About the host
Hosted by Larissa
Kia ora! My family and I live on a rural lifestyle block on the East Coast, making the most of life with our three kids, plenty of cats and dogs, and a love for the outdoors.
Why they chose this property
We’re coasties! Born and bred in Tolaga Bay, where the ocean meets the land, and life is as real as it gets. This isn’t just a place we live; it’s a way of life. Out here on the East Coast, things move a little slower, the air is fresher, and the people are as genuine as they come.
It’s a safe, family-friendly place, where kids grow up barefoot, riding bikes until the streetlights come on, and everyone knows your name. Sunrises over the bay are worth waking up for, and the night skies are untouched by city lights, offering a view of the stars you won’t find anywhere else.
This place has heart, history, and the kind of beauty you don’t just see—you feel. If you’re looking for a break from the noise of the world, this is it. Welcome to Tolaga Bay.

What makes this property unique
This is where the hustle pauses and the phone scrolling hits different. Whether you’re burnt out, heartbroken, here for work or a much-needed break — our cosy 3-bedroom cottage is your reset button.
This is the place where pants are optional, the WiFi is free, and the fireplace makes you sweaty...not your anxiety. Add a heat pump, free Netflix, high-pressure shower, and a full kitchen for sad girl soup or Sunday feeds — and you’ve got THE vibe.
It's lowkey chill for workers, tangi-goers, and anyone needing to just be...without judgement.
You’ll leave feeling lighter — or at least very well-rested.
