Family-friendly vacation rentals in Matapouri

We loved our stay at Serena’s house, it had everything we needed and had a great yard for our 4 yr old to explore.

Was a lovely stay with a lovely view! Peter and Jacqueline were great hosts and very responsive 😊

Ryan was very friendly. He helped us in helping and asking care of all thing we had during our stay. Nice view on the backside deck. Jacuzzi added more beauty to our view

Stunning place to stay and relax with or without kids. Theres lots of space, plenty of beds too. The view is absolutely stunning and the spa pool is such a great addition to the place. I would recommend that you take lots of food for the duration of your stay as the nearest supermaket is quite a drive away. They do have a yummy fish and chip shop and a dairy for your daily needs :) absolutely worth staying here!

Leanne was a wonderful host; excellent with communication and very helpful. The accomodation has a stunning view and is beautifully kept - comfortable, clean and just right for our stay (a two-nighter). The location was excellent; close to the city which has wonderful restaurants - of note The Quay. Highly recommended.

Beautiful, peaceful location. House was spotless and had everything you needed. Multiple outside zones to enjoy the nature and water views. Super private and only a 7 min drive to the heart of Russell.

Even better than the pictures. My family and I had the BEST time at this property. What a beautiful location and great host. Excellent experience.

Amazing little kiwi back in a private Rocky bay. Awesome for quality family time or a group of friends. Will definitely be staying here again!

We have stayed here several times now and enjoy the experience every time. Fantastic location, great host.

Wonderful accommodation. Very comfortable and peaceful. Nice outlook. Very close to river for a walk. Comfortable bed. Friendly hosts. Private. Lovely garden. Really enjoyed my stay here and would stay again.

The bach was perfect, location incredible and Claire was lovely to deal with, we will be back!

Chris and Garth were kind, responsive and welcoming hosts. We booked short notice and they had the room ready early and even thought to make up the extra bed when they learnt I had a teen travelling with me. The space itself is lovely. It is bigger than it appears in the photos, and is extremely well equipped with entertainment, full sized furniture for just a couple or a small family, and the most beautiful gardens to relax in. The bnb is set well away from the house, so it feels private, and the garden setting makes everything feel so tranquil! Location is 10/10 and if you have a fur baby travelling with you, it will be well taken care of too! Ours loved exploring the gardens as well as the beautiful local walks along the river. We are excited to make a yearly trip back to this accomodation.

Very comfortable little place with a ton of nice little touches like artwork, good appliances, comfortable outdoor seating. Very close to the beach and the estuary. Even if you aren't a dog person, the dogs are so well behaved and quiet, they occasionally will visit you and you can give them a pat if you like.

Our stay at Margaret & Lou’s property amazing. As myself and my partner are visiting my parents who live in another part of Northland and we wanted them to see Paihia which they did as we had the most amazing views. Thank you ☺️

We stayed at Lorna's place for our trip to the Poor Knights. Absolutely perfect spot to stay and explore around Tutukaka. Well set up with everything you could need. Would definitely stay again!

Lovely little cabin, beautiful scenery and surroundings. We saw an amazing sunset and a rainbow at the same time! Awesome. My partner and I had a lovely time relaxing in nature and cooking on the gas stove. The bed was warm and comfortable. We would definitely came again!

Perfect location for relaxing and switching off. Beautiful views House was incredible!

This home is awesome, so close to everything and has everything you need. Unfortunately, the pool heating wasn't playing ball but we were able to take advantage of the spa.

This was the most lovely accommodation! It was clean, well-appointed, and had the most beautiful view of the Bay. Wendy communicated well, and provided easy instructions for entry into the car park, and from there, into the apartment. Our two night stay was extremely quiet, which we expected, given it's not the high season, yet there was still enough going on about town that we never wanted for something to do! The location was absolutely ideal, as all businesses were within very easy, close-in walking distance. Our only wish is that we could have stayed longer, and we'll definitely look to return!

Andrea and Mike were very kind and responsive. The couple run the place rather efficiently and respond to the customers' requests very quickly. We found that the ensuite bathroom was a little smelly and the hosts were trying all their means to eliminate the odour for us and even offered to switch to another available suite for us - surely they care for their customers. Thank you Andrea and Mike, we had a great time at the kohinui cottage! Kids thoroughly enjoyed the pool and the hot tub, amazing place to be!

Amazing views, exceptional place and Jeff is a great host. This was a very memorable relaxing holiday. We hope to visit this stunning place again sometime soon!!

We came up from Auckland for a wedding & the property was local to everything The property was great and both Rob & his wife were lovely. We barely seen them so we decided to go say hello down at their Phat House bar in haruru. We had a couple of nephews come and visit while we were up aswell . Catching up with whanau and coming back to relax there was lovely .

Ideal for our group of golfing guys looking for a comfortable house with individual beds and close to all local amenities. Awesome outdoor area to have an end of day catchup before walking into Paihia for dinner. The next time we head north we will want to stay here again.

Great place, stayed two nights and check-in was smooth, house was a great size for a group of 8 people. Short walk to Mangawhai township and handy to everything we needed. Would stay again.
