About this property

Pukeko Crossing - Pataua South - Beaches, Estuary

This renovated bach is perfect for families or friends who want to enjoy time together. With estuary views, the upper level features an open-plan living and dining area, a brand-new kitchen, and a balcony that's ideal for taking in the sunset. The lower level has an outdoor kitchenette, a large BBQ, and direct access to the lush garden and outdoor entertaining area.

The upper level and bottom decks are ready for you to chill out while your steaks are on the Barbie. We love the different sitting areas in and out the house, so wherever the mood leads, you will find a cosy little nook to lay back while the children play safely in a fully fenced section.

If it is in the kitchen, you can use it; we provide tea, coffee, Olive oil and my selection of dried herbs and spices for you to use; please replace it for others to share and use. If you prefer fresh, we have that as well; nothing better than picking homegrown organic veg straight from the garden.

Follow your nose to the estuary, Frogtown Beach or paddle across the estuary to hit the waves at the surf beach.

Bring your boat (yes, we have a boat ramp where you can launch off) and bikes. If the fish aren't biting, see the sights. During the summer season, you can ride your bikes to Tahi Cafe to get your caffeine fix or ride to the motor camp shop for freshly baked bread, buns, fish& chips if you need to stock up; they do have a small line of groceries. Parua Bay Four Square is 15 minutes away.

For you to use during your stay: 3 kayaks & life jackets, some boogie boards, snorkel gear for the kids, swings hanging from the avocado tree, and a tot’s picnic table. A highchair and porta cot are available. We hope you have as much fun in our home as we do. Happy holidays.

Excellent extended family stay.
We stayed for a week over Christmas and enjoyed everything the property offered from the clean spacious rooms with comfortable beds, the modern bathroom amenities, to the well furnished living spaces inside and out. We had a 2 year old who was safely and well catered for also. The property is being progressively updated. It had everything we needed for a very comfortable home-away-from-home stay, and this will be made even more special with kitchen upgrades in the future. With baristas, cooks and chefs in the family group we were able to enjoy full use of the kitchen as-is. We came to relax and enjoy the location of beautiful Pataua South and achieved this effortlessly, but we also went away with fond memories of Mike and Mark's hosting. Our extended family group stay was made all the more special because of their warm welcome. We were well supported with their hospitality and knowledge of the area. They were truly wonderful neighbours to have. Many thanks to Mike, Mark and the home owners for hosting what became an excellent extended family stay for us all!
