Monthly Rentals in Hitiaʻa O Te Ra

I booked in for a month long writing retreat and I had the most special time along the way. Wendy is the definition of manaaki – a kupu Māori from home that feels the only accurate description of Wendy. It was lovely getting to meet her whānau in snippets too. My stay felt homely and as if I gained a second mum 😅 I was very sad to leave but I know I’ll be back for a stay or at least a visit either way. To anyone else who may have hesitancies re: birds, they were delightfully charming. I arrived with a childhood phobia of farm/larger birds. By the end, I had given them all pet-names and informed my partner we’ll be getting chickens 🦚🐓

from first contact to check out Milady was extremely exceptional! she provided a d helped with everything we needed ❤️ she even assisted with transportation arrangements and pick up from the airport with an excellent 👌 contact. Recommend 100 percent.

Great value for money. The accommodation is functional, nothing is lacking. It is located on the heights, overlooking all the beautiful black sand beaches of the east coast, from Mahina to Papenoo. We will definitely be back. Great hosting.

Beautiful Villa, with a great view. Ultra functional, fully equipped. We had a more than pleasant stay where everything is planned to make us feel at home. Yann is a great host, super responsive and answers all our questions. Recommended Thanks so much!
