its been our tradition to come to Cooks beach every Waitangi weekend in last 5 years. And honestly, this house is the best among houses we rented. it has everything we needed and pleanty of pleasant extras. House feels new, very clean and tidy. we had 10ppl group and had pleanty of space. Location is superb - beautiful scenery, quite and peaceful. big lawn for kids to run around and play sports.
Kayaks were included in our stay and it was so easy and simple just take it across the lawn to the water and take an amazing trip down the stream, explore mangroves, watch fish and just enjoy the summer. all life jackets for kids and adults provided. heaps of different sport and board games for all ages.
house has spacious floorplan, very comfy beds, bedrooms have good soundproofing, not that much noise when kids are in the living room. Tv room have a door and is separated from the living space.
Not much shade outside in the morning, but afternoons were just a pure pleasure
we will definitely be back!
This was our second time staying at this property. It is a great house for families and the estuary lends itself well to children during both high and low tides. We did feel however that the quantity of kitchen and laundry powders, toilet paper, lack of tea towels and hand towels was not reflected in the nightly price. There was nothing to clean up spills with, other than our own towels, and we had to buy extra supplies to see us through our 7 nights as we were only given enough for 2 - 3 days. Not great considering the price you pay. The stretchers that were pictured were not at the Bach on arrival so we had to come up with another plan. Other than that it was good, but not as great as the last time we stayed.
Lovely, modern and spacious house. Perfect location to enjoy the Estuary and walk to beach. Also very handy to Mercury Ridge, our wedding venue. Big open sliding doors in living area to help with the particularly hots days while we were there. ( it was very hot.) Fans also provided in each room to help with the very warm evening temperature.
Cooks beach a great location to get away.
New modern easy living home well equipped with indoor outdoor flow onto the waterfront.
