Cottage holiday rentals in Matakana

Great family stay for three generations. Local beaches are close by and all amenities you could need are not far by car. Shops for essentials are within easy walking distance. Something to do in all weathers

Beautiful view of the vineyard and ocean beyond! Comfortable spot to wind down after a long trip- we especially appreciated the hot tub!

Beatiful location overlooking Auckland. Very secluded feeling. A morning coffee in the hot tub was an excellent way to start the day. Comfortable house. Amazing location.

Thank you so much again for the beautiful stay we had! It was such a gorgeous location, and so private and peaceful. We loved all of the animals everywhere too 🖤 it was everything we could have hoped for and then some!! ☺️

Excellent accomodation. Spacious and spot clean. Very well located with bus stops nearby. Friendly hosts. Highly recommended .

Enjoyed my stay in the cottage and the night views were fantastic! The projector and the spa just adds to the experience. Thanks for having us 😊

What an exquisite and inspiring view of Bethells Beach! The view from the deck was amazing. The cottage was very quiet and peaceful. John was an excellent host. We enjoyed walking the beach and hiking to Lake Waimanu past the huge dunes.

We so enjoyed our stay here. Really convenient to Oneroa shops and walkway down to beach. Everything you could expect, and more in the house. The house was ready for us before check in time and Brad let us know that we could enter early.

The house was absolutely spotless on arrival and we were early - can’t put into words how peaceful it was to sit on verandah listening to the birds and surrounded by lush tree canopies. Everything we could need was in the kitchen and we catered for 4 adults using gas BBQ for steaks from local shops. The hill is steep but usual for NZ and easily walked (slowly) we are 61 and 64. Thank you Barbara for the lovely welcoming treats including towels for the dog 🐕 and the home grown bananas! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and we hope to return 💛

House is set amongst pohutukawa trees near the water, very pretty. Amenities were great for our group who were self catering. Lots of room for our group & the heaters keep the house cosy during the cooler evenings.

Fantastic views and space for the price! This is perfect for all types of occasions with a group of family or friends. The host was responsive and we were given clear instructions on everything regarding to the house, check in, directions, recycling, etc! Highly recommended!

We loved the little cottage! It had everything we needed. It had lovely personal touches. Grateful we could bring Roxy our little dog! Flowers were gorgeous when we walked in and Jasmijn was such a friendly gracious host (Thank you for the lovely gift basket of goodies too) I now love Kombucha! It was also nice to have an inside / outside fire to use! Thank you Jasmijn and Matt we will matt!

The hosts of Songbird Cottage have gone to a lot of trouble to make this place special. So many lovely features, both inside the cottage and around the grounds. One of the best instructions manuals we have encountered, including lots of great recommendations for local walks, attractions and eateries. Top marks.

Alysn was great very helpful instructions for getting to the house. Such a beautiful house and location, wish we could have stayed longer.

We loved our stay!! Chris is very friendly. She allowed us to feed her animals. My 4 year old enjoyed a lot at her farm. It is so close to Waipu Cove and Langs beach. Me and my 4 year old walk to Waipu cove and we enjoyed our little walk. Great Location!! Highly recommended!!

A true kiwiana Bach, has everything you need for a getaway. Spectacular views and surroundings. The fireplace made it nice and cozy.

Great spot, great people. Definitely recommend

Kelly was wonderful - friendly, supportive, and knowledgeable. The tiny house has everything you might need. Be warned that the bedroom is not for the very tall, but we aren't, so it was just fine :-). There is no central air or heat, but plenty of individual fans, heaters, and an air conditioner were available, so it wasn't hard to maintain a comfortable temperature. The surroundings are gorgeous, and we loved waking up to all the birdsongs. The long drive from the main road is a wee bit dodgy, but we quickly got used to it. I enthusiastically recommend this host/lodging, and I would definitely stay there again if I had the opportunity!

Had a great weekend away at Aramis’s place, very peaceful

Wonderful stay, so glad we've already booked to stay again. Matt & Tanya we're extremely responsive and helpful, its like messaging friends. Would highly recommend.

Maria was very kind and welcoming. Thanks to her thoughtful hospitality, our family had a comfortable and peaceful night. We truly appreciate her care and attention. Thank you, Maria!

really nice place. had everything we could possibly need and more. extremely comfortable, light, bright, warm, inviting. loved it. thank you

Truly exceptional place, for the beauty of both the location, the aesthetic of the house and the harmony between the two. If you want to experience the wildlife of New Zealand in a place with unparalleled views, don’t miss this. Katharine and John are exceptional hosts, every detail thought through before you realise, great communicators who respect privacy. A wonderful experience

convenient location. Bus stop is 5 min away and also close to beach. House is cozy and clean. Really suitable for who wants to live in the bush
