About this property

Tui's Rest Whangamata- DOGS WELCOME, suitable for families

2 bedroom plus sleepout, comfortable and affordable bach with heat pump. We are in a quiet location only one street away from the estuary (400m), and a short walk to the beach. We are also only a short walk to the golf course and the Estuary Store/takeaways.
Popular with young families, our yard is private and fully fenced, with plenty of room for the kids to play. We have a gas BBQ and outdoor setting on the large deck.
The Smart TV has freeview, AVI player, and connection to your YouTube/ Netflix account, plus DVD player. We have a good collection of books, games, toys, blocks, and puzzles. We have a kayak, kick scooter, and a beach cruiser bike for renter use.
We have a great heating system to keep you toasty in the winter, in both the house and sleep-out. We find the beds comfortable.

Dolce Gusto Coffee pod maker available. BYO pods.
This is a comfortable family bach. If you are expecting hotel quality please book elsewhere. The bach has 2 bedrooms inside, plus the sleep-out. The house and sleep-out are insulated and in good condition. All beds have duvets and pillows.

The fencing is not dog proof if your dog is determined to escape. Please bring rope if you will be leaving your dog unattended. The yard has trees for shade.

PARKING: There is off-street parking for two vehicles in the driveway. There's plenty on-street parking also.
Special conditions:
** DOGS: On negotiation only. Please let me know how many dogs you want to bring. Please remove your dogs deposits so the yard is clean for the next family.

Relaxation time at the beach

Ideal spot for a summer break, with beach, town and estuary all within close proximity, and a nice quiet location. May well head back next year but for a few more days.

About the host

Why they chose this property

I love Whangamata with a passion. This house appealed to me as it has a fully fenced yard on a private site, and is insulated. In a bach town those things can be hard to come by. Its in a quiet street, close to the estuary. At night when the air gets still you can hear the ocean. Its my little slice of heaven.

What makes this property unique

We have a plum tree, feijoa, guava, lemon, and a very young apple tree. The site has shaded places to sit, and plenty of outdoor furniture. Its a short walk to Blackies cafe in Williamson park, or the estuary.
