Fantastic location and wonderful hosts who generously let us use the kayaks. We’re a large family of 8 and this property very easily accommodated all of us without feeling cramped. Lovely spot to explore - beautiful bays and beaches and a hearty hike up Mt Manaia. We loved it!

Amazing location, accommodation including facilities and owner with Luna. From the room and balcony, we could see many beautiful boats on calm cove. Especially owner family is so kindly and friendly. The living room, two beds and bathroom with showers in each room is beautiful and comfortable. In front of the house, there is a road and very calm. We stayed wonderful holiday.

I travel up this way for work each month. I have been staying in other places close to this location, but this is the best I have found. After a long day of driving and working, this place is PERFECT. I plan to return with my wife and make a weekend of it. The location is fantastic, with beaches and relaxation. Waking up to the view of yachts in the marina from your bed is not something you get to do every day. The extra bonus is that the snacks and breakfast are brilliantly presented.

Accommodation and hosts could not have been better: we could enjoy both place and people. This location is out of town, in a rural setting. This was a plus for us, but a car is definitely needed to get there. If you aren't a dog lover, this is also to note - the dog was also part of the family at this location. We self-catered here. There are lots of great restaurants in Whangarei too. There's lots of hiking to do in this area, and one under-rated place to see is the Quarry Gardens. This is a delightful, enchanting place to visit.

It's a spectacular spot.
It's a spectacular spot. Explore options include day walks to Mt Manaia, Bream Head, swimming, boating (ALWAYS wear a lifejacket, even if you can swim). Tip: check the tide chart.
Make sure you fuel up in Whangarei. Take care if driving at night as there are no lights in many places and some narrow winding spots.
There are a few local cafes and restaurants for lunch or dinner - but not on a Monday night. We ended up going to McLeod Bay Fish and Chips (also does Asian takeaways and ice creams), but this closes at 7.30 pm. (The snapper was excellent, and you can get kumara chips if you like).

Loved the beautiful walks on offer. stayed in McLeods Bay which was central and meant we were only a short drive from several other lovely bays. Ocean beach and Smugglers Bay definitely worth a visit as well as Pataura. Water is crystal clear and the beaches are so clean. The Pines Golf Course is a great course.
Parua Tavern does great meals and is in a lovely spot. You can sit right out by the water or up on the outside deck - there is also a covered indoor deck area and an inside section too. McLeod Bay takeaways do great fish and chips and the Indian takeaway at Parua Bay also do great meals. Overall we loved the tranquility (we went at beginning of April so not many holiday makers around and it was like we had the place to ourselves. A beautiful part of NZ and we'll be going back again.

Amazingly beautiful spot. So much to see.
Amazingly beautiful spot. So much to see. The locals were very friendly. The beaches and scenery are stunning. We didn't see a single bit of rubbish on the beaches and whilst there are no bins for rubbish, everyone takes their own rubbish with them. There was nothing we did not like about the Whangarei Heads.

Plenty of walks with fantastic views, beautiful (and very private) beaches with the cleanest water we have ever seen. Very picturesque mountains, which you will enjoy climbing. Great "Fish and Chips" shop just nearby, otherwise, you can travel (8 min drive) to a local "4 Square" (mini-supermarket).
