This bach on the coastal headland overlooks the sea, and has access to the beach below. The generous deck is awesome and the whole place is both relaxing and private. Would highly recommend.

Little Gem

This place was perfect for our family get away, what an incredible view of the beach. Awesome big deck with bean bags to relax in. This place was clean, modern and comfortable. Definitely bring your khubb or lawn games if you have any as the lawn is massive. Surf was up, right in front of us which made the teens happy too. We will definitely be back, thanks for a fantastic stay.

Summer Break

Great spot, wonderful views of the beach. We were able to watch the surfers and the wonderful Sunsets. Not great for swimming but good for fishing and surfing. Opunake only a short distance away is a good swimming beach. Great location, were able to take advantage of Taranaki’s tourist spots and walks. Track to the beach was a little difficult for elderly grandparents.

Instant Relax and smile on the dial

Wonderful to feel that west coast ocean and here it. Love to create this for myself. I will be back. My Husky loved it there too. Are you interested in renting full time for a few weeks or couple of months while i finish building down there. Oct 20 to Dec? I only need one room and the aim would be to get into my place asap. I am looking at land and homes down there lol. Natalie (natalie@coha.col.nz) Natalie

Top spot for a quiet beach/surf holiday. The terrace is lovely although no outside furniture is provided.Beds are comfy.The only downside is that the kitchen was not well equipped and there was no bbq,contrary to the listing.

Breathtaking Sunset

This home is definitely secluded, with breathtaking sunset views over the bay. Just what we needed. Just a short trip to town to pick up morning cappuccino's and you can sit on the deck all day. Can't beat the view. There are a couple of large bean bag chairs for the deck, but a few more deck chairs would be nice. Wish I could load a picture of the sunset here but be assured it was beautiful. Overall and nice respite on our trip from Queenstown to Auckland.
