An absolute gem on the Karikari Peninsula! If you are looking for an accommodation to explore the Northern tip of the Northland, look no more! My family booked two nights at this retreat so our family could explore the barely-touched Karikari peninsula, drive until the road runs out at Cape Reinga, sandboard the giant dunes of Te Paki, and drive the true coastal highway of Ninety Mile Beach... Since our days were packed with fun, we did not get to fully enjoy the retreat and since we liked it so much, we added an extra night! The highlights: the view from the master bedroom, from the jacuzzi, the BBQ, the peacefulness of the location, but above all the kindness and genuineness of our hosts: Vanessa and Steve! Super chilled, very responsive and so willing to share their wealth of knowledge and tips about the region! Our planned excursions for the day just got that much better thanks to their advices! Bonus: fresh eggs + Steve is quite a fisherman and he has a smoker 😉

Vanessa and Steve were amazing and generous hosts! From checkin to check out they were always seeing that we had everything that we needed. This was our first trip as a family and they provided everything we needed for having babies and small children. The unit was clean and tidy and the location was perfect for having quick access to several beaches nearby. Our only regret is that we didn't get to stay longer. We can't wait to plan our next visit!

Vanessa and Steve are very warm hearted and friendly people. They recommended us the most beautiful beaches, we went fishing with Steve - what a tasty snapper, and the sashimi was so yummy, they served us fruits, vegetables and eggs from the farm. A real Paradies and a great communication. The cottage is beautiful, very clean, comfortable beds and a stunning view. We enjoyed the spa a lot. If we come again to New Zealand, we definitely come back to Rangiputa Retreat. Thanks that we could stay at your place.

Fantastic stay at Rangiputa Retreat! Vanessa and Steve were awesome, the house was clean and tidy, we loved having visits from their dog Sandy and the cows AND Steve’s fishing guidance was excellent. We didn’t want to leave and will definitely be back!!!

So glad we found this gem! Such a beautiful location with so many beaches close by. Nice and private but also nice knowing someone is close by if needed. The space was perfect for us (family of 5) and kept the kids busy. Vanessa and Steve were awesome hosts. Very accomodating and friendly. Vanessa went out of her way to accomodate our young one. Will definitely be back again!
