Home Away From Home - Ruakaka Escape
Furnished with comfort in mind, this spacious retreat offers open-plan living, dining, and kitchen areas that flow seamlessly out to the sunny deck through large glass doors. Step outside to enjoy stunning views over the fields and out to the ocean, with plenty of outdoor seating, a BBQ, and a spa pool — perfect for soaking in the fresh coastal air.
Inside, unwind in the light-filled lounge with a Smart TV (with Freeview) and unlimited Wi-Fi to keep you connected or entertained. For a bit of friendly competition, the garage has a table tennis table and dart board — great for family fun, rain or shine.
