About this property

Double Tuna - Matapouri Holiday Home

Nestled in between the surrounding native bush and basking in the sun - welcome to Double Tuna!

Modern and cosy, this 4-bedroom holiday home is the perfect spot for a family getaway. An inviting and spacious interior to help you enjoy your downtime, spend your days with your feet up, reading a good book, down on the beach or making use of the on-site facilities for entertainment, including a Table Tennis table, two smart TVs, SKY TV available when you bring your own sky box, Vodafone TV and a DVD player.

Featuring all the amenities, you need to enjoy your time away, spark up the BBQ to cook up a classic grill for the family and eat alfresco around the outdoor dining area. During summer, when you get home from days on the beach, covered in sand and sea, you and the family will love being able to wash off under the outdoor shower.

With many scenic spots nearby for you to visit, from Whale Bay just a 3-minute drive away, Matapouri Bay a 1-minute drive away and Poor Knights Island which can you access at one of the nearby ports. When you feel like a bite to eat, head on down to Tutukaka just an 11-minute drive away and stop by Schnapper Rock restaurant and bar.

For a relaxing summertime getaway, stay at the Double Tuna!

Expected more for what we paid
We were REALLY pleased that the house was useable for our family member in a wheelchair. These are hard to find!! Excellent level entry into the house, shower and toilet accessible ( just bring your own shower chair), and great spacious living areas. BUT for the expense of the hire, I expected a house that can sleep 8 people... 1) to have more than 2 wine glasses 2) to have plates that didn't have chips in 3) to have the official rubbish bags on hand to use on rubbish day and no communication that they were required! 4) to have more than 1 champagne glass 5) to have the glass coffee table and glass top dinning table polished and looking clean 6) to have more than 4 placemats 7) to have more than 2 serving dishes We would consider staying again if you were able to remedy these issues.

Cleanliness of Property
It is such a nice property for vacation & location but I suppose last or last few occupants have left the property dirty. All beds had dirty sheet and smelly pillows which made me buy all new sheets to be able to sleep. I have cleaned the property before departure as it should be and strongly suggest inspection upon every departure to maintain it. I have my personal batch Central north island hence know importance of holiday arrival guests when you want to relax and enjoy family time, if all guests can be considerate about keeping property clean, this can be my repeat destination but it was in a very disgusting moment for my family to start holiday when it was expensive stay, I don’t mind expensive but when someone is willing to pay such amount, it should be worth the stay and this wasn’t for me on this occasion. I have bought freshener and left that in toilets which should have been supplied. Bathroom should also be supplied with sqeezy to wipe windows. Vacuum was functioning, garage door needs replacing or removal of garage carpet as during rain it was very smelly because garage door leaks while opening & closing specially when it rains. Key holder was next to main ranch slider and not next to gas bottle. It is very nice property & location, if few things can be maintained and enforced, I will be one of many return guests. Price to me wasn’t fair on condition I was took possession of property.
