About this property

The Crows Nest Coastal retreat Mill Bay, Mangonui

  • 🌊 The Crows Nest – Coastal Retreat with Harbor Views
    Perched above the moorings of Mill Bay and just 150m from the boat ramp, The Crows Nest is your gateway to exploring Mangonui, Doubtless Bay, and the stunning Far North.
    🚤 Launch your boat at the end of the street or take a refreshing dip at high tide. Coopers Beach and Cable Bay are only minutes away by car, or hike through the scenic Rangikapiti Reserve for breathtaking views and native bush.
    🍽️ Just a 2-minute drive (or a leisurely 15-minute stroll) brings you to the world-famous Mangonui Fish & Chip Shop, local Four Square, Mangonui Hotel, boutique shops, and restaurants.
    🏡 The home features:

    Two comfortable double bedrooms
    A spacious deck with panoramic harbor views from Berghan Point to Taemaro
    Outdoor dining and BBQ area
    Hot outdoor shower – perfect for rinsing off after beach adventures
    A hammock for relaxing and soaking in the peaceful surroundings

    🌿 The garden is full of herbs and seasonal vegetables available for guests to enjoy.
    🎣 For fishing enthusiasts, there's boat parking (for those confident in trailer reversing) or easy access to nearby wharfs and rock fishing spots.
    🌄 Day trip options include Taupo Bay, the Karikari Peninsula, Cape Reinga, and the Te Paki Sand Dunes. Or simply unwind , soak in the views and starry night sky.

Lovely Kiwi Bach with stunning views and an amazing location. Very private with a lovely garden but still close to shops. New bathroom and the garden was a highlight- fresh veggies and herbs available which was super handy. We loved staying here and would come back anytime!
