About this property

Comfortable, spacious family beach house

Much loved family beach house. Kent fire.
5 minute walk to a picturesque swimming and surf beach with cafe/restaurant, tennis and petanque courts, and kids play area. Fully equipped kitchen with dishwasher. Good views from upstairs deck. 2 queen beds, 4 singles, 1 bunk. Loft above garage with additional beds. BBQ available.

Onemana is a great surf beach and, when calm, a perfect family swimming spot. Patrolled during the summer. Across the beach road is a little dairy for ice-creams, and a cafe/restaurant for coffees or dining. Behind the cafe is a beautiful pond with ducks to feed. The beach itself is uncrowded , even at the height of summer. Surf casting is popular.
From Onemana there are a number of scenic bush walks leading to secluded swimming beaches and great picnic spots. If you like to mountain bike, there are fantastic trails close to Onemana.
Whangamata surf township is 10 minute drive away with many restaurants and cafes to choose from. At low tide you can collect pipis and cockles. There is also boat launching facilities there and a wharf for fishing from.
For a Coromandel day trip, it's only a 45 minute drive to Hot Water Beach (dig your own hot water pool in the sand) and then on to Hahei - take the one hour coastal walk to descend into Cathedral Cove - famous for stunning views and a lovely beach.
For golfers there are two courses in the area (clubs can be hired). Fishing charters are easily arranged. Ask at the Information Centre in Whangamata.
Special conditions:
Please bring your own linen and beach towels. (If necessary, these can be provided).
Check in and check out times are flexible but in high season check in is 2pm and checkout is 11am.
NOTE: Under Kiwi bach traditions you are expected to clean the house before you leave.

Onemana stay
We really enjoyed our week at onemana. The house is within easy walking distance of the beach. The house was very comfortable with all amenities we needed. It has a really nice atmosphere like it has been well-loved by and used by an extended family. There are good views from the upper storey. Would really recommend it as a very pleasant place to stay. The owner sent very comprehensive information and made the reservation process easy.

Amazing Sunrise by the Beach
Loved our stay in the Onemana home. Beautiful sunrise by the beach each morning, which was only a two minute walk from the house. Kitchen appliances might be due for an update (microwave, pots/pans & knives). But overall, loved our stay and would return.

Pre Christmas stay by the beach
The bach is a lovely place, well placed to be in easy walking distance to the beach, but high enough above the sea to get nice sea breezes to cool the bach. Comfy beds and decently equipped to make the stay easy to self cater. There is even a sleep out in the loft above the garage, perfect for teenage boys to have some space from the parents, but close enough to feel safe. Only downside was that the room advertised as a bunkbed and single room combined is actually the upstairs landing area. Easy enough to work around though, and good for young kids to sleep near parents rooms. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay, thanks:)

Julie was amazing, relaxed and easy going. We felt so comfortable staying at her place. The kids loved it!!! Toys galore! Books! Videos/dvds! Board games, a grassy lawn to play on and more! The use of the community pool and spas was an added bonus! Our family had sooooo much fun ❤️ Thank you Julie! We would love to stay again x

Weekend getaway
The house was perfect and fit our family of 8 and could easily fit more. The house was spacious and clean, looked exactly like the photos and had a wide range of games and books available to us! The fireplace was an added bonus as it was cold during the evening. Didn’t provide wifi but that was fine considering we wanted to spend quality time together without any interruptions! Julie was also very nice and offered us clear instructions for check in! Would definitely book again :)

Excellent place to stay!
Our stay was special as it was special to be with family and friends! What made it even more special was the property and location. The property was perfect with everything on point, and the property owner couldn’t have been anymore accurate as all given information regarding the booking matched to the T! We will be back for sure!
