Summary: As good as it gets in Matapouri! Enjoy a fantastic property with beautiful Matapouri beach just a 200m walk to the end of the road, and the dairy (corner store) right around the corner, this is the perfect spot for a large group getaway comfortably sleeping up to 11 people. Your family will be close to everything when you stay at our Magic spot. Walk to the beach - the wood fired pizzeria, the tennis court or a scenic coastal stroll over to the beautiful Whale Bay. This little village is designed for easy summer fun and you'll be right in the centre of it! The Space: These 2 charming self contained houses are set up for families but are equally ideal for a couples escape. A typical Kiwi bach experience with the mod cons, of Wi-fi and smart tv for relaxing when you've had enough of the summer heat. This is the perfect escape from the city. Book now to experience a quintessential New Zealand beach holiday! Enjoy the large flat lawn, great for summer games and lounging in the garden enjoying a BBQ. The Main house has open plan living, 2 bedrooms, bathroom with shower, WC and laundry. Comfortably sleeps 5 with 2 bedrooms Bedroom1 - One single and one single bunk and Bedroom2 - One queen bed. The Little Bach - 3 bedroom with kitchen and full bathroom, sleeping 6. Bedroom 1 - Queen bed Bedroom 2 - Queen bed Bedroom 3 - 1 Single beds and 1 optional trundler bed With your holiday property manager living locally, we look forward to being of service to you to ensure your stay with us goes well. You'll have the whole property to yourself, both houses and all the outdoor space that 2 whole families might need. Plenty of parking for the boat.

The Neighborhood: Relaxed - the whole Matapouri community is a summer playground, with kids jumping off the bridge into the river. Stalls at the Matapouri hall, walks on grass verges to avoid hot summer road, from the ice-cream parlour back to the beach - or for delicious wood fired pizza on offer in summer season back to the bach. Matapouri Memories is right amongst it in walking distance to it all. Other Things to Note: We are happy that you have made a booking with us!
