The location is amazing, beachfront Matapouri is stunning. Owners great to deal with, property was reasonably well equiped, having a (clothes) dryer would be a great addition. The reason for only 3 stars, was that the property was damp (& smelled damp) and in some spots it was actually leaking on internal walls/ranch slider. We mentioned it to owners, they were aware of it and said they’ve tried to get it fixed, but has been challenging/problematic. We paid almost $500/night for our stay, which is high for a damp and leaking property, even if it is stunning beachfront. May stay again but likely only in peak of summer (where likely to not have any rain).
