Beautiful house and amazing location

We were so impressed with this property and its location. It was a short walk to the beach and coming back from a swim to the outdoor shower was perfect. We loved the space that the house offered with different areas for the kids and adults to relax. We would 100% recommend for any families looking for a getaway to Matarangi.

This is an absolutely beautiful home. Very well appointed, with everything you could possible need for a few days holiday. The bed we slept in in the main bedroom was so comfortable that we are going out this week to buy the same bed for us at home.10 out of 10 for everything. thoroughly recommended.

We loved our time at the Matarangi Beach Retreat! The house was the perfect size for our party of 10 adults. Everything was so clean and the kitchen well appointed with everything we needed to make meals. There are very few restaurants in Matarangi and we were there during the shoulder season when things were not fully open, so making our own meals was a must. The local grocery store is just down the street and well stocked. We were a quick minute walk to the beach and had it to ourselves most of the time. We were all sad to leave and hope that someday we can come back!
