Matapouri Beach Family Haven - Matapouri Home

Matapouri Beach Family Haven has plenty of room to run around outside and open plan living inside, make this a perfect home for family holidays. You'll love being just a short flat walk to the gorgeous Matapouri Bay, where there is golden sand on a picture perfect beach - a safe playground for both kids and adults.

With four bedrooms, two full bathrooms and an extra toilet, plus a large laundry, there is plenty of space for groups of up to eight people. This house has a lovely relaxing holiday feel, with sliding doors that open up the living area to the outside, a bar where you can create your own special holiday cocktails and an outdoor area to sit around on those balmy Northland summer evenings. There is even a cosy wood-fire in the lounge for winter holidays.

There is everything you need here - the kitchen is spacious and very well equipped (oodles of fridge space), three toilets, two showers and a bath so no queuing for the bathroom! There's even unlimited WIFI and room to park cars and the boat!

Within a short drive is Sandy Bay (renowned surf beach), Woolleys Bay (great for boogie boarding, walking, swimming), Whale Bay (where bush meets the sand - an idyllic picnic spot), and Matapouri Bay (the jewel of Tutukaka Coast). Tutukaka is the place to launch your boat, wander the shops and cafes, or catch a dive expedition to the Poor Knights Islands. Further on from Tutukaka is Ngunguru, a seaside village on the estuary with a well-stocked superette, hairdresser, beauty therapist and takeaways, golf course, sports complex, cafes.

Matapouri Beach house - a great place to explore the Tutukaka Coast, a great place to relax...
