Cottages in Whananaki South

'Fantastic comms with the host from the outset and a lovely place to be based. Perfect to have a fully fenced yard for our dog and to be able to put kayaks in the estuary just metres from the gate. Property is clean and well equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. '

'We loved our holiday at Hiwi. The location is stunning and secluded. The house is charming. We enjoyed it so much we booked for next summer as soon as we returned home.'

'What an amazing spot for a few days out of Auckland. Stunning location with beautiful gardens and a private beach. Spacious and lovely home with epic postcard views. We had a wonderful time. Thanks for your hospitality Maureen. '

'Hi,I phoned during our stay about the state of 82 Sandy Bay Farms road. The biggest concern was the smell of the water from the faucets, especially in the showers and baths. The water had a significant sewage smell to it. It lingered on all of us after we've been through a shower or a bath. The exterior of the house was also dirty.

'Perfect spot to stay in amazing Matapouri. The house is pretty well equipped for large family or group. Large garden and deck are entertainer’s dream. Our toddler loved toys, trampoline and swings. Highly recommended!'

'Heel erg genoten van het verblijf! Huis was een stuk groter dan beschreven en hoe het op de foto's over kwam. Daarnaast waren er meer slaapkamers dan beschreven wat alleen maar een plus is. Super vakantie en fijne host'

'The third 3 day stay of a 9 day holiday. The bach/chalet was well appointed, to a high standard, and suitable for couples. Set down a small track it is in a quiet location and is a good base to explore Whangarei heads and the adjacent coast. A pleasant and comfortable place for a long weekend.'

'Lovely bach, excellent location. Would love to make a suggestion to have some pedestal fans available to use at night for sleeping, it’s such a nice warm bach but unbearable for sleep…….we wished we’d brought our own fans. Also Bachcare sent us the wrong lockbox code but we’re lucky they answered the phone with the first call and rectified the problem. Thankyou to the owners for renting out their home so people like us can have a summer holiday at the best location!!'
