Pre-Authorization Damage Deposit Hold To ensure coverage for any potential incidentals or damages during your stay, Bush to Bay Holiday Stays will place a temporary pre-authorization hold of $250 on your credit card two days before check-out. This is a standard practice in the hospitality industry and serves as a placeholder for any additional charges before final billing. ⚠️ Important: A pre-authorization hold is not a charge—it simply reserves funds temporarily. If no incidental costs or damages occur, the hold will be released after check-out, depending on your bank’s processing time. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby ### Parking and transport - Car required - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 4 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 3 bathrooms - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Games - Stereo - TV with cable/satellite channels - Video games ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Location highlights - Near the sea ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Unit size: 1,830 square feet ## Similar properties ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/58000000/57820000/57812100/57812045/fde5b8ab.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Bridge Street Accommodation Opotiki - Kitchen - Washing machine - Outdoor space - Parking available 8.0 Very good 2 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-15&endDate=2026-01-16&selected=57812045&PinnedHotelID=57812045&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Deluxe Apartment, 1 Bedroom, Ocean View | Living area | 42-inch flat-screen TV with satellite channels, TV](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/14000000/13570000/13568700/13568611/bf6d515a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Beachpoint Apartments Ohope - Pool - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer 9.6 Exceptional 64 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-15&endDate=2026-01-16&selected=13568611&PinnedHotelID=13568611&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/10000000/9630000/9629200/9629162/ae7d7cb9.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Livingston Motel Whakatāne Town - Parking included - Free Wi-Fi - Air-conditioning - Breakfast available 9.4 Exceptional 301 reviews £64 includes taxes & fees 15 Jan - 16 Jan [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-15&endDate=2026-01-16&selected=9629162&PinnedHotelID=9629162&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![City view from property](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/101000000/100290000/100287900/100287850/807a915b.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Tuscany Villas Boutique Motel Whakatāne Town - Parking included - Free Wi-Fi - Air-conditioning - Laundry room 9.4 Exceptional 96 reviews £68 includes taxes & fees 4 Jan - 5 Jan [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-04&endDate=2026-01-05&selected=100287850&PinnedHotelID=100287850&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Front of property – evening/night](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/70000000/69920000/69914700/69914621/6d0e4d42.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Com Plex Motel Whakatāne Town - Parking included - Free Wi-Fi - Restaurant - Air-conditioning 9.6 Exceptional 391 reviews £68 includes taxes & fees 3 Jan - 4 Jan [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-03&endDate=2026-01-04&selected=69914621&PinnedHotelID=69914621&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ## Policies ### Check-in Contactless check-in and check-out are available ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions Information provided by the property may be translated using automated translation tools ### Pets Pets not allowed ### Children and extra beds Children are welcome ### Events No events allowed ### Smoking Smoking is not permitted ## Important information ### You need to know This property is managed by a professional host.
