About this property

Beachside at Snells - Snells Beach Apartment

Beachside at Snells is a great Snells Beach Holiday Apartment located across the road from the beach!

This Snells Beach accommodation offers a prime location in which to have great relaxing holiday with your family! Beachside at Snells is well appointed, very comfortable and relaxing.

As you enter the home you will see the stairwell on the left hand side and then the bedroom and the bathroom on the right hand side. With 1 queen size bed and 1 single bed, this Snells Beach holiday apartment is ideally suited to a couple or small family looking to spend time exploring the Rodney District.

The stairwell is open without hand railing on one side and therefore this accommodation is not suitable for small children.

Upstairs is the living area which opens out onto a deck facing the beach; a lovely spot to relax and enjoy the sun. The open living area is bright and cheerful with all you need to kick back and relax during your stay.

This Snells Beach holiday accommodation is situated in a quiet cul-de-sac with the only distraction being the sound of the gentle lapping of the waves... Bliss!

Snells Beach is popular with families and is in close proximity to the Matakana region. Be at the famous Matakana Markets within just 10 minutes, wineries are a short drive away, and the township of Warkworth is less than 15 minutes away!

Beachside at Snells is set in a picturesque location, which is great for those relaxing escapes from the city. Get away from it all and put your feet up at Beachside at Snells!
The stairway is open from the top to the bottom floor, with no outside railing making this property not ideal for staying here with young children and all guests should take care in this area due to the risk of falls.

As the property has unfenced beach access, adults must supervise young children outdoors to ensure their safety around water.

The apartment is in a complex with other apartments.

Please note a bond may be charged at certain times of the year. One of our team members will contact you if this is required for your booking.

Total Pleaser

I am very hard to please yet, I'm very pleased with our stay! Whether it is the owner's touch or the Bachcare agent, this has been the best bach so far in terms of how thoughtfully appointed it is. And immaculately clean! We only missed a hose at the front. A 10 out of 10!

Lovely spot, shame about the plumbing

Super cute place right on the beach. Loved the decor and enjoyed sitting on the deck for breakfast. The bed was super soft and cosy and the house nice and clean. Main issue was the shower drain being blocked and flooding the bathroom. That required us to clean it up (gross) and also have phone calls to and from the property manager to organise someone to fix it. Definitely spoilt things having to have our phones on and not being able to shower.

Lovely apartment on the beach

Our stay at Snells Beach has been incredible. The apartment is so clean, spacious sand has absolutely everything you need. The view out the front of the apartment is second to none and was a pleasure to wake up to each morning. I definitely recommend staying here and my family will certainly be returning.

Escape the city

This property was perfect for a weekend escape from the city. But you could stay longer if you needed to. It was warm, clean, tidy and had everything we needed. Straight out in front is the beach, you can walk to a children's playground and it's a short drive to Matakana. Agree the stairs would be tricky with toddlers. We would definitely stay again. Thanks!

Compact apartment right on the beachside reserve looking between pohutukawa trees across to Kawau. Probably not the best beach for swimming in the area because the tide goes out a long way but great for kite surfing and walking along the beach. Apartment very comfortable with the extras of a family bach such as games and puzzles. TV and DVD player with selection of DVDs. Excellent bed. Felt like the owners enjoyed staying there too. Some basic provisions supplied.
