Matangi Island Holidays from NZ$1,489

When we first arrived, we were told that though we booked two rooms, two of the same kind were not available so they would be on opposite ends of the property. Considering one must drive to the self contained villas (what we actually booked), this was not going to work for us. Eventually, we were given a different room type so that we could have two rooms together however - initially they said it cost more, but it did not. Then, we found stains all over the sheets (blood and other things). There were no towels in one of the rooms, they did bring them up but they also had lots of stains. We called reception about the sheets and the emergency number but none work - guess they are unreachable after 10pm no matter what. The water view from our room was nice. The pool looked nice but we didn’t stick around to try it out. The fire dancing show sched for previous evening was cancelled due to some filming that was going on. The complimentary boat tour is now $20fjd pp. Dinner was decent, the chow mein was really good. Little over priced for what we got. Breakfast was a little weak (no options for my kid) but scrambled eggs and toast is enough for most. Overall, I would not stay here again but the staff that served us in restaurant and ran up and down hills to show us the rooms was really great. Reception was not as helpful but it was fine.

Dawn and the whole staff were fantastic. The whole island was set up for us to use at all times.

Great staff friendly but the ferry ride to and back was really pricey

Clean rooms the house was absolutely perfect for our wedding group. We had some of the most amazing views and it was in a perfect location near the airport. An issues we had were dealt with immediately.
