Sand sun and fun, beautiful sunsets. Walk from the sea up the sandy beach and onto the large deck, past the BBQ shower spa hammocks and kayaks, under the pagola and outdoor furniture, into the lounge or a quick right into the master bedroom/private lounge, straight on past couches open fire and smart TV to the open plan kitchen, left into the bathroom or first right into the bunk-room or a bit further to the double room, open the fridge whatever you want then walk out the road side doors down 5mins to the restaurants shops and cafes or half way down turn right and catch the train 30 minutes to beautiful and buzzing central Wellington. The train track runs behind the house and street the electric commuter trains are quiet but up to 3 to 4 freight trains run at night which are louder. I live in the Beach House when its not rented with my children and it doesn't disturb us at all and I have only 1 in 50 guests even mention the trains, so just letting you know. ## Property amenities ### Beach - On the beach - Beach loungers ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Bathtub or shower - Shampoo - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Computer monitor - Desk - Desk chair ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - 5 pets total ### Suitability/Accessibility - No lift - Designated smoking areas - Note from host: Thanks for respecting the place ### Location highlights - In a village - Near the bay - Near the marina - Near the ocean - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Bicycle parking - Gym - Kayak - Water sports equipment - Birdwatching nearby - Ecotours nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Sailing nearby - Scuba diving nearby - Snorkelling nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Windsurfing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - At least 80% lighting from LEDs - Bicycle parking - Recycling - Unit size: 1,076 square feet ## Similar properties ![Fridge, microwave, dishwasher, toaster](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/121000000/120310000/120300600/120300511/90091847.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Fisherman’s Cottage - Waikanae Beach Waikanae Beach - Pool - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washing machine 10 Exceptional 3 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-25&endDate=2026-02-26&selected=120300511&PinnedHotelID=120300511&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![1 bedroom, iron/ironing board, free WiFi, bed sheets](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/102000000/101090000/101086400/101086381/a1d2c80d.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Commune with Nature at Hilltop View in Nikau Valley!

Spa pool had sand on seats and tarnished my jewellery???Water quality???? There were not enough glasses, mugs, plates or bowls for 7 of us. Not enough dish washing liquid. Coffee cups had been used previously and looked like they had been put straight back on the shelf unwashed as they had dried coffee inside them. Only 5 wine glasses when we had 7 adults. It was not stated that train line was sitting with 20m of the nearest bedroom and the trains go most of the the night on the hour if not more often. Aside from that we really enjoyed our stay. Great location and out look. It was so nice to walk straight on to the beach from the house. The barbecue was excellent! ##### Lisa P.
