About this property

High Water Beach House, absolute beach front

A genuine beach front holiday home, just walk onto the sand from the grass, no roads to cross, no reserves to walk through.

Perfectly positioned on the long gentle curve of this golden sand beach, you can launch your boat just down the road and watch your children play in the water from the deck.

Upstairs are four large bedrooms, main bathroom, separate toilet, the open plan living/dining room and full kitchen. Expansive decking on two sides completes the picture.

Downstairs is the laundry, large rumpus/games room, second kitchen and another three beds (queen bed and bunks). A bathroom and separate toilet service this area.

Cot and high chair available upon request.

Amazing beach house that sleeps 13, well equipped so that you can have a fabulous beach holiday.

Plenty of room for your boat and beach toys.

Plenty of outdoor furniture, BBQ and three kayaks available for use.

Oakura Bay is well serviced with a local dairy, fuel and a takeaway.

The famous Gallery and Cafe Helena Bay Hill is only 15 minutes away - fantastic coffee, breakfasts, lunches, morning and afternoon teas. Check out there website.

Oakura Bay is great for boating - you can fish, dive and there is also a water ski lane at the northern end of Oakura Bay.

You can also look to join a boat charter - fish, dive or just cruise.

Diving - the immediate coastline boasts great diving and just 22 kms offshore lies the world famous Poor Knights Islands.

A great place for a family holiday - parents please note that children can walk directly onto the beach and hence into the water - adult supervision required for children who are unable to swim.

Extras: Cleaning (Required, NZ$100.00 per stay); Linen (Optional, NZ$15.00 per person);

First whānau vacation
Our whānau had an absolute blast on our first vacation during Waitangi week. The spacious house is located along the beach front which made tanning on the loungers convenient, while I monitored my children who spent there days kayaking, boogy boarding, building sand castles, collecting shells and exploring. We also got to see Dolphins swimming in the bay near. The 2 stores nearby (literally 5 houses away) has everything you need; fully stocked dairy/petrol station and a Takeaways/cafe/koha shed. The home itself has everything a growing whānau needs to have a memorable time away; surround speakers for music, bbq, fire pit to cook smores, boogy boards, kayaks, cards, binoculars, an outside heated shower to prevent sandy children from entering indoors with tonnes of carparking space. Highly recommend and will definitely be coming back!!
