We stayed here as one of our many hotels/bed and breakfasts on our trip to new zealand. What a hidden gem. It was absolutely stunning and had so many special extras- heated floors and towel warmer, rain shower head, etc. The host was very accommodating as well, providing us with snacks and breakfast, as well as local recommendations. Very pleased!

We stayed here for one night, on our way to Paihia. When we had been there for a short while we wondered why why our agent didn't book is at least four days. There is a lot to do in the area and we wished we had the opportunity to explore. We were very fortunate to have stayed at this lodge. Much thought has been given to the guest accommodation. It is beautifully appointed, even down to the crockery and glassware available in the room. Breakfast was delicious. You will not be pestered by Robin and Diane, but you will be looked after discreetly, and hope to return one day.
We only stayed here one night but thoroughly enjoyed it. Our hosts, Robin and Dianne couldn't have been nicer. Wonderful location, beautiful views, an excellent room and a lovely breakfast!
We highly recommend this B&B to anyone requiring a top class service.
Sugarloaf's hilltop location provides stunning views. The rooms are generous and beautifully appointed. Our hosts were friendly and welcoming and provided a great breakfast! - everything you could wish for from a "boutique" B&B !
Delightful hosts, generous and elegant rooms, generous welcome-refreshment, stunning view from hilltop over vineyards, meadows and sea-skyline.
A very nice place to stay longer to enjoy the garden, the skyline of vineyards,
the near beaches, the village of Matakana and surrounding area with its lovely shops and restaurants.
During our two night stay in Diane and Robin's marvellous hilltop lodge, we felt we had found a gem from which to explore the beautiful area of Matakana. Our chic cottage suite was beautifully decorated and comfortably appointed, with many thoughtful touches. These new owners have refurbished their lodge with an attention to detail that was impressive. The landscaping on the approach up the drive and around the lodge is beautiful. The view was simply stunning over the fields and vineyards, pockets of forest, and out to the ocean beyond. Diane brought a beautiful tray of pre-dinner treats and wine to our private deck overlooking the countryside, and Robin prepared wonderful breakfasts to our order. Their warmth complemented the beautiful countryside retreat they have created. A highly recommended stay.
