About this property
Pukehina Retreat & Lodge
Our architecturally designed retreat, set amongst the stunning white sandy Pukehina beach has a relaxed, contemporary feel. Call it a home away from home. We have sourced high-quality beds, and have teamed these with high-quality linen to ensure your nights stay is restful and luxurious. All bedrooms open onto a large deck, overlooking the tranquil estuary. Two luxury outdoor baths are adjacent to a 20-metre private infinity lap pool. Pet and carpet free perfect for pet and dust allergy guests. Adjacent to the outdoor baths, there's a 20-meter lap pool available for your enjoyment. Take advantage of our fully equipped BLACK&WHITE beauty spa next door, in season vegetable garden, fully functional kitchen and laundry facilities. We weren’t joking when we called this retreat a home away from home. We have everything you need for your relaxing stay in Pukehina Beach, and we would be delighted to host you.

About the host
Hosted by Kerry Barugh
Hello and welcome. We’re Kerry and Kevin, passionate beach lovers living and working in the heart of Pukehina Beach. The stress-relieving ocean, salty air, and sandy beach always leave us feeling calm, at peace and at home. We’re both from Pukehina, so custom building the beautiful oasis we call our retreat, felt so right. We are in love with the lifestyle we live here, and the amazing community we’re surrounded by is just an added bonus!
Kerry runs BLACK&WHITE beauty, a successful beauty clinic adjacent to the retreat. Her beauty clinic pairs quite perfectly to the increase in beach weddings and functions in the area. She’s not limited to functions and is available for private bookings as well.
We have been married for over 30 years with two beautiful children. When we’re not at the beach, you’ll find us fishing, skiing (on the mountains), tramping and cycling
Together, we support our local and wider community and contribute through a range of charities and fundraising events. We donate the retreat as auction prizes for many fundraising events and we feel very strongly about giving back
We look forward to welcoming you into our tranquil oasis, sharing our passions and giving you the opportunity to experience all the Pukehina has to offer.
