About this property
Beachfront Escape - Tapeka Beach Bach
Beachfront is an understatement – this cosy retreat is by the beach nestled just above the sand. Newly renovated with a fresh contemporary decor and new furniture.
The perfect nest to escape, unwind and rejuvenate. Enjoy the unique vistas and attractions only the Bay of Islands can offer. Experience birdlife, dolphins, Kiwi habitat and superb year round sunsets. Wander onto the beach hand in hand, explore secluded bays in the kayaks, swim to the diving pontoon, catch fish from the dinghy or just sit back and be entertained by the constant procession of passing boats. Situated at Tapeka Point, just two minutes from historic Russell village with shops, award winning restaurants and boats trips.
This cozy one bedroom beach house has a comfy new queen bed with stunning sea views and the gentle sound of waves. If you must share, the living room has an ottoman that converts to a single. Newly furnished with a modern beach theme. Air conditioned for year round comfort. New kitchen, bathroom and flooring.
Breathtaking views extend from Waitangi out into the Bay. No traffic noise or tourists walking past. Relax on the covered verandah or outside in the sun on Cape Cod chairs or bean bags. Leave your towel behind as the all tide swimming beach is just steps away. Rinse off under the HOT outdoor shower. Explore walking tracks and Kiwi habitat..
Tapeka Bach has a full kitchen and BBQ if you wish to self-cater or collect a take out. Better still enjoy a romantic meal on the Russell waterfront, just two minutes away. Facilities include a Nespresso machine, TV, DVD, Bluetooth Sound System, safe, free WiFi, AC, washing machined dryer
Not an apartment or flat with onsite owners - you will enjoy exclusive use in privacy. Quality linen, towels and post stay cleaning included in the nightly rate.
The position, views, beach and nearby attractions are unequalled but let the reviews decide. 1 night stays possible. Combine with neighbouring Tapeka del Mar and sleep up to 16
Special conditions:
Quoted rate is for 2 guests inclusive of linen, towels and post stay clean. Extra person $40 per night based on booked stay duration. No pets, tents or campers permitted.
