Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Ok, if you DON’T like intelligent conversation, home cooked and excellent cuisine, neighbours dropping by, friendly engaging hosts, views par excellence, oh almost forgot the odd bottle of wine or three + + then don’t come here.

The MOW and I dropped in for a few nights and well it was just like catching up with old (careful) sorry mature friends. Trevor and Kaye are the penultimate hosts with you as guests their primary focus. Their home is your home and that is what is feels like.

We couldn’t fault anything except the weather but after all it was hardly their fault.

We arrived "home" welcomed warm heartedly by hosts we never met, welcomed with open arms, a night of amazing award winning wine and food, fun, laughs, and amazing travel stories were shared. We were entertained the minute we arrived to the minute we left with wine tour - lesson in golf..... Close to home for a get away weekend...

THANK YOU Trevor and Kay - will certainly be back!!

A stunning location for a special weekend with friends or family. Trevor & Kay are hosts who make you feel very welcome in their delightful home. Their hospitality was second to none from the moment we walked in the door and were welcomed with a glass of wine. Dinner was prepared by Kay & Trevor and was superb. When we booked we were asked what wines we liked and they had these cooling in the fridge for us. The rooms were lovely with everything you could need, breakfast was second to none. A tour of Trevor’s wine cellar and a then a challenge to hit a golf ball over the road. You will not be disappointed if you choose to spend time in this lovely home. Thanks again Trevor Kay...Christine, Jenny & Maree.

Kay and Trevor make you feel right at home from the minute you arrive! The guest rooms are very well decorated and have everything you could need. The highlight has to be the cosy and home from home feel. Food was superb! Drinks, chats, stories and views to name a few are outstanding! This is definitely a 5 star (6 if you could do it). You will not be disappointed and only by visiting and being VERY well looked after by Kay and Trevor will you get to appreciate this fantastic place. We will be back again very soon!
Thanks again
Kev and Katy

We were in need on some relaxation and to recharge when we arrived at Matahui Lodge. And we got that and more! As well as great kiwi hospitality and food! The cooked breakfast was fantastic. It was great to have touches of luxury like wine from the vines and local produce, and quality magazines, What a treat. Thank you so much to Kaye and Trevor for making our stay so special.

We visit Marahui Lodge each time we go to New Zealand. The minute you enter the main gates you are overwhelmed by the spectacular view and the vineyards fanning out across the land.

Trevor & Kay are the most wonderful hosts: nothing is too much for them and whatever your requests there are no extra charges. They're both excellent cooks; Trevor will supply wonderful wines and it is all done with such generosity.

Trevor and Kay are a lovely couple who invite you into their home and look after you superbly. They are friendly, helpful and at no time intrusive. The lodge is furnished nicely, with stunning views across the lovely garden and vines to the water. We were treated to wonderful meals and really good wine as well as great conversation. I would highly recommend this lodge.

Trevor and Kay host guests like royalty. They truly care for your interests and make the stay more than the ordinary good B&B. We elected to have dinner there with another couple joining us making it a party of six. Trevor grows his own grapes and he is proud of his viticulture skills as he should be. He heard we liked a certain style wine and went to a local wine store to purchase the special wine for before dinner drinks and appetizers. Can't get any better. My wife says this is the best B&B she has ever stayed and I agree.

We spent this weekend in the beautiful Bay of Plenty. We were part of a 28 participant MG Car club "mini- rally" with the main day based around Matahui Lodge. Staying at the Lodge on the saturday night seemed logical and this grew to include the friday and sunday nights also. We arrived late afternoon on friday, somewhat hot and bedraggled, having travelled in the heat in an open MGA roadster. We were immediately welcomed, Trevor took his car out of the garage for us, and after a freshen up joined other guests for champagne and salmon. Bliss.
On Saturday, the most beautiful poached fruit, freshly made yogurt and fruit. My husband loved the full cooked breakfast.
We returned later in the afternoon with the fully MG entourage, and enjoyed Pride of Ownership and grass gymkhana on the lawn with scones and cream tea. We adjourned to the Lodge for drinks and salmon cured by Kay (stunning) The evening meal in the lodge for 28 was stunning. True hospitality.
Beautiful breakfasts,exquisite dinners and very comfortable accommodation with every need anticipated.
