My Partner and I had such a great stay here that this was our second time this summer. The property is beautiful and remote. Everything is there for us to have a Northland adventure with our dogs. Thanks for hosting us Greg! We had a great stay!
We really enjoyed our stay. Greg was easy to deal with, accommodating with our requests and prompt with his response. It was a last-minute trip that we manage to book and enjoyed our time.
My partner and i had a great stay at Gregs property. The cabins had everything we needed to enjoy all the wonderful things northland has to offer. We loved how quiet and peaceful the property felt. Our dogs also enjoyed having so much space to run around. Greg was easy to communicate with and very accomadating. Thanks for having us!
It is a great trouble-free place with plenty of room for a family of four. Having the bedrooms detached from the living, kitchen, bathroom was okay for us as we had good weather. Great place for it's price.
Such a cool family friendly place to stay in the far north!
We took our dog who enjoyed running around outside, really accommodating to and extra day and super helpful host.
Thank you so much
Basic kiwi batch 5 mins from Mangonui. Lovely views back over the harbour and a very quiet and relaxing spot. Bach is basic but has all you need with a good gas BBQ. No shade outdoors so best bring your own as can get very hot in summer.
Not suitable for boats due to driveway with overhanging trees. Despite advice saying there are washing facilities in the area - there are not. Nearest is probably Kaitaia or Kerikeri (Z Taipa does not offer) so washing your boat is a nightmare. Could be a bit cleaner but overall was good value for money over the New Year period.
A nice location in the hills overlooking Mangonui. Standard accomodation without being fancy. Be aware, no TV (it's not listed, but you may take it for granted), or Wifi (not a surprise as the property is up in the hills). The Lounge/ Kitchen unit is separated from the Bedroom unit by a 20m walkway, not a big deal, but not apparent in the listing.
Definitely not the Ritz but more Run down than ârusticâ. All surface areas were clean but the place could definitely do with a more thorough clean more often as we had to dust and vacuum the living and sleeping quarters especially to try and get rid of a stubborn stench. Didnât work.
The main living quarters(kitchen/bathroom/lounge area) had a broken lock on it which was unnerving and we tried to contact the owner about and left messages etc but got no reply. Thankfully the sleeping quarters locked so we kept our valuables in there.
Apart from this we still enjoyed our time in the area we loved the location and being close to all the beaches we adore.
Really neat spot with great views to come back and chill out at after that day of adventuring.
Great location less than a 10 minute drive to the beach & 5 minutes to Manganui.
Loved our stay, just needed an umbrella to be able to enjoy the beautiful outdoor setting. We will be back!
We had a lovely experience staying at Greg's place over the Christmas holiday. The place is as described and has everything we needed. Beautiful view of the bay from the deck, thank you! :)
We had the most amazing weekend here. Had everything we needed and was perfect for the dog. The views are incredible and having dinner on the viewing platform was a highlight.
Will 100% rent again. Thank you so much.
