Your serene seaside getaway awaits, welcome to Roberts Retreat in Mangawhai Heads!
The back of the property looks across to the estuary but this cannot be accessed due to the drop off at the edge of the section. Adults should closely supervise young children while outside as there is a straight drop after the flax bushes.
As the property has unfenced access to the estuary, adults should closely supervise young children while outside to ensure they are safe around water.
Please note a bond may be charged at certain times of the year. One of our team members will contact you if this is required for your booking.

Karen 
“Thank you for a very relaxing holiday with fantastic view of the sea”
- Karen, August 2018 -
Tania “Fabulous stay for our group of adults.”
Location is spot on and just an easy stroll to shops or beach. Warm house considering its the middle of winter. Comfy bedding. And most importantly you can't beat the all day sun and views along with all the comforts of home.
- Tania, July 2022Colette “Great house, good location.”
- Colette, February 2021Tracey “A fantastic stay, million dollar views and a fantastic hub for so many activities”
- Tracey, January 2020Ashreen “Roberts Retreat provided for the perfect mini family getaway.”
Loved the spacious house with plenty of amenities on offer and the views were to die for. Such a convenient spot with shops in very close proximity yet still peaceful being so close to the estuary. We absolutely loved our stay and will be sure to return. Janice, the Property Manager was excellent to deal with.
- Ashreen, July 2021Garry “Amazing location and views, spacious, comfortable, great stress-free holiday accommodation including large garage with ping-pong table for the rainy days we had.”
Thanks!
- Garry, July 2021Nicholas “We had a fantastic stay here!”
The house has three great big bedrooms and a fourth huge master bedroom with ensuite. The views from the lounge, kitchen and master bedroom out over the estuary are amazing. The house is very well equipped with everything you would need and there is a lovely garden too. The only minor feedback I would give is that the hot water in the showers wasn’t working very well, but didn’t really matter as we were happy to cool off from the heat during our stay. Overall, definitely a five stars place with some of the best views in town
- Nicholas, January 2024Alexandra “An incredible home in a brilliant location.”
Highly recommended.
- Alexandra, May 2022Wendy “Super place to stay, awesome views, would highly recommend”
- Wendy, July 2022John “This property was absolutely amazing, and far beyond our expectations.”
Property manager was incredibly friendly and helpful, a fantastic space, great view and everything you could need. We will be back!
- John, August 2020Carla “We had the best couple of nights here!”
The home was so lovely and exactly what we needed. Simple and comfortable, home away from home. And the views were outstanding! Everything was so close and walkable and the neighbours were wonderful to chat to. We're already looking at dates to come back. Thank you so much!
- Carla, July 2022Claudia “Had a great stay at Roberts Retreat.”
Lovely house great location close to water and boat ramp. House was generous in size with great views and lovely and warm.
- Claudia, October 2019Candice “The property was lovely, spacious with amazing views.”
We had a wonderful stay and would come again. Two small negatives: The floors were quite dirty as walking barefoot collected lots of debris on our feet, which would have been ok, except we paid an astronomical cleaning fee, so would have expected a very clean experience upon our arrival. Secondly, my husband, daughter and I all got quite bad splinters from sitting/playing on the deck so it needs to be sanded for safety.
- Candice, September 2022Hi Candice, Thank you very much for your feedback we are glad you enjoyed the amazing views and the spaciousness of the property. We appreciate you taking the time to provide us insight into what was disappointing with your stay. We have passed along your feedback on some of the improvements that can be made to the local team and owner. We hope to host you again in the future. Bachcare
Steven “We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay while preparing for our wedding, outstanding views outstanding facility.”
- Steven, November 2022Bronwyn “Great property!”
Superb view and location and good sized house perfect for a large family or a few couples. Lovely and clean with plenty of crockery etc and off street parking. Only thing missing is outdoor furniture and take your jandals in summer as the lawn is full of onehunga weed so beware the prickles. Would definitely recommend and stay there again.
- Bronwyn, November 2022Gordon “Lovely sunny family home.”
Large living area, beautiful views, plenty of bathrooms (ideal for a family) situated within walking distance to everything we needed.
- Gordon, August 2019Nicola “I thought the description of the house were accurate.”
