Casa Playa de los osos | Coopers Beach Sea Views
Escape to Casa Playa de Los Osos (The Beach House of the Bears)
Welcome to your private sanctuary. When you book Casa Playa de Los Osos, you get exclusive use of this entire 3-bedroom holiday home, complete with panoramic ocean views, a full family bathroom, and a convenient extra toilet.
From the moment you slide open the glass doors, the stress of the city dissolves. Shake up an espresso martini at your dedicated cocktail station, step onto the expansive timber deck, and watch the sun set over the sweeping coastline of Doubtless Bay.
You haven’t just booked a vacation rental; you’ve arrived at a classic Kiwi holiday home that perfectly blends relaxed coastal charm with the modern, premium perks you actually need.
Hosted by "The Bears"
Welcome to our personal haven. As your hosts, Paul & Darryl (aka "The Bears"), we designed this home as our ultimate escape from Auckland life. It’s not a sterile hotel; it’s a home filled with art, character, and the things we love most: excellent coffee, spectacular views, and total relaxation.
Why Guests Love Staying Here
The Ultimate "Work-from-Paradise" Setup: Need to check in with the office? We’ve installed uncapped 1GB Fibre Internet—blazing fast and highly reliable for Zoom or Teams. Unique to Casa Playa, we offer two separate dedicated workstations (one in a quiet study nook, one in the private single bedroom). Both feature high-resolution external monitors and inspiring views of the bay. You can both take calls simultaneously in your own space while looking out over the water. It is the perfect remote work base for co-working couples, professionals, or locums working at Kaitaia Hospital.
Relaxation Ready: Enjoy uninterrupted vistas of Coopers Beach and the bay from the lounge, kitchen, and Master Bedroom. Drift off in the Master Suite featuring an opulent King bed and direct deck access.
Premium Touches: We proudly provide Huia Skin Care amenities (by HealthPak). Not only are they luxurious and earth-friendly, but 5% of their purchase price is donated to the NZ Forest & Bird Society.
A Classic Kiwi Kitchen: While the kitchen retains its classic holiday home vibe, we’ve packed it with modern joy. You’ll find an espresso machine for your morning brew, high-quality cookware, and a fully equipped cocktail station for your evening sundowner.
Location: The Best of the Far North
You are ideally positioned to explore Northland:
Walk to the Beach: A gentle 8-10 minute stroll takes you down to the safe, golden sands of Coopers Beach.
Your "Crowd-Free" Hub: We are the perfect strategic base camp for exploring the North. Enjoy a scenic 60-minute drive to the Bay of Islands for a day trip, then retreat to the peace, privacy, and quiet of Cable Bay—far from the tourist crowds.
Local Conveniences: The supermarket, gourmet butcher, liquor store, and cafes are just minutes down the hill.
Adventure on your Doorstep: A short drive takes you to the historic Mangonui village (famous for its fish and chips) or the stunning white sands of the Karikari Peninsula.

About the host
Hosted by Paul Ryan
"As your hosts, Paul and Darryl, we'd like to personally welcome you to Casa Playa de los Osos, our private holiday home in the stunning Far North of New Zealand.
We created this beach house as our personal escape from a busy life in Auckland, and we've designed it to be the ultimate place to relax and unwind. The name itself, 'Casa Playa de los Osos' (Beach House of the Bears), is a tribute to our nickname and the fun, personal touches you'll find throughout the home, including our collection of bear art.
Our favourite part of this property is the incredible sea view from the deck. It's the perfect spot to enjoy a morning coffee or an evening cocktail while watching the boats pass by. It is this exact feeling of tranquil escape that we want to share with our guests.
We've put our hearts into making this a truly special destination and we hope you create lasting memories at our beloved beach house."
