My boyfriend and I wanted to get away for a couple of days on our birthday and Nina & Tony’s tepee was the ideal destination. Nina kindly offered to upgrade us to the larger tepee, free of charge, as we were the only guests on the campsite for the first night.
The tepee itself was reasonably large, very clean, with comfortable, soft bedding. The extra ambient touches - fairy lights, solar lighting leading up to the bathrooms, marshmallows with the fire pit - helped complete the already idyllic experience of being in the bush, surrounded by birdsong and nature. We were big fans of the hammock (for reading!) and outdoor lounge which had an easy-to-use firepit and lots of loungers. Bathrooms were also very clean and definitely of the ‘glamping’ variety, with nice plants and soaps.
Nina & Tony themselves were very friendly, helpful and communicative. Nina supplied us fresh towels the next day and playing cards which we’d forgotten. The portable power bank and torch given in the basket was also useful.
Overall this was a really great value experience I would recommend to anyone. Location is very close to central Matakana and beaches, so we went out for swims and dinner in the restaurants both days. We really hope to be able to stay there again.
