About this property

Te Moana - A perfectly situated and homely bach.

A perfect location for anyone who wants to make some very special 'kiwi' memories or couples who just want to get away from it all. Less than a minute walk to the beach and 5 minutes stroll to the local village. Oakura offers cafes, hotel, grocery store,petrol station, hairdresser, beauty outlet, gift shops, fish and chip shop,pharmacy,golf course, tennis courts,surfing lessons. There are also plenty of short walking tracks around the village.

Guests will find themselves in a fully equipped and self contained bach with; electric blankets, heaters, washing machine, BBQ, dryer, Sky TV, high chair, portable cot, private access and off street parking, boogie boards and sporting gear are also included for anyone wanting a bit of extra fun down on the beach. In respects to the beds, guests will enjoy two beds; one double bed and one queen sized bed both outfitted with quality linen.

Although we live in the house above the bach we aim to give our guests plenty of privacy and space to enjoy ‘Tara’dise (as we call it) so you wont be seeing us during you stay. However if you do have questions or need help we're always happy to help with advice, planning etc

New Plymouth Airport is less than half an hour drive away, shuttles can be organised to and from airport on request. Your own transport for getting around the area is recommended but for people without their own vehicle a city bus service travels 3 or 4 times a day between Oakura and New Plymouth.

Minimum stay: 2 nights
Special conditions:

Beautiful location right near the beach. Owners had good communication throughout our stay.
Great clean and open space. Very private even with the owners upstairs. Definitely recommend staying if in this area. Nice town much quieter than New Plymouth.

Great for small families or three couples
Great place to stay to explore Taranaki with the soothing waves, chocolate biscuits, fresh fliwers on the table, milk for coffee and a nespresso coffee machine. Special mention to Roz who made sure we arrived safely and found everything.

Highly recommended
Wonderful stay on the top floor, the owner's side. One of the best stays we have had in many years of home sharing. Would not hesitate to stay there again. Lots of space. Kitchen is first rate with everything we could possibly need to prepare our meals. The location is fantastic with being close to town but being tucked inside the block, made for a peaceful stay. The views of the ocean and of sunset were wonderful. Communication was very easy and responses to any question came quickly. A model host.

Lovely Te Moana.
Fabulous place to stay, comfortable, well equiped and a short stroll to a wonderful beach. Great communication with our hosts who did everything possible to make our stay enjoyable. The four of us (grandparents with two grandchildren) thoroughly recommend this lovely holiday home.
