Waterfront Holiday Home - Ideal for Two Families
Now available in January 2026!
Due to a cancellation by our regulars of 10 years booking our bach, it is now available from Saturday 3rd January for 14 plus days! (minimum booking 14 days for these dates only)
Opito Bay is one of the most picturesque beaches on the Coromandel Peninsula. A beautiful sandy beach for safe swimming, diving, fishing and boating. This comfortable waterfront holiday home is just perfect for two families with excellent privacy offered by the two separate dwellings. Perfectly positioned in a tranquil spot with gorgeous views of Opito Bay and Mercury Islands from the living areas and decks and only metres to the stunning beach just in front of you over the road. Accommodation offered includes the three bedroom main house plus extra accommodation (two semi-open-plan bedrooms, bathroom and deck) above the garage at the rear. Fully equipped with all the modern conveniences, books, games and puzzles. There are a number of lovely walks to neighbouring Crayfish Bay, Matapaua Bay and along the relatively deserted western end of the Bay where there are no baches. Perfect for peaceful family holidays. Half an hour north/east of Whitianga and Coromandel townships. Only 10-15 minutes drive to popular Lukes Kitchen Seaside Restaurant at Kuaotunu.
Special conditions:
Two night minimum stay (or more during peak periods) Tariffs may be higher than listed for peak season periods, school holidays and long weekends. Must BYO Sky Digital decoder for Sky. Free to air TV is available.
NOTE: Bring your own linen (towels/sheets/duvet covers/tea towels);
All January & February Bookings must be for a minimum of 5 or 7 nights and must include all weekday nights (Sun-Thur)
REFUND POLICY - While the standard refund policy for this property is no refunds, partial or sometimes up to full refund (less booking fees) may be made at the owners discretion if a replacement booking is made without loss of rent.
