Te Arai Casa di Lana - 2km to surf beach
Beautiful barn style, accommodates three families easily all with their own bathroom! The line is very luxurious and beds comfy Communication was quick and efficient at very late notice. The place did have a few cobwebs and dust from the road but I think that comes hand and hand with being out in the countryside. Stunning garden outlook to sit and have your morning coffee. We throughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend to other families or larger groups with all amenities supplied and a short drive to Te Arai beach. Thank you!

The Little House By The Sea - Matakana Coastal
The best air bnb I have stayed at yet. You couldn’t ask for a more peaceful place. Their own access down to the beach means the water is at your feet and it is very private. Felt so relaxed after our stay and would definitely love to stay again.

Rose's Cottage
Very comfortable little place with a ton of nice little touches like artwork, good appliances, comfortable outdoor seating. Very close to the beach and the estuary. Even if you aren't a dog person, the dogs are so well behaved and quiet, they occasionally will visit you and you can give them a pat if you like.

The Chapel - Boutique Bach
Warm, spacious, and homely - a perfect winter getaway!

Te Muri Ridge Luxury Retreat
How an airbnb should be. Anna & Brian have created such a welcoming, peaceful oasis with all of the personal touches that make staying here so wonderful. A short drive from Auckland and you feel you're in the middle of nowhere (in the best way). A bottle of wine, homemade cake & bread, breakfast provisions (so many eggs we couldn't finish them all) topped off with a well kept tennis court, pool & spa - in a gorgeous apartment-like setting, we couldn't have asked for more. A great place to stay.

Absolute waterfront self-contained unit Parua Bay
Great, knowledgeable host. pointed us int he right directions for great fishing locations, which was what we were there to do and has the best view. I could almost launch the boat from the deck. A+++

Totara River Farm Studio Room
Peaceful place to stay in the middle of the countryside. The studio room is spacious and bed comfortable. The sauna the hosts have is very good and you have your own privacy there. Hosts were friendly and helpful and all the animals (sheeps, cows, hens, roosters, a cat and especially a dog) were lovely.

Boutique Cottage with x2 outdoor baths
Such a great accommodation with privacy, wonderful outlook over the hills and the bush, dog friendly, and attention to detail with most things thought of and so appreciative of what was offered. If you are seeking a getaway with privacy and amazing outdoor baths with stars above or the wonderful gardens, this is it.. Great lunch at the Parua Tavern before check in and out to Ocean Beach for a dog walk. Highly recommend.

Tropicabana at the Beach
Lovely to be met by Kat as we entered their property, very clean and cosy. Awesome access to the beach which was just fantastic. Lovely hosts....highly recommend.

Quiet Retreat (The Shack)
We really enjoyed our time here. The shower is wonderful and it's great to have a fridge that's a bit bigger than most. Ian was a great host

Boulder Creek Cabin
Our second stay, just as good as the first!. Quiet, clean, has everything we needed. Lovely views. Friendly host. Would absolutely stay here again.

Waterfront Oasis in Mangawhai Heads
Accommodation was great for a weekend away, the house was spacious and clean. Beautiful view from the deck with birdlife all around.

Matakana Cabin - Laidback Luxury
Private, peaceful, luxurious retreat. It is the perfect getaway for a couple to relax and recharge. Nicki is a generous host who provides all sorts of local goodies to enjoy. The cabin is well designed, immaculate, and upscale. Even though we had 3 days of off-and-on rain, we didn’t mind because the views were so peaceful and the furnishings very comfortable. We liked Matakana Cabin so much that we plan to return again next year.

Studio Selah - Parua Bay
Review: Amazing BnB with lovely hosts who gave us awesome info about the surrounding area & good places to eat. Great people to chat with & extremely welcoming & kind. The BnB itself was stunning & we even found some Kawakawa to pick & take home with us. We loved seeing all the native wildlife as well as the cute kunekune who graze nearby the studio. 10/10 we would definitely go again!

Kowhai Cottage
Gemma tastefully decorated unit is just perfect. Responsive communication and unit is just as described and the most comfortable bed! Highly recommended for any length of stay.

Brand new 2br unit in peaceful rural setting
We had a wonderful stay here. It was a lovely place, that was perfect for a weekend away. Lovely owners, and friendly dogs! We would 100% recommend this place, and would come back again.

Quail Cottage
Honour was super friendly and helpful, getting in touch about a weather warning and a recommended route for us to take to get there! Definitely would recommend staying here

The Annex - self contained unit .
this is the second time our boys have stayed they love how cozy it is and all the added touches. thanks for having them!

Whangarei Rural Gem
This was our second stay. Our previous stay was about 3 months ago. Would definitely stay here again. Denise and Craig are wonderful friendly people and the home is quite comfortable, peaceful and quiet. My husband visited the sheep every morning and evening. We looked for the rabbits every time we drove the driveway and evening saw them in the backyard a few times.

Kingfisher Rock
We had a great stay at Tania & Steve’s place, unfortunately it was only for one night. The studio was quiet and well equiped with everything we needed. It was clean, nicely furnished and included little extras like home baked bread, cereals, fruit, milk & butter. Both Tania and Steve were very friendly and their communication was top notch. We would highly recommend.

Susie’s Cottage.
Hattie was great to work with and very kind. The house pets were also very cute and sweet. The view from the property is amazing as well! Great little place for a weekend getaway and the nearby towns were great for exploring. Hattie kept us informed of everything was available for anything we needed.

Coastal and nature views studio
Beautiful spot. Very clean, warm, private and provided the perfect base for a weekend getaway on the coast.

Romantic getaway Te Arai - Peace Tranquility Views
Rudi’s place was a delight. Beautiful quiet little cottage with great views over the hillside. Rudi met us as we arrived and explained everything even down to how we could feed the sheep at the bottom of the garden. Very clean with nice little touches … chocolates, coffee/tea/milk ….. bathroom toiletries and a welcome message. Plenty of attractions and beaches within driving distance. Thoroughly recommend this place, wish we could have stayed longer.
