There were 14 of us aged from 11montgs to70! We stayed for 5 nights & had a wonderful time enjoying the privacy with so many bedrooms & the great seating areas. We loved sitting around the fire for evening drinks & after dinner fun. We ate all our meals at home as much easier & enjoyed the oven etc Thank you so much for a fabulous holiday The location was great, close to the estuary & beach for swimming, & paddle boarding. A great holiday thank you…

Good location, amazing outdoor area, suited our needs

We loved our stay at this house - it was perfect size for 3 couples and 8 kids. Kids loved all the different bedrooms and bunk arrangements and gave the adults lots of options of where to best sleep - beside the kids or the opposite end of the house! The large kitchen living area was great for so many of us and we never felt we were on top of each other. Unfortunately the kitchen lacked a microwave and decent can opener. Sadly the fire wasn't working which was one of the places best features and we were really looking forward to sitting outside in the evenings but I was notified it was broken a few days before our arrival. The yard was perfect for some outside cricket and soccer and the swings were a mega hit. Loved the location right by the estuary with easy walks and swims. We couldn't find any of the kids games/toys that was mentioned in the house write up which was a shame as I didn't bring many games because of this. There were also hardly any power plugs in the rooms and none in bathrooms. But overall this house was a perfect set up and size for this large group. The host was very responsive to all messages and in a timely manner. Thanks very much, we will be back!

The BBQ and the smoker were very dirty Oven had not been cleaned No blind in one room . Had to use a towel Blind chains were broken in two rooms Still had a good time

Great stay! Perfect size for our large family.

The layout for a big group was perfect. Never felt crowded and had everything we needed. Would recommend and be keen to come back to this beauty.

Beautiful home. Family getaway for a week to celebrateour dad 70th birthday. Perfect size, and space, enough beds for everyone. There were 30 of us altogether adults and kids all under one roof. But we still took extra bedding (air beds and linens) House is very spacious. 3min walk to beach. Beautiful area. Would recommend for family group getaway. Host was very lovely to communicate with.

Yasmin was very easy to communicate with, thank you. The house is perfect for big groups. Has lots of space for doing different things. Location is perfect - close to the beach, convenience stores, and restaurants. It is also clean and tidy. We enjoyed our weekend there.

It was perfect for our 52nd Wedding Anniversary celebration with all our family (5 children and partners, and 11 grandchildren). Great “super bach” which was superbly equipped for cooking, sleeping and enjoying our family, and great access to the very safe beach. It is the second time we have stayed there and we recommend it without reservation. We hope to return in 2 years time.

We have used this superb property twice now over the Christmas period. It's absolutely perfect in so many ways. We are a family of 20, ranging from 1 to 86. Bedrooms with air con, ample bathrooms, fabulous outdoor area, location and parking, good kitchen - although lacking some basic utensils and microwave. Highly recommend this property.

Great place and location for a get together of friends and family. Room for everyone with easy living spaces to enjoy relaxing and having fun.

Fantastic layout for a large family gathering. Fun was had by all 🤗

Wonderful big house suitable for our large group. Walkable to the golf course and club, as well as small shop and bottle store. Everything we needed for a great trip! Thank you.

Collie's house is a great place for getting together with family or friends. Plenty space to relax and comfortable rooms and beds. Location is good and close to shops, restaurants and golf course.

A really good location with plenty of space for various activities. The covered outdoor space was very useful. The fold out bed was not as comfortable as the other beds. We were surprised there was no microwave in the kiychen.

We had the best work trip with lots of space for collaboration and plenty of rooms for everyone.

Amazing accomodation for a large group of people. Kitchen well equipped, comfortable bedding and spacious socialising areas. Such a warm house in the winter!

We are a management team from an Auckland based NGO and we were doing Team Building work at a location near this property. It was such an amazing place to come back to at the end of the day. A lovely retreat where we could relax and connect. Highly recommended property.

Nice place to stay, well set up with most of the essentials . Some of the things missing was a microwave, a lack of toilet paper ( 3x rolls only available for 21 people)Firewood needed restocking BBQ was very dirty had to be cleaned prior to use, there was nowhere to put soap shampoo in showers except in floor. Apart from these small thing which could be easily rectified this was a very functional space for a large number of people.

Great size property with lots of areas for shared entertainment or spaces for quiet and relaxing while still being with others. Very good bedding options. Well planned central kitchen and good utilities. Internet was excellent. Warm, comfortable, modern and spacious. Child friendly home. Lots of interesting walks for the family. A very relaxing family retreat.

Vey good venue for larger groups/team building opportunities

Collie's Beach House accommodated our large group superbly, great open spaces, excellent location close to the estuary. Had everything we needed for a great weekend.

Tha place was very nice, we enjoyed our stay not only us adults but also the kids.

Very modern and spacious. the outdoor area is the ideal hang out place, even if the weather isn't great. Great location, nearby the beach and the shops. We'll definitely return.

This was the perfect house to enjoy all being together - lovely open plan, well stocked kitchen, large outdoor areas, and plenty of bedrooms. We all had a magical weekend - thank you so much !

Wonderful location. Handy to the beach. Great for extended families.

Communication with property manager was excellent, we had a few minor problems on arrival which were sorted out swiftly. House was well equipped and a pleasure to stay in. The location is fantastic. We had our Christmas Day at the property and it worked well for all 17 of us, plus parking for 2 boats, 1 campervan and 5 cars. I highly recommend this property.

Had a really good time and would come again in the future

Our stay was amazing we absolutely loved the outdoor space. The layout was open which allowed everyone to mingle. We will definitely go back. Thank you so much!
