About this property

Waihau Bay Paradise

When it comes to WOW factor for location this charming oceanside Bach delivers on every level. Nestled in the quiet seaside village of Waihau Bay this Bach has the premier spot. With uninterrupted panoramic water views, sun drenched north facing living areas providing the most idyllic spot for a relaxed retreat to unwind and destress.

If you are an avid fisherman you have found your paradise. Waihau Bay is renowned for having some of the best fisheries in New Zealand and the boat ramp is just a 1 minute drive away. And when it's busy you have the added bonus of parking the trailer in your own concrete driveway.

The house is all yours during your stay. You can choose to socialize with the neighbors or just enjoy your quiet quaint home. The kitchen has all supplies that you will need during your stay, pots, pans fry pans and all crockery and cutlery. There is a BBQ on the deck and gas is provided.

Waihau Bay is just a small village and only has the one restaurant and a general grocery shop. Both places do outstanding takeaways and only a short stroll from the house. There is a Liquor outlet around the back of the Hotel. Allied Petroleum is available 24/7 for your fuel needs.
