About this property
Serene Cove Escape - Waipu Holiday Home
Inside, this charming bach features a living room bathed in natural light with stunning coastal views. Bifold doors open onto a sun-drenched deck, where you can relax and enjoy the soothing sights and sounds of the surrounding countryside. Three cosy bedrooms and a neat bathroom with a shower over bath make up for a relaxing stay.
When adventure calls, head to nearby Johnson Point, a hidden local gem with its serene estuary perfect for swimming and kayaking. Take a stroll through the dunes at low tide to discover a secluded white sand beach that feels like your own private escape— truly a scene straight from a postcard. You can also walk or cycle all the way to Waipu Cove beach on a new purpose-built track next to the road which can be accessed from the driveway entrance.
Whether you’re seeking a relaxing family retreat or a nostalgic coastal escape, Serene Cove Escape offers the perfect blend of charm, privacy, and adventure for your next holiday.
Please take care on the deck, as there is a 1m drop in some areas without a full barrier.
Pets are welcome, but the property is not fully fenced. Pets are not permitted on furniture or beds and should be supervised at all times.
Two children's life jackets are provided with the kayaks. Guests are encouraged to bring their own well-fitting life jackets for safety.
