About this property

Spa and a 5 minute walk to the water

Beautifully renovated, centrally located family bach only five minutes walk from the estuary beach. Now has a large spa and new furniture! Multiple cabins on the property for large groups or two families to have some privacy.

Note: if you are booking for a large group of adults please make contact prior to booking.

Uses tank water so please limit water usage.

The north facing living area in the main features a high end, well equipped kitchen with a massive awning window the width of the kitchen that opens up to the outdoor area - great for serving food and drinks from. At the other end of the living area, there's a day bed with a matching awning window that opens out to a bar leaner. There are two bedrooms in this house (one a queen and the other a bunk with a double on the bottom), the kitchen, dining and living, a bathroom, and the laundry - further rooms are in the other cabins on the property, more info below.

The living area flows out to a spacious deck with wide bi-folding doors for seamless indoor-outdoor flow - step off the deck into the spa! The deck has electronic louvres to choose the amount of sun you'd like and to protect from any rain, as well as having inbuilt lights and outdoor heaters. There's a a hanging cane cocoon chair, large outdoor table, outdoor furniture, and a BBQ.

Step off the deck onto a massive flat lawn, perfect for lawn games and parking for cars and boats alike.

Further along the property is the standalone 'boat shed', with a queen bed and an ensuite. Along from that is the cabin, which houses two bedrooms (one a queen, the other a bedroom more suited to kids with a single bed and a bunk bed), a kitchenette, and a shower and toilet.

It’s about 600 metres to the swimmable estuary, and a five minute drive to the surf beach as well as many other estuary beaches. Central to the shops, cafes, the golf course and the boat ramp..

Time out in Mangawhai
Everything we needed for a relaxing weekend was here. The 3 separate units were ideal for our 3 families. The verandah area on the main house was excellent for relaxing while enjoying a spa or cocktails or both. The big opening window from the kitchen makes an excellent bar area. We would definitely recommend this property for anyone wanting a quiet time away from the city to enjoy the little town of Mangawhai. We will likely come back again.
