About this property

Relax & Unwind at Wainui Creek Retreat a private & tranquil home near the beach

A peaceful, secluded spot surrounded by trees and a stream, just minutes from Manu Bay. Walk to the main beach, surf, or relax on the decks, in the cedar hot tub, by the outdoor fireplace, or in the rustic sauna. The house and grounds are full of character, with leafy gardens, birdlife, and a sheltered outdoor lounge and dining area for enjoying your stay in Raglan.

Wow! What an amazing place - more like a retreat

We had the most amazing stay at this property. Perfectly presented with all the amenities that are needed - it was hard to leave and do things outside the house itself…The communication with both the owners and the property manager Hayden was exceptional and everything we asked for was accommodated for.Thanks again for such a memorable trip
