Independent in Maungaturoto from NZ$167

"Beautiful property. Clean rooms. Peaceful stay, short drive from food and beach. Would stay again. "

"We stayed in a two bedroom unit with two grandchildren aged 11 and 9. Excellent pool and spa pool. Well equipped kitchen with good sized fridge. Floor tiles throughout, were very slippery for children if they got wet (the tiles and the children!) Management gave us some old towels to put down on the floor...much appreciated. Very close to beach and Waipu Cove to Langs Beach Coastal walk. Would stay again."

"Book a 1 bedroom cabin and it was excellent check in was easy and those’re very friendly and knowledgeable and recommended an excellent dining option would definitely return "

"This is our second stay for our bi-annual Aunties & Niece's weekend. There was 20 of us, beds for everyone, 4 bathrooms, and plenty of sharing space to gather, great tables for sitting together, and great outdoor spaces too. Also just a hop skip and jump to go for a swim, followed by a warm outdoor shower. Everything you need is catered for, hard to beat."

"The property was unique in the way that we felt completely relaxed and comfortable there. The new owners were onsite and very helpful. We even had a choice of pillows. The kitchen pavilion and is for guests to use. It was clean, well equipped and had a lovely area to sit. The chalets are very private set in lovely gardens. Huge king bed, good facilities, everything we needed. We’re fussy people, very happy chappies!"

"Great location and accomodation. Really appreciated the comprehensive amenities, made the stay much easier to prepare for and made for a great stay. Wonderful views. As others have said, while you park at and walk past the residents house, once in the cottage it is very private. We saw the host once, which was a gidday as the walked past in the beautiful gardens below. Highly recommend."

"Everything you need for a little holiday away. Everything as described. Heated salt water pool was awesome. Place is quite small but having the covered deck with big table was perfect for reading the paper and family dinners."

"Great little spot for a night or weekend away. Well priced, lovely host, and great location. Thanks again"
