About this property

Tui's Retreat ~ 3 Bedroom North End Bach

Fully relax and have a fabulous holiday at Tui's Retreat, a comfortable bach with modern conveniences which is only a few minutes short stroll to the north end of Waihi Beach. Fully fenced, pet friendly, and a short hop to the beach or up the beautiful Trig Bush Walk in the opposite direction. Beautiful Waihi Beach, with 9 km's of pristine sand and surf is at the end of the street, plus dairy for ice creams, cafe for coffee and fish n chip shop close by.

Tui's Retreat has:
* full air conditioning throughout bach for summer comfort
* full heat pump heating throughout bach for winter warmth
* newly renovated kitchen with new oven (gas hobs, electric oven) & range hood for whipping up delicious food and a full dishwasher for taking care of dishes afterwards
* gas hot water meaning instant hot water with high pressure for nice hot showers or take a relaxing bath
* Outdoor hot/cold shower for getting rid of sand after a day in the surf
* Breville Nespresso coffee machine for use
* Webber Family Q BBQ for use
* New curtains which block out light allowing you to have a good sleep in
* A selection of kids toys and books which are there and free to use for the duration of the stay.

Only 3 minutes walk (350m) from beautiful Waihi Beach and super close to the Waihi Beach Surf Club for flagged and patrolled swimming areas. Big deck with bbq and large table (seats 10) to sit and watch the tuis dive from the huge Pohutukawa trees at the front of the bach. Comfy outdoor sofa and chairs for reading on under the large cantilever umbrella. Outdoor foot & dog shower for washing off after beach time.

Also handy to the Main Street with cafes and shops, and a 4 Square supermarket. There is a spectacular walk to Orokawa Bay on a DOC track which goes from the absolute north end of Waihi Beach (5 mins walk from the Bach) and gives you stunning views of the Pacific Ocean and thru the coastal forest ending up in beautiful Orokawa Bay. It is about 45 mins walk (mid to steep in parts) one way.

Tui's Retreat easily accommodates 2 families if the kids are happy to all sleep in the bunk room. With 3 spacious bedrooms, two of which are double bedrooms with Queen Beds, plus one extra large bedroom with 2 sets of King Single bunks (sleeping 4 in that room), there is plenty of room. A seperate toilet makes life a bit easier, and the bathroom has a shower over bath.

Kitchen is equiped with microwave, coffee machine, dishwasher and gas-top electric oven with range hood. Fully air-conditioned and heated for comfort in both summer and winter.

Special conditions:

• No parties and no additional guests staying beyond those booked
• No smoking inside or within the property grounds
• No open fires
• Pet friendly, but please do advise in booking request. Pet owners, can you please pick up any dog mess off the lawn or we will have to charge an additional cleaning fee ~ thank you!
• Please leave behind all our books and kids toys, as these belong to our two kids who generously are fine with sharing them with other children who stay. There would be tears if anything was taken so please respect their kindness and leave all toys and books at the bach when leaving.

There is a large Smart TV on the wall in the living area, & there are plenty of books and boardgames which you are welcome to use.

Tuis Retreat
A lovely well positioned private bach at the northern end of Waihi beach just a 5 min stroll to the beach. More than adequate size for large family with 2 double bedrooms and children’s bunk room, Excellent amenities and especially enjoyed the outdoor shower. Had a lovely time with the family and my parents which was made even more memorable being able to take our furry friend too. Great instructions from the owner. Highly recommend.

Great home away from away
Had such a lovely stay, two families and Honey :).. Great location, awesome front yard for the kids to play their games and the adults to play theirs ;).. Nice big kitchen and comfy beds. Outdoor showers were perfect to shower after swimming, and to wash the dog down. We have no doubt we will be back!! Thanks for sharing your lovely batch with us :).

About the host

Hosted by Ange Peckham

Host profile image
Hey! My name is Ange Peckham and this bach is a little haven for myself and my husband and two kids. Oh and can't forget our dog Tui. She actually was the driver for getting a bach as we found it was hard to find anywhere to stay that was dog friendly. We have a love for older houses that have a history and yet feel warm, friendly and inviting.

Why they chose this property

Myself and my husband bought this piece of land a few years ago with a derelict miners cottage on it. I had romantic dreams of saving the cottage but it hadn't had anyone living in it for 47 years and the builders soon told us that it would not be possible to save it. Imagine 4-5 huge holes in the roof of each room, which had collapsed in on itself, and as a result had decades of water damage. So the old cottage went (we saved a few things from it like the 4 different layers of wallpaper which are framed and now hang in the current bach) and we rescued a ex-state house from the Waterview Tunnel in Auckland. It was a big renovation and no surface went untouched. Now this cosy yet super comfortable house is the perfect bach - roomy bedrooms where you can retreat for peace and quiet, a lovely big deck to eat and lounge on, and a well designed living area and kitchen (with seperate laundry) plus a bathroom and seperate toilet. We totally love this property and hope you get to enjoy soaking up the sunshine, whilst listening to the beautiful birdlife in the huge trees out the front of the bach.

What makes this property unique

This bach is perfectly positioned for walking up to the Trig and making the most of all the incredible bush walks around this area, but also a really short stroll to the beach. The house has a relaxed & easy vibe, but it is very comfortable with all the things you could need in a kitchen and with the luxury of full air-conditioning and heating throughout the bach.
