Maka Property offers spacious, characterful houses where the whole family or group can stay together — from a countryside farmhouse near Hobbiton to the Bay of Plenty coast at Ohiwa.
See our homes Enquire & book directOne house. The whole family.
No splitting the group across motel rooms or separate units. Every Maka home is chosen for space — room to gather, room to spread out, and room for everyone to actually be together. Ideal for family reunions, multi-generational holidays, and groups travelling as one.
Two very different escapes — high-country farm quiet and easy coastal living — both built to sleep a crowd.
A spacious farmhouse set on a working dairy farm, with sweeping countryside views, an orchard, two living areas (one with a projector screen) and a kids' playground outside. Twenty minutes from Hobbiton and central to Hamilton, Tauranga and Rotorua — a proper base for the whole family.
A relaxed, generously sized coastal home a short stroll from Ohiwa Harbour — one of the Bay of Plenty's best-kept secrets for kayaking, fishing and long estuary sunsets. Four bedrooms and two living areas, with plenty of parking for the boat and trailer.
Whole homes, booked direct, hosted by people who live nearby and care about your stay.
Big homes with multiple bedrooms and living areas, so the whole group stays together instead of scattered across rooms.
Deal directly with the owners — no platform service fees added on top, and a straight answer to your questions.
Self check-in, fast Wi-Fi and full kitchens as standard — plus local tips from hosts who know the area well.
Every Maka stay begins with a complimentary gift basket of drinks and snacks waiting for you on arrival — and the kitchen comes stocked with the basics you always need: cooking oil, butter, salt and pepper, tea and coffee. Just arrive, settle in, and put the kettle on.
Two of the North Island's best holiday corners — the rolling Waikato countryside near Tīrau and Hobbiton, and the quiet Bay of Plenty coast at Ohiwa.
Both within easy reach of Hamilton, Tauranga and Rotorua, and both perfect for a big group getaway — a family reunion, a milestone birthday, or just the whole crew away together.
