What our guests say

We stayed in the Taharoa House and it was the perfect place for our family to unwind and relax on the large front deck. The decor is modern and colourful - making you feel at home the moment you walk in. This is our go to place each summer.

Our Glamping Tent was Pukeko. Its set on a deck in a fruit tree area away from the other holiday homes on the complex. We were provided with a lantern as theres no power in the tents. Vibrant colours on the bedding and a glorious chair inside. You get to use the communal house Moana for all cooking needs, shared fridge/freezer, bathroom facilities etc. Its so amazing to lay in bed and listen to the birds

Thank you for a truly amazing stay! Your hospitality is quite outstanding. Theres no arrivals office but the staff text you in the morning with arrival instructions. For any personal attention over our stay- we just texted and the friendly staff were there in a jiffy. Amazingly stress free and not far to drive to the Lakes

The Kaipara Executive House is amazing for large gatherings. We booked several houses but congregated in the Kaipara House as it has huge entertainng areas and a jacuzzi. Very private away from the other houses.
