This lodge is off the beaten track and instantly on arrival provides a wonderful retreat worlds away from the real world. Wonderful friendlyhosts filling in for owners overseas.

We arrived late in the evening and choosed this place by coincidence . Nice and very cean Units and Appartments! The Hosts are very friendly and helpfull. UNfortunately the restaurant which is 15 minutes driving distance further located was closed. So the owner offered us selfmade Pizza whiich was very good. Perfect location for weddings!

Myself and my girlfriend stayed at Te mahia Bay resort for just the one night and it was fantastic. We stayed in one of the motel units which was absolutely HUGE and had a double bed, 2 singles, 2 sofas, an en-suite bathroom, a TV and a kitchen (hob not oven). The kitchen is a definate bonus as there is... More
