Idyllic, peaceful and relaxing
A gorgeous wee place nestled in the heart of matakana. So lovely to be able to relax with one of my bestie's in such a beautiful home. Jules was super helpful and went to lengths to make our stay a great one. Great tip if you're going with the friend she is able to separate the bed into two singles. The property was beautifully furnished and conducive to snuggling down and relaxing

Small but well equipped and very clean apartment underneath the owner’s property. Situated on a very quiet/ peaceful residential street around a 5 minute walk to the village (accessed from a path behind the house). Not the cheapest, but a high standard of accommodation in a good location; ideal for a couple on a short break.

Thank you Jules, we had a lovely stay. Your little garden apartment was beautifully furnished and clean. Good little kitchen well provisioned with cooking tools and pots, washer/dryer very handy. Perfect for a 3 day retreat from Auckland. Great being able to park off street. Very walkable to Matakana Village centre - really only 5 minutes walk. Thank you.

Tiny piece of paradise
Our stay was a simple overnighter, but the property was fantastic and beautifully laid out. Clear instructions about the place and helpful information about the area was available and easy to understand. It catches the morning sun and is beautifully quiet
