in this property. With kindest warm thanks.
But if you are a discerning traveller who appreciates somewhere authentically special oozing with special touches and attention to detail, then Onepu Moana could be the gem you are looking for. :)