It had everything we needed, and the view is magnificent.
- Nicola, April 2023Ravi “Thank you for a wonderful stay.”
Thoroughly enjoyed it. The property was perfect, clean, spacious with 3 million dollar views.
- Ravi, October 2023Machelien “Fabulous house to relax and enjoy the amazing views and so close to the beach.”
Loved it. Would stay there again.
- Machelien, September 2018Martin “Position with a view to remember for ever.”
Lots of options with the bedrooms. Overall really happy with our choice!! Easy escape from Auckland...
- Martin, October 2019Lorrance “Fabulous location and roomy for family”
- Lorrance, November 2019Tracey “Another relaxing stay.”
Sweeping views of the estuary, which are forever changing throughout the day.
- Tracey, January 2019Paula “A spacious house with amazing views of the ocean and estuary.”
Simply a fantastic base for a family holiday. Shops, cafes and the beach all within easy walking distance. Thanks for offering such a lovely home for holidayers.
- Paula, January 2020Margaret “The property has lovely sea views in a lovely area with expansive windows for light and the space was huge.”
I cannot think of any negatives to say.
- Margaret, February 2020Felicity “What an incredible view and piece of land!”
I am a Mangawhai local who had guests to stay, very generous/impressed having 3 bathrooms in the house, would have loved to stay longer. Couple of bits of feedback from the girls was the deep cleaning jobs that seem to be overdue - under beds, sink drains, behind doors. And quite a few of the lightbulbs were blown. And it would be amazing to have a bit more outdoor furniture - with a view like that, who doesn't want to be out there to enjoy it.
- Felicity, February 2024Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback and we are sorry that on this occasion the cleanliness of the property was not to our usual high standard. We will organise a deep clean to be done at the property to ensure more in-depth cleaning is completed to ensure this does not happen again. Bachcare
Heather & Mark “Great views, warm house for the middle of winter.”
Large, spacious house. Everything we could have needed was available. Lounge furniture dated & a little low but comfortable.
- Heather & Mark, June 2021Clare “We love Roberts Retreat and have stayed there a few times now.”
The location & views are awesome.Pity about Bachcare customer service.
- Clare, March 2022Edson “The low pressure when using the shower's hot water must be fixed.”
I have seen some complaints regarding this and it is still not fixed. This is the only thing that I can complain about. All the rest is excellent.
- Edson, August 2022Lesley “We did love the views and location.”
We felt that it could have been a bit cleaner but it didn't really worry us. I found the stove really difficult to operate but apart from that the kitchen facilities were good. Maybe some instructions for the stove would be helpful. The two big beds were really comfy. Some sun loungers on the deck in summer would be lovely as the view is just fantastic. All in all we had a really nice stay. I suppose just a few funky little touches would make a huge difference to the ambience of this property.
- Lesley, May 2023Stefan “We had a fantastic few days at Roberts retreat and would highly recommend the location and property to others, the views are exceptional.”
The downstairs is great for getting all your valuables out of sight and under cover. One letdown was the water pressure in all the showers, so much so that we lodged a fault with the property managers. We have no issue paying the requested rent but are unlikely to rebook unless work is done to generate a reasonable flow of water, this is well below what we would expect.
- Stefan, December 2023Thank you for taking the time to provide this feedback as we are always working on improving the care of our properties Bachcare
Kane “Great location with amazing view and locality to shops and estuary.”
The View is amazing. Only downsize is the dated and sparse furniture. The property manager was great friendly and made the stay welcoming!
- Kane, October 2020Paula “A fantastic location - close to all amenities and the estuary.”
Two things letting the overall experience down - cleanliness and old/uncomfortable furniture.
- Paula, January 2021Rachael “Property needs a good clean.”
The extractor fan filters were full of flies. Fridge was dirty. Mattress protectors and duvets need a clean/replacing. Highly recommend bach care source a better cleaner.
- Rachael, January 2023Thank you, Racheal, for your review. At Bachcare we take cleaning very seriously and have strict guidelines in place to maintain our high standards. We are sorry that in this case, this was not what you experienced. We will follow up on this with our local team along with any other maintenance that may be required. Bachcare
