About this property

Cozy two-story retreat

  • This is a very affordable and comfortable little beach house on a full flat section and within walking distance (about 700m) of the ocean beach.

    There's no letter box but the #212 is very visible on the side of the house. There's plenty of parking - even for a boat - in the front section. You can sit on the small deck at the front to watch the world go by or go to the back where there is more privacy. We think that the little house is a pleasant surpise. To be perfectly honest, the furnishings are a bit of a throw back to the 90s but the place is fully furnished and everything is clean and tidy, The interior is fresh and has been painted 5 years ago, with flooring and bathroom renovated in the past 2 years.

    This is a home with a very cosy feel - it is uncarpeted (makes cleaning very easy, especially with all the sand that comes in after a day at the beach!)

    The two bedrooms upstairs, with the sloping eaves are very warm, even in winter. One has a double bed, the other 2 singles with a further double sofa bed downstairs in the lounge area

    The section is great for playing ball games. If you want a day away from the beach, there is plenty of space.

    This has been a family beach house for many years - babies to little children and now teenagers - and has been a terrific little getaway for every stage.

    It is only about a 10-15 minutes walk to the beach (depending on how fast you want to go). The surf club is only a 2 minute drive away and the shops a further 2-3 minutes - but everything is close by in Whangamata!




    Special conditions:
    Tent on site on request only
    Smoking allowed outside only
    BBQ is outside - guests re-fill the gas bottle as required
    Plenty of linen is available - we will wash what you use once you leave and re-make the beds

Host communicated really well in the lead up to staying. House is a basic kiwi bach with everything you need to operate as a base for beach missions. Wanted to clean floors with all the sand adding but vacuum cleaners didn't really work well. Kids loved the tree swing.

We booked this property in Feb. The booking was accepted, only to be cancelled at the last minute. We did not receive advice of the cancellation. Presumably they got a better offer. Such Hosts give WOTIF a bad reputation.

Lovely little bach within reasonable walking distance to the beach. Staircase is a bit steep and beds are a bit on the soft side but lovely nonetheless.
