Great post, fantastic location
The property is great for a small family looking to experience what the area has to offer. It's a short drive from most places and a stones throw to a great store that does burgers, fish and chips etc. Andrew was great to communicate with, very much recommend this house!

Tranquil Location
Very spacious and loved the tranquil quiet location and easy walk to the Point Wells reserve. Not far to drive to Omaha Beach and Matakana. General Store just a few steps away which does a great coffee from local Matakana beans.

Sunlit oasis, spacious open plan living areas were perfect for our family gathering. Loved the bi-fold doors leading onto the furnished patio. Lots of hot water and awesome shower pressure. The host was very hospitable and accommodating. A wonderful place to stay and we hope to return soon.

Lovely spot
Lovely spot, nice and quiet, spacious. Central to Omaha, Matakana, Goat Island. Nice comfortable beds Everything you need. Linen was provided but only 1 towel per person, I would suggest taking more linen. Great if a few more towels were provided. Also the fridge and kitchen cupboards had hand and food marks all over them which wasn't very pleasant to arrive to. Otherwise everything else was tidy
