About this property
Sunset Escape - Stunning Beachfront Views
Unwind, relax and enjoy the amazing sea views and stunning sunsets at our beautiful beach front home. We are a just a short walk down the hill to the beach and local park, and only a 15 minute drive from Whanganui. There is a patrolled swimming area during the summer months. The fishing is fantastic, and there is plenty of fish to be caught either by surf casting or long lines and also white baiting in season.
