Clippy
This house is like being in a time warp from the 1960s, but humorous. I would say it is only suitable for 2 adults and kids, as the bedroom sizes are extra small. Nothing is supplied, i.e cling wrap, baking paper, salt & pepper, basically you have to take the kitchen sink with you and then there is now room to store it. You have to take all your rubbish & re-cycling with you when you leave, which we thought was very strange, especially as it cost 5 adults $406.00 per night.
Response from Owner
Hi! Yes it is a Kiwi Classic, original home, still loved and treasured by original owners and really, changing it would reduce its charm. But, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I've reviewed the listing, as we want be clear, so guests know from photos and descriptions exactly what our cosy lovely spot offers. I imagine though it could be easy to romanticise when you are dreaming of your beach holiday. I know of groups of 5 and 6 that have stayed here, 2 couples and 2 kids who have a blast, but 4 is a good number too! Its a place that treasures being close, and hey, the ample back yard and beach 200m away give plenty of reasons to be outside anyway! Admittedly, we had run out of baking paper, however we do always provide the cooking oil and salt & pepper, tea, coffee sugar for a few nights, toilet paper, paper towels, hand soaps and all your linen and towels provided too. There is crockery and cutlery, pots, pans, microwave, toaster, kettle and oven and we definitely provide a kitchen sink :) It is quite common in rural areas for guests to be asked to remove their own rubbish. Unfortunately it is not feasible for the cleaners to handle, with what can sometimes be trailer loads of recycling and unsorted rubbish. Though I understand it is inconvenient. We truly hope you had a lovely time in Matapouri! It is magic this time of year and we love hosting people so they can come and make the most of it. All the very best!
