Spacious Beach Home Away From Home

A large modern styled bach situated just back off the road from the popular Tokerau Beach. Yes its only being a hop skip and a jump to the beach this is the perfect place to create holiday memories for the whole family.

Tokerau Beach is great for all ages it offers a wide range of water sports, its an excellent beach to walk down and of course it offers fishing as well as tua tua's yum!! If that's not enough you will be within a 5 min drive to the beautiful Matai bay, Rangiputa and other amazing beaches our beautiful coastline has to offer.

This is the perfect location to base yourself to explore everything the far north has to offer with places like Cape Reinga and the world famous 90 mile beach all within a 2 hour drive. Closer to home base just up the road in Whatuwhiwhi is Carrington Estate for lunch or dinner or you could pop across the road and have a round of golf.

A lovely homely place easy to clean come and enjoy.
Special conditions:
Smoking is allowed outside only and remove all butts.

Pets are welcome outside only.

Extras
NOTE: Under Kiwi bach tradition you are expected to: Leave the house clean and tidy.

  • I took my partner up Puheke to be able to catch the sunset. I've never been at this time of the evening, and I'm so glad we went! Magnificent cloud formations that just so happen to brighten up Mt Camel in the background. Beautiful! #sunset

Seriously need to change the outdoor photos of the views of the beach from the kitchen

We were annoyed to find the house hidden behind houses and according to the photos there are no houses in front of the property and on the outdoor living space!! Overall, the property management were helpful when we needed them. We loved the easy access to the beach.

Review 9-16 January

The property is a great holiday location and we enjoyed our stay. It is within walking distance to Tokerau beach and driving distance to all the great attractions in the area. The section is great for back yard cricket! The house is very hot and does not have air-conditioning so sleeping at night was a challenge at times.

The Stay That Never Was

On arrival we were extremely disappointed in the property and considered the photographs on your site to misrepresent the actual position and nature of the property. We called the agent and did not stay. We only received a one night refund. Extremely disappointed is a euphemism for our true feelings.

Lovely new Bach.

Lovely new Bach. Clean and tidy. Lots off room. Even has views off the sea which was nice. The only thing was that there was no towel rail or hairdryer etc plug in the main bathroom. Great location. Would definitely stay again ????

We really enjoyed our stay at this lovely house. It had everything we needed, was in a great location, quiet and within easy walking distance to the beach. We stayed in the middle of winter and yet it was warm and we did not require the heating that was available. Great stay, would definitely stay here again and recommend to others.
