Reviewed May 31, 2026Ellie was the consummate hostess and so interesting to chat with. Such a warm welcome. The accommodation was great. We had a very large room with a comfy bed and fluffy robes and slippers. A nice touch. The breakfast was lovely and really appreciated after an early morning start to catch the sunrise over the Shorebird sanctuary.
Nothing we didn't like, although be aware that the private bathroom is not an ensuite, it is just down the hallway.
10/10
Reviewed Apr 4, 2026Warm welcome received. Nice airy room, well presented. Great breakfast. Ellie was a great host, full of advice of where to go and do. We stayed here not to be too far from Auckland airport. In the morning we went to the Pukorokero Miranda Shorebird Centre in the morning, brilliant visit to see migration birds. Then headed to the airport. If you are doing any of these things I definitely recommend a stay here.

Advertised as private bathroom but it wasn't. Had to walk down corridor past other bedrooms to get to the bathroom. Also no covered bins for sanitary product disposal. Shouldn't be advertised as B&B. It's a house shared with host.

Reviewed Apr 16, 2025It was our 1st B&B stay and it was a lovely experience. Beautiful home and gardens. Everything was soo clean and bed was very comfortable. Thank you Ellie. You were very welcoming and gave us a delicious breakfast which was so appreciated.
The only thing that we found difficult was there not being any restaurants, take away etc to go to nearby to have something for dinner. Being a Monday nite everyone was closed. Unfortunately the pub, which we know is pretty good were also having a nite off. But we did survive 🤣😂❤

Reviewed Apr 5, 2025Lovely comfortable house, loved all the artwork. Ellie was a wonderful and welcoming host. Beds very comfortable, especially the pillows.

The room was very comfortable and very clean. The bathroom, although not ensuite, was excellent, The nice light continental breakfast was served in the pleasant dining room.

Reviewed May 1, 2024The location is quite a long way from the nearest settlement but it suited us fine as an overnight stop when travelling between the Bay of Islands and the Coromondel Peninsula. Ellie made us feel very welcome and she gave us some very good tips on what to see and do on the Coromandel.
The nearest restaurant was about 14 km away in Kaiaua so it was quite a long drive to get dinner after we'd arrived at Miranda Homestead. We would have stopped en route if we had known. On the plus side, the food in the Bay View hotel restaurant was pretty good. Might be worth adding a note to that effect to the property information.

Reviewed Apr 11, 2024The location was perfect for our purposes (an appointment in the Maramarua Forest). It would also be excellent for those interested in the birds at the Pukorokoro Bird Centre just down the road and for those looking for a comfortable stay in a rural setting. Being remote, it is a quiet location. Our host was lovely. She couldn't have been friendlier and provided a hearty breakfast. She also provided us with binoculars for our visit to the bird centre.
