About this property

Well-equipped, spacious classic kiwi bach across from beach

Bring friends or family to stay in this 3 bedroom, 2 storey classic beachfront kiwi bach that's just a few minutes walk from the water's edge. It's well-equipped with all you need for a fantastic holiday, and there's a playground over the road which also has a half basketball court - perfect for shooting hoops. There's plenty of room for larger groups and it's cosy enough for smaller groups too. Hokio Beach is a really special place - quiet and laid back, perfect for a relaxing holiday.

Fill your days with swimming, fishing, gathering tuatua, whitebaiting when in season, and kayaking or playing table tennis, cricket, swingball, volleyball, or 'pitch-n-putt' golf on the lawn or shooting hoops at the park (all equipment and balls supplied) - or simply explore with beach and bush walks. Alternately, relax on the deck and soak up the sun and peace and quiet. In the evenings, crank up the BBQ while playing darts, and enjoy the sunset.

For the colder months, there's a wood burner in the living area (firewood is supplied) - and oil heaters in each of the bedrooms, and in the living area also.

Explore the fantastic Horowhenua region including the Papaitonga Scenic Reserve, Tararua Forest Park and other walking and tramping tracks, other nearby beaches, and the local golf course which is just down the road. The closest town, Levin, is less than 10 minutes away and has restaurants, pubs, cinema complex, aquatic centre, and Adventure Park - a fantastic playground for all ages. Make sure you also check out the Otaki outlet stores for a holiday bargain. There are even a few wineries in the region which are open daily.

The beach house has a fully equipped kitchen. Also available for use are a gazebo, indoor bowls, skateboards, tennis rackets, petanque, books, DVDs, cards, and board games, as well as freeview and a few SKY TV channels (or bring your own SKY card for more).

Hokio Beach is a really special place - it's like stepping back in time to when things were easy and slow-paced - and Hokio Beachfront Bach is the perfect place to enjoy it in. We look forward to hearing from you!

Quintessentially Kiwi
Wonderful family bach with plenty of room and plenty to do. The locals were lovely and helpful, I forgot to take some oil and they were happy to lend me some. The beach being on the doorstep was just fantastic. It was a little cold to swim but a quick trip into Levin pools got that out of the kids system and there’s a hydro slide. Stunning sunsets just topped the trip off. There was a bit of car activity on our last night there, not sure what they were up to but we felt safe. We will definitely return in the summer, so we can enjoy the surf.

Perfect fit
We had 2 families that was made up of 4 adults and kids ranging 0-10. It was perfect, the location was amazing and the room layout worked very well for the kids and their sleeping. Such a lovely serene village Hokio is and we are so happy we got to experience the quiet simplicity of it. Helen was fantastic and the bach is so well equipped we definitely overpacked as she has everything we needed. We loved it and will definitely be back.
