Had a great stay. Short walk to a beautiful beach and a great general store close by which sells good takeaways. More amazing beaches a short drive away. The bach is comfortable with all the things you need for a relaxing summer holiday. John the owner is friendly and easy to communicate with.

This Bach was a very comfortable stay with everything you need for cooking and entertainment.
A short walk to the beach, plenty of room for dogs to run in the section and safe. Very relaxing.
We will visit again.
A lovely area and beach.

Well set up batch- 5 minutes walk from beach. We had a lovely stay and I would recommend. Lots of kitchen utensils etc. Bed comfortable There was a bit of rubbish when we arrived including curdled milk which wasn't that pleasant and the rooms a bit dusty so could do with a good spring clean.

Just awesome. Comfortable, clean, close to the beach. This bach was epic for myself and my friends in our mid twenties. Would definitely recommend staying, the bbq and outdoor deck and table was so lovely to use in the summer. Just what we needed, simple bach vibes. Thanks!

We had a few nights revisiting Matapouri Bay and our stay at the property was clean, comfortable and in a great location. Communication with John was quick and he was very accommodating to my enquires. We loved lounging out in the sun on the front deck and the kiddies loved the trampoline.
Thanks John!
