A lovely stay

House is a bit dated but offered everything we needed. Would be even better if offered some beach gear such as additional towels, the use of kayaks or even bucket and spade for the kids, but I understand that's not always feasible. Location was fabulous and we have a wonderful stay, house was very clean and the tap for feet washing was well used! Every day spent on the beach and exploring, Kids and Adults loved it.

Great access to the beach.

We stayed in the upstairs apartment which was good, just a few things like windows looking out to the ocean needed clean and all the cobwebs on the balcony. The kitchen needs modernising things like microwave, non stick pans etc. Otherwise it's one of the best spots for beach access, beautiful peaceful area. Listen to ocean while you sleep.

Wharekaho - a little known gem on the Corromamandel

A very comfortable stay for 3 friends, who havent been away together for over 50 years. We had the upstairs apartment with magnificent views across the Bay, wonderful sunrises etc. Wharekaho is definitely a "little piece of paradise"

Cyclonic views for days

This is a repeat visit, but with the drama of a cyclone and road closure. The ocean was churned up and the rain a constant reminder of the cyclone passing through but the beach, the views, the sounds and the relaxed atmosphere was worth it. We usually swim constantly but this year we drank tea and explored what the storm had left on the shore, giving us a different kind of adventure.

Lovely sea views

Pity driveway access to beach badly damaged in storm as that access with my walker was only way I could get onto the beach for a walk. Disappointing. The five hour drive from Auckland due to road closures was also disappointing.
