Beautiful home in a spectacular location

We were an extended family group (from grandparents down to grandkids), in Whangamata for a family wedding. We wish we'd had longer than the weekend to stay and enjoy this beautiful property. The location is perfect, close to both beach and shops, and the layout and facilities made it a very enjoyable stay.

8/10 Good

A great place to stay within walking distance of the beach and the shops.

A great place to stay within walking distance of the beach and the shops. Loved the extra room. Would have liked wifi or Sky as our stay started with a tropical storm that lasted 3 days. Good supply of books helped.
