David & Stella look forward to hosting you in our lovely holiday home in the tranquil setting of Omori .

We are one of the few omori holiday homes where you will be dealing directly with the owners. That’s means we can offer value pricing all year round with a flat rate for the property with no additional guest fees

Please note unlike many other places we do not charge a “cleaning fee “ or a “bond” preferring instead to believe that our guests will treat our lovely holiday home and possessions with respect

Please view our feedback from previous Guests. Many of these have been repeat guests over the years.

Great space to relax
Enjoyed our stay. Was clean and a quiet and relaxing spot. A short, scenic drive to Turangi gives plenty of options. Plenty of space outside etc to entertain kids and a playground just across the road as well. Would stay again. Thanks 😀

Everything you need
Well presented, tidy, cute bach with everything you need! We enjoyed returning here after a day at the beach. Internet and Netflix a bonus! It was great to be able to bring our dogs too. Unfortunately one of our doggies realised the height of the fence was a breeze to jump over. Fencing better suited to little dogs. Overall we absolutely loved our stay and highly recommend it. A bit of a walk to the beach but definitely not a big deal.
