The Neighborhood: Marvellous Mount Maunganui
A favourite amongst travellers young and old……..a brilliant base for everyone with so much to do and so much to explore….. you’ll be left with wanting more.
Located in the fabulous Bay of Plenty, Mount Maunganui is famous for its endless white sand beach, year-round surf, Pilot Bay Harbour and beautiful Mauao.
At the end of the peninsula the iconic Mauao stands elegantly at 230 meters tall. Everyone has the option of taking a leisurely stroll around the flat base. The more adventurous will have fun reaching the top and be rewarded with the spectacular 360-degree views.
Downtown Mount you’ll find a laid-back strip of shops, bars & restaurants that offer all day dining most with alfresco tables…….Pick up a treat or souvenir from one of the locally owned boutiques, enjoy an ice cream or coffee, browse one of the weekly markets or soak yourself in one of the salt water hot pools or treat yourself to a papering session at one of the spas.
Pilot Bay offers sheltered year-round swimming and kayaking. Picnic on the grassy shore & watch the fishermen launch their boats and cargo ships come and go.
Head to main beach where new surfers can grab a lesson and watch the more experienced catch a wave or two. If the wind is up the kite surfers will be out in force. Or just chill and enjoy a refreshing swim.
Keen golfers have the choice of two world class courses…..Summer or Winter there’s no excuse not to get the clubs out.
For groceries you’ll find an accessible New World at Central Parade along with cafe's, bike shops and a slick city eatery.
10 minutes’ drive away is the recently upgraded Bay Fair shopping centre with 150 shops and restaurants and the new United seven screen cinema (opens December 2020). Bay Wave offers a fun day indoors in the largest pool in the Bay. Complete with wave machine, kiddies play pools and giant slide.
Whatever you love to do you will be guaranteed to make fond and lasting memories here in in the marvellous Mount Maunganui

Great for older chn had they had bedrooms and bathroom downstairs with their own small lounge & tv.
Very clean and central to coffee shops and beach. Short 5 min drive into the city centre.
Spacious and warm.
Excellent for a long stay. It had everything we needed…. Except egg cups.
We stayed in this beautiful property for a festival in Tauranga (a short taxi/uber away from this property). It was perfect for our stay as it was a 5min walk to the beach & 10-15min walk to Mount Maunganui if you fancy a stroll. Deb was very flexible with meeting us at the property once our flight arrived. The property itself is very spacious & the air con was a luxury in the heat of the weekend! There is a supermarket within walking distance (approx 15-20mins) & then wandering down into Mt Maunganui village centre had some great eateries/bars & a beautiful park to eat or head back to the beach. Although other properties feel close the neighbourhood was relatively quiet & the property still felt like it had a degree of privacy. Thank you for an excellent stay in Tauranga.
Excellent, prompt communication from property manager with all necessary information for ease of access to the house.
Also answered all questions and requests I had in a professional and timely manner.
The house was clean and extremely well appointed with lovely comfortable beds.
The location to beach, shops, restaurants etc is excellent.
Lots of parking at the jouse and in the quiet street.
I would thoroughly recommend and would definitely stay again.
Immaculate condition with high quality furnishings and everything we could want to make the holiday stress free. Fantastic location in the Mount as well.
Quick and easy booking process. Communication with the property manager was a breeze. Property is well maintained and suitable for 6 people. There is a modern kitchen and equipments. The neighbourhood is quite and very safe. It is about 300m to the beach. Highl
The Mount is a big place, so finding the right location - close to the supermarket, main shops and the beach - makes a holiday more enjoyable. This property was a walk to all of these, and suited our large family perfectly. The house itself is lovely, with all modern features maintained to a high standard. We loved the living area with its deck and big kitchen. We definitely recommend and will be back.
Perfect little get away from home! Location was perfect to access everything easily as well as close to the beach. House is well presented and immaculate. Property managers were helpful and easy to get in touch with.
Thank you so much for a relaxing getaway!
Fantastic house and location, but possibly overpriced
Very well designed and comfortable house with lovely open plan living areas. Large garage helpful for storing beach gear. Very limited outside space, although garden was well maintained and attractive. We felt that for what we paid we could have got much better value elsewhere in the Mount (I’m still not clear what the substantial service charge on top of the daily rate and cleaning fee got us?).
Visited The Mount 8times in 8 years and this is the best and most convenient location. The house had everything for a wonderful vacation. We will return.
