Beautiful summer sunsets enjoying a glass of wine or two from the deck. Perfect spot to observe action on the beach with safe swimming and lots of outdoor adventure. Boats can be launched from the beach with great fishing or surf casting off the rocks.
Great place to stay and explore Karikari Peninsula with some of the best beaches in NZ, Matai Bay, Rangiputa, Karikari and Tokerau beach. Carrington Estate winery is very nearby with a championship golf course, this is well worth a visit. Also the short drive to the famous Mangonui Fish Shop and quaint local village is a treat.

Nice place, couple of caveats

Older home overlooking a delightful bay. Good place for 4 to 8 travelers, but be advised that there is no WiFi (which was clearly not listed in the amenities so this was my mistake), you are required to bring your own linens and towels - which I'm learning is very common in NZ but very uncommon for us spoiled Americans 8-} - and the expectation is that you will perform a solid cleaning before departing.

Fabulous views

Great location for Karikari exploring. Beautiful views from deck. Simple bach with lots of beds. Steep gravel driveway so check your vehicle can do it before you whizz up. Quiet spot.

Beautiful spot!

We loved our stay in Whatuwhiwhi. The house was a lovely typical kiwi bach and the view of the bay was awesome. The bay was perfect for our 3 year old to play and swim in! Our hosts were super easy to communicate with. Hopefully we'll be back!
