"Great for our weekend at golf. Thanks"

"Unit was lovely: painstakingly cared for and everything you need. Even accommodated an extra car , which we hadn’t considered. Definitely be back!"

"Property was just what we wanted. Nothing flashy but well priced and a good bed to sleep in. Enjoyed our stay. Thanks"

"Fabulous"

"Relaxing stay just out of town. Lovely birdlife and gatdens. The accomodation was of high standard and very clean and comfortable. Close to Matakana and the coast. Our host Kim was friendly and informative and available if help was needed. Overall a great experience"

"Loved our stay it’s a gorgeous spot.. super quiet and zen Feeding the sheep was a cute highlight ❤️ Rudi has the best foodie tips on where to grab a bite thank you for our stay we return rejuvenated !"

"The listing is inaccurate there is no spa, the bbq was so rusty we could not use it. The pillows are so lumpy you could not sleep on them. Only two beds were made up for us despite there being 4 people. The listing didn’t say you share the location with the owner."

"Lovely little unit, right on the beach⛱️"

"the owners were friendly and welcoming. Fabulous artwork!"

"Quaint"

"Lovely stay in Mangawhai."

"Our family group of 4 adults were all disappointed with how grubby this property was. We don’t mind things which are a bit shabby (carpet, paintwork, furniture, curtains) but we really like things to be clean! Don’t even expect hospital standards but not ….dead bugs, spiders, dust, cobwebs…. Hair and mould in showers, basins, bathroom mirrors splashed with someone else’s toothpaste….YUK. Kitchen equipment greasy and grimy. Also the downstairs bedroom was very damp and unaired and we had to move...

"Beautifully presented and perfectly equipped unit. Private, quiet and very comfortable"

"A few issues like light bulb not working bedside master bedroom and have to get out of bed to turn light off,plus place needs a good dust.on web photo large bbq but a small one there Overall a very good weekend."

"Loved the central location within easy walking distance to the estuary, walkway on the ridge with great views and handy to Wood St shops with groceries, coffee and a range of eateries. A basic kiwi bach but appreciated the full kitchen and good-sized frig/freezer for self catering and the comfortable beds."

"Bach suited us as easy work to catch up with others staying in the area."

"Thanks for a fabulous weekend break! Clean, tidy, comfortable beds and plenty of games for the kids. 3minute walk down a track to the sea, ideal for beachy days."

"Stayed here after an awful camping experience and we couldn’t have asked for anything better! They were so welcoming, telling us all the best things to do in the area and helping us with our muddy gear. Could not have asked for a more perfect accomodation!"

"Fun ... lots of animals around, easy parking. (Not wheelchair accessible for those that need this which we didn't )"
