Sit back and enjoy the local birdlife and rabbits—just don’t feed the ducks, or they may become persistent visitors! There’s plenty to see and do around the harbour, and guests are welcome to use the two kayaks in the boat shed as the tide comes in. The patio, adjacent to the hedged boundary and waterfront, is an ideal spot for outdoor dining and relaxation. A heat pump in the living area, with air conditioning, ensures a comfortable temperature year-round. The kitchenette covers basic self-catering needs, equipped with a full oven with 4 hotplates, kettle, toaster, microwave, and fridge/freezer. The location is ideal, with the local supermarket just an eight-minute drive away. A five-minute walk or quick drive will take you to the renowned Mangawhai Surf Beach, where you can enjoy safe swimming between the flags, surfing opportunities, and refreshing ocean air. For a scenic adventure, try the coastal walk: head along the beach at low tide and return along the cliff top to take in the breathtaking views. The town offers a variety of eateries, a good grocery store on Wood Street opposite the golf course, and other attractions including Bennetts of Mangawhai chocolate factory and cafe and the famous Mangawhai Tavern. Whether you’re here for the sun, sand, or surf, the unit promises a relaxing and fun-filled getaway. Enjoy all that Magical Mangawhai has to offer!
