About this property

Relax in Rangiputa - Paradise of the Far North

A high quality, modern, purpose built holiday home planned and designed to enable you to enjoy the best of the paradise that is Rangiputa. The kitchen is modern and fully featured with gas hob, electric oven and double drawer dishwasher. The kitchen, dining and living areas are open plan with bifold doors on each side of the house opening onto wooden decks.

Bring your boat to enjoy the superb fishing that this area has to offer. Easy parking and launching just down the road at Rangiputa Beach. Boats can be parked in front of the house and there is plenty of parking available.

There is a large stainless steel barbecue to cook the catch or your favourite joint of meat. Relax on your choice of 2 spacious decks and enjoy views of the Rangaunu Harbour with a glass of wine or beer in hand.

Take the family for a short walk to Rangiputa Beach, a beautiful and safe swimming beach, with crystal clear blue water. A short 5 minute drive to Puheke Beach where you can surf, collect pipis or send out a long line. There are many world class beaches in the area including the iconic Matai Bay..

For golfers there is a course at the Carrington Wine Estate that also offers great coffee, food and of course wine tasting.

A great place to be to enjoy the best of the Far North. Cape Reinga and 90 mile beach are to the North and you can sledge down the sand dunes at Te Paki on the way. Go swimming with Dolphins, surf, dive, fish or do nothing but enjoy the views and relax.

Historic Mangonui is a 30 minute drive away and features restaurants, bars and shopping. The world famous Mangonui Fish Shop sits over the water and you can enjoy the harbour views whilst eating your favourite fish.

Fabulous bach with all you need!

We had a lovely stay here. Rangiputa is a fabulous location - easy to launch the boat in 2 locations. Darren, the host, was super easy to deal with, instructions were 100% and he went out of his way to find out about kite boarding locations for my husband - which were spot on. We had a fantastic stay and very relaxing as it was so easy to deal with Darren, the bach was super and no stress!

I wouldn’t recommend this property. Dishonest property manager / cleaner. We got charged for extras without consultation or quotes. No shower gel or soap supplied, toilet paper nearly run out meaning we supplied this and left extra for next guests. Very disappointed.

About the host

Hosted by Darren

Host profile image
My wife and I are both teachers working in Auckland, New Zealand. We love to travel and have visited a wide range of countries.

I trained as a Marine Biologist and the ocean is my passion so I love to dive and fish and the Rangiputa area is excellent for this.

Why they chose this property

We travelled to whole of New Zealand in a camper van and when we found Rangiputa we knew this was the perfect place for us.

We purchased a section in 2008 and had the holiday home designed and built to make the most of the beach lifestyle in 2009.

We love the peace and quiet and the beautiful beaches in the area.

What makes this property unique

Easy to park, launch and retrieve your boat. Beautiful scenery (known as the Fiji of NZ) and fantastic fishing.
