About this property

Stunning modern beach house 5 minutes walk from the beach

  • Relax and unwind in our brand new beach house! The beautiful white sandy beach is just 5 minutes walk away, as is the dairy for buying ice creams and the fish and chip shop. Sit outside on our expansive deck which enjoys all day sunshine. There is plenty of room to park the boat and it's only 5 minutes drive to the boat ramp to launch for a day's fishing and diving. Enjoy some kayaking on the Athenree inlet or biking on one of the nearby bike trails.

    The house has a spacious kitchen with new appliances and an open plan living area. There is a second lounge area for the kids or the teenagers. There are four bedrooms. The master has a king bed, the second bedroom has a queen bed, the third has a single bed with a trundler and the fourth has king single bunks. There are two bathrooms and an outside shower with hot and cold water to rinse off after a swim at the beach.

    As per Kiwi bach tradition, please bring your own sheets and towels.

Weekend away

Fabulous place to stay, has a seperate lounge for the kids. TV in that room needs to be hooked up. Other than that it was 9/10. Easy walk to beach 5 min, plenty of kids games to play, outdoor entertaining area and BBQ.

Island View Property

Island View stay was everything I imagined! The place was clean and tidy, had a warm welcome feeling about it. The only downfall - need to: 1) update profile pics of neighbours are right next to each other, parking space, also the lock box number is the same to open and close - not too separate numbers lol. Island View catered for my specific needs. Thank you for having me and my Whanau. Highly recommend for a week away! Ngā mihi.

Wonderful stay

We had a wonderful 4 days at Waihi Beach. Comfortable and has everything you needs. The only recommendation would be maybe have a draw for you to put your food in as there is no pantry. Also on the note given maybe say what days are rubbish days or where you can find this information. We would highly recommend this place to other people. Definitely a great place to stay. Thank you for sharing your lovely holiday home.

Very nice bach

We have an annual trip with eight women to Waihi Beach every year and stayed at this bach for the first time. It was very clean and tidy and had excellent sleeping arrangements for a large group. Lovely big north facing deck and kitchen had everything needed to cater for ourselves. We will definitely be staying again. Thanks for having us, you have a very lovely bach.

A nice place to stay

We would like to say a big thank you to hosts. Communication, check in and check out was smooth and pleasant. The house surprisingly big inside - enough room to fit 8 adults. The house is almost brand new, clean and not smelly. A lot of houseware, we've found everything we needed during 2 days. Definitely 5/5

Early Christmas break

We enjoyed our time at Island View. The house is very spacious, neat and well equipped. Location is central and close enough to all attractions. Being in the midst of a new development, the neighbouring construction works can be a bit noisy.
