A truly unique place to stay, perfect for a summer getaway in the middle of wine country. We considered cancelling our trip due to poor weather, but Jo convinced us to stay anyway, and we did not regret it. Not only is the yurt extremely cosy and beautifully furnished inside, the rest of the private space has such high quality amenities, it beats the vast majority of hotels we've stayed in. The kitchen is fully equipped, the bathroom is well designed, while the cherry on top is the outdoor tub and the fireplace. Couldn't ask for more. Thanks so much, Jo, especially for the recommendations for local places to eat in your guidebook — this helped us make the most of our visit to Matakana, despite less than ideal conditions.
