Book a Makarau Cottage

"Loved the country atmosphere, peaceful and quiet. Cottage had all the mod cons. Very roomy with two bedrooms and bathroom laundry, we made use of. Easy access to shops and restaurants, and of course the starry nights topped it off. Thanks Sue for letting us stay there…."

"Beautiful location and so comfortable. Very well organised and outstanding comms. Thanks so much!"

"We spent 7 nights at Moana Cove and felt like we had been transported to a far away island, except it was just a hop, skip and a jump away! We loved walking through the bush to beaches, kayaking through the mangroves, walking through Mansion House, visiting the boat club for a meal is a must! And lazy sunny afternoons reading and watching the tide go in and out. Sharon and Rob were great hosts, giving us privacy but always incredibly helpful if we needed anything. Hope to be back!"

"Very well-presented and surprisingly spacious cute cottage, great place to forget the rest of the world and read books. Utterly relaxing and the views on the walks, right across the harbour, are impressive. "

"We really enjoyed our stay at Rosie’s cottage. A real paradise in Stanmore Bay. "

"A short stay of 2 nights, house provided everything we needed for a girls weekend getaway. Linen and towels supplied. Spacious bedrooms (3) plenty of room for our shopping we achieved locally at Matakana. Would certainly stay again if in the area."
