About this property

Retreat into Connection – A Couples Sanctuary by the Sea

A calm, cosy retreat for two, just minutes from the sea.

This peaceful, self-contained studio in Raumati South is designed for couples seeking space to rest, reconnect, and enjoy each other’s company in a slower, more spacious way. Set at the rear of a quiet garden property, the space is simple, serene, and ideal for a quiet weekend or midweek pause.

You’ll walk past the main house to reach the studio, which sits privately at the back of the section.
I live onsite and am available if needed, while respecting your space and privacy throughout your stay.

You’re welcome to choose between a loft-style bed or a fold-out couch bed, depending on what suits you best.
Please bring your own linen and towels.

The studio includes an ensuite bathroom, a small kitchenette for basic food preparation, and a peaceful outdoor seating area.
No meals or breakfast are provided.
Expect birdsong in the morning and evening, and a gentle rhythm that supports slowing down together.

Optional Add-On: Imago Couples Session

During your stay, you're welcome to book a one-hour Imago-style couples session—a safe, respectful space to deepen connection and improve communication. These sessions are guided with care and offered only by request. If you'd like to know more, feel free to enquire when booking. - extra charge applies
