About the host
Hosted by Olwyn Gillespie
Harry and I have always loved travelling in our camper van and staying at beaches around the North Island. Whiritoa had provided my children and I with many happy holidays while they were growing up. When an opportunity to purchase this beautiful, sun drenched property came up earlier this year we didn't hesitate to claim our little piece of paradise. Having travelled overseas for the past few years we were ready to enjoy a more permanent holiday home. We would like to invite you to relax and create holiday memories here as well.
Why they chose this property
30 Marlin Place is a modern, warm, single level home. Presented in immaculate condition, with quality furnishings and fittings. All you need to do is unpack, unwind and soak up the restorative powers of Whiritoa.
What makes this property unique
Our bach is located in a quiet cul-de-sac, situated on a flat, grassed section that is boarded by the Ramarama stream at its rear boundary. Great for outdoor games, b-b-q's and relaxing. Peaceful views over the stream to the surrounding hills. A short walk to the local store for coffees and take-aways, overlooking Whiritoa Beach.
