About this property

In this modern age a real novelty for some! Close proximity to beach shop, restaurants, markets, outlet shops and urban centre plus the Sunday market opposite New World is well worth a visit. In season you can pick your own herbs from our very own garden. An hours drive from Wellington/Palmerston North. Otaki beach is another one of those well kept secret spots that unless you visit you won't discover for yourself. Don't take our word for it read the amazing feedback left by our previous guests!

A rockabilly beach-house dream

We really enjoyed our stay here in Otaki, close to the beach, great communication from the host and what a treat if you're into 50s - 60s vibe. Truly a lot of love has gone into this place.

Great spot

Very clean, very cool batch. Bus stop outside was great as we didn't have a vehicle - bus to the train station. Great outdoor area.

Otaki Beach

We enjoyed our short stay at Otaki Beach and found plenty of interest there and in the surrounding areas. Chitra's house had everything we needed. The video collection is a treasure.

Great place. No problems with anything.

The property has real character and has great indoor/outdoor areas. We have been there twice and on both occasions we have very much enjoyed it.

Great Stay

Great place to stay and location was perfect. One thing to take note of is there is no TV reception. We didn’t realise until the owner sent the paperwork a couple of days before we came over. Lots of DVDs however. It didn’t bother us at all but might do for someone with children. Other than that nice place, thank you.
