About this property

Waipu Cove at its best!

This brand new Beach home is distinctive with a style of its own. A unique layout with the master suite separate from the main hub of the house linked with an all seasons covered deck. Main hub is open plan kitchen dining lounge with a built in laundry. Generous sliding doors open onto a sprawling deck with plenty of room to move. Sun drenched and glistening water views are what a magic kiwi summer day is made of.
A further two bedrooms with water views and a separate toilet and bathroom make up the main hub of the house, be spoilt with a luxurious deep bath with bifold windows for that cheeky indoor out door feel.
Crisp, clean and welcoming all year round.
Perfect for a family or a couple of couples looking for somewhere special, with gorgeous water views and ability to walk to the beach, Dairy and Café.
Winter will also be a treat at this Beach home imagine being tucked up snug inside with the fire blazing looking out to the wild stormy waters of the bay!
Beds provided: 2 x Q and 2 x KS

Important notes: linens and towels are NOT included and if you would like to have them available there's a fee of $120.00

Relaxing Break
Fantastic location, easy walk to the beach and restaurant. Great views. Everything a kitchen could want. On good days opening the sliding doors to the deck was a bonus. Would love to buy it and live there full time.

What a view!
This is the second time we have stayed here and we have had another wonderful family trip away! So many wonderful activities in the local area - highly recommend pizza barn and also the local coastal walk. The views were absolutely incredible. Loved how the house is a quick walk to the beach and the views are even better than the pictures indicate! We will definitely be back for a third stay!

Thoroughly satisfying stay
The house has a stunning view and is equipped for all needs. It is walking distance to the beach and local cafe, but sufficiently distanced to be quiet and peaceful. The host was available when we needed her and helpful. Altogether a great experience.

Great location
Lovely comfortable bach with stunning views over the bay. Easy walk to beach, dairy and Cove cafe. We loved the deck when the sun was shining, and enjoyed the views from inside during the rain. There's no Wifi and mobile coverage was patchy while we were there, but it's a great spot to disconnect for a few days.
