Second time staying here. Excellent location with private beach. Great for smaller children. Lots of space inside and out but inside could do with a deep clean and smells musty. Couldn’t get sky to work again. Would be great if it had a dishwasher. Overall a great place to stay with a large family.

Great stay. Only downside is the bugs at night time and having to keep the windows and doors closed but not much you can do about that due to the property location. Overall great stay.

We had a fabulous family Christmas holiday at Willowood Retreat. The house was perfect for our extended family with heaps of storage for all of our stuff. We loved having our own beach and was really safe swimming. Will come again.

What a cool place to stay. Excellent layout of the house, more than enough room for all of us. It’s very ‘woodland Forrest’ hunter cabin type. Just gorgeous. I’d happily stay again

Eight adults stayed here. 3 bedrooms with 2 single beds and 2 bedrooms with a king sized bed. Living areas were large enough for all of us to laze around and not be on top of each other. Large dining table to also gather around and have a laugh. Great outdoor area where we enjoyed sitting in the sun. Met one of the neighbours (who was lovely), her daughter and their gorgeous cats :) Ngongotaha township was just up the road which was handy. The house isn’t too far from the city. We caught a taxi van once which was only $30ish to get all of us to town which we were happy with. House decor is a little dated but that wasn’t a biggie as everything else was super! Communication with the owner was easy and she responded quickly. We all loved our time here :)

Our two families had a wonderful time in this house. Plenty of room to all eat together and lounge together. Four kids had their own room. King size beds in the other 2 masterrooms. Nice to have 2 bathrooms also.

Awesome, spacious accommodation. 2 fridges are excellent. A clothes drier would be a great addition. The house is just like the photos. Unfortunately the grounds were overgrown & untidy. The main shower door seal falls off, causing leakage & we had to use towels provided to wipe up water. A blue recycling bin is required as the council did not collect our bottles in the green bin provided & we had to go to the recycling centre ourselves, which was an inconvenience. There is a broken bed end on a single bed in the end bedroom. The insinkerator is noisy. We accidentally broke a wine glass. In general, we would highly recommend this home in future.
