Take me back!

This home ticks all the boxes. Warm, vibrant, great indoor outdoor flow with everything you need. We loved the games, bikes and sitting by the outdoor fire. Perfect for families - being able to close off from the hub of the home so little ones can sleep is fantastic. Loved our stay! We will be back.

Fantastic getaway

The perfect home for a family escape. Well appointed and modern, this home is perfect for smaller groups with easy walking access to beach, local shop and surf club. Very quiet neighbourhood with friendly neighbours. We stayed when the weather wasn’t amazing but a great selection of board games is available. Heat pump is a bonus too. Aimee is a great host!

Wonderful place to stay

Perfect beach house for a family or small group of friends. Quiet neighbourhood, and great place with several outdoor areas for shade or sun, and lots of spaces and comfy places to relax. It’s also a beautiful part of country. Would definitely rent again or recommend to friends. Easy stroll to the beach, and we loved the walk over the headland to Waimama Beach. Aimee was very helpful, and easily contactable for any queries. We would have loved to have stayed longer. Thanks again.
