At Tahi Lodge - Matakana Coast, guests consistently praise the welcoming host, very clean and spacious self-contained units, and a quiet residential setting with wide sea views, describing the property as comfortable, well cared for, and relaxing.
Interiors are well equipped with practical kitchen amenities, comfortable beds, and large showers. In-room continental breakfast provisions earn frequent praise for generous touches like fresh fruit or homemade items, though a few guests found the selection basic and noted a small extra charge for coffee pods. Expect a peaceful, well-kept stay with attentive hosting.

View of the ocean unfortunately obscured by extra growth on vegetation in front of the unit. Apart from this one flaw everything else was top rate. one of the best units we have encountered on our worldwide travels. Kitchen and bath room extremely well equipped. Would return.

Beautiful, comfortable apartment. Extremely well equipped in a stunning location. Lovely extra touches like cereals (inc gluten free) fruit, bread, butter, jams, yoghurt several teas and coffees to name but a few. Lovely owner very helpful and eager to help and recommend other local businesses. Give this place your money, you wont regret it.

We were warmly greeted and unexpected found a big bowl of fruits in our apartment. The floors are clean and carpeted and we had a very well equipped kitchen. After that experience we always measured other stays on the high standard found here. We can highly recommend that place. Thank you very much for the great experience!

Laura greeted us upon arrival and helped us with a small load of laundry as the unit no longer has a washer/dryer. The unit was quite warm and had only one fan so my son’s bedroom was quite hot and muggy during the night. The breakfast provided was good- 4 assorted jams & honey, butter amd a loaf of bread, plus assorted cereals. The TV was quite small but fortunately was a Smart TV so we were able to access Netflix. Overall, I would highly recommend Tahi Lodge was the only caveat being the lack of a fan in the second bedroom.

The room was spacious clean and comfortable. Our unit felt a bit like a basement suite. The hotel is out of the main town area so you have to drive to restaurants. A quirky thing was charging $2 for a coffee pick. This was even though breakfast in your room was included.

The owner was extremely welcoming, helpful and anxious to ensure that we enjoyed our stay. The apartment was very clean and comfortable but was rather tired and out of date (although I understand plans are in place to upgrade it). It was a little smaller than we expected but was well situated with lovely views. Breakfast was very good.

This was beautiful accommodation and we wished we could have stayed longer. Lauren is wonderfully hospitable. Everything we could need was provided and there was lots of room to spread out. The shower was roomy, which was very pleasing, as most hotels seem to squeeze in a tiny shower cubicle. It was in a quiet, safe area and we slept really well.

The room which we enjoyed had a wonderful view, the amenities were thoughtful and convenient, and the large bathroom area offered great water pressure --- something we always love when traveling. Our host, Lauren, took the time to offer great suggestions and give us helpful information related to the area and New Zealand that made it easier for us to get settled and comfortable. Lauren also did a wonderful job providing fruit and keeping our space ready and clean. Many thanks to her. Overall, Tahi Lodge was a wonderful place to stay and we definitely recommend it to anyone visiting the area!

Super Unterkunft mit hervorragendem Service und Ausstattung, wir fühlten uns zu Hause. Alles picobello sauber und sehr schön eingerichtet. Die Vermieterin sehr freundlich und sorgte für alles. Wir bekamen nachmittags sogar frisch gebackenes Bananenbrot. Wir hatten eine tolle Aussicht auf Snells Beach. Beste Unterkunft, die wir in Neuseeland hatten

This was beautiful accommodation and we wished we could have stayed longer. Lauren is wonderfully hospitable. Everything we could need was provided and there was lots of room to spread out. The shower was roomy, which was very pleasing, as most hotels seem to squeeze in a tiny shower cubicle. It was in a quiet, safe area and we slept really well.

Tahi Lodge was a great place to stay at Snells Beach. Lauren was very generous with continental breakfast provisions, fresh fruit and homemade banana bread. Comfortable and stylish, it made a great base in exploring around this area. Recommend Brick Bay sculpture walk and lunch.

Beautiful, comfortable apartment. Extremely well equipped in a stunning location. Lovely extra touches like cereals (inc gluten free) fruit, bread, butter, jams, yoghurt several teas and coffees to name but a few. Lovely owner very helpful and eager to help and recommend other local businesses. Give this place your money, you wont regret it.

It was a pleasure staying in Lauren's unit. It was spacious, private and had a lovely view towards the ocean. Lauren supplied a good variety of breakfast provisions, fresh fruit and juice. As a host Lauren is most welcoming and helpful. We couldn't have wished for better.

Breakfast items in fridge and cupboard: yoghurt, cereals, milk, fruit juice, bread, butter, jams and a well stocked fruit bowl. Very nice hosts. Quiet location in a residential area.

The room was spacious clean and comfortable. Our unit felt a bit like a basement suite. The hotel is out of the main town area so you have to drive to restaurants. A quirky thing was charging $2 for a coffee pick. This was even though breakfast in your room was included.
