Glamping

Our massages are a blend of Swedish and Thai practices, using fusions of natural bees wax and plant oils designed to help you relax, de-stress and find a harmonious sense of wellbeing.

You can choose to have your massage in the massage room at our house or on a portable massage table in your luxury tent. The latter option is weather dependent. To get the most benefit from your massage you will combine it with our forest-water experience and a meditation.

A typical massage takes about 60 minutes and longer sessions are available on request.

Value:

60 minutes - $60.00

90 minutes - $90.00

120minutes - $120.00

You can add any of our services and extras when booking your accommodation!

Maunga Iti, means 'little hills' in Maori, is a large bush block just inland from the stunning Tutukaka coastline. At an easy 2 1/4 hour drive from Auckland, this delectable slice of kiwi paradise makes the perfect escape for weary city folk looking to recharge and relax.

Maunga Iti Wellnes Retreat is owned by Stefan and Ira Seitzer, who have spent the last 20 years creating a private bushland retreat, complete with bush tracks, a pristine fresh water stream and native birds.

The luxury tent is perfectly positioned on the top of a small hill, with dreamy views out over bushland to the ocean and islands beyond. The interior incorporates hand-crafted furniture and a queen-sized bed with Egyptian cotton sheets and natural bedding. At night, a wood-burning stove makes the space warm and cosy. When it's warm, sleep with the tent open, and soak up the sounds of the bush and the view of the moonlight on the ocean.

An outdoor bath is set in a prime position at the front of the deck, looking out toward the Hen and Chicken islands. Access from the back of the tent takes you straight out to your enclosed ensuite bathroom and camp kitchen with on tap hot water. Now that's luxury accommodation.

If you can tear yourself away from the comfort and tranquility of your tent, you'll find a range of things to do on and around the property. Maunga Iti has a number of bush walking tracks to enjoy, ranging from 20 - 45 minutes in length. Just down the road is a ridge-way section of New Zealand's famous Te Araroa walking track (which runs the entire length of the country). There's a raft of other activities in the area to take advantage of too; diving or snorkeling at the Poor Knights Marine Reserve, surfing at Sandy Bay, even big game fishing at Tutukaka.
