About this property

Stunning views of the Parinui

Located just metres away from the Truman Track, with a backdrop of towering white cliffs of the Paparoa Ranges, and stunning views of the Tasman sea, Parinui is a must for families looking for the space to enjoy a holiday on the stunning West Coast.

This self- contained holiday home is located in the Te Miko settlement, just 3km north of the Pancake Rocks walkway and shops. Three bedrooms and two bathrooms and ample space for all, the house sleeps 6 adults comfortably, with the downstairs queen-sized bed converting to two singles for even more sleeping options. The upstairs balcony wraps around the house so you can enjoy sun from the first morning rays through to stunning sunsets over the sea. Have breakfast or a BBQ dinner enjoying the views or the watching the visiting bird life. *Please note - linen is not supplied even though it is shown in the photos.

Most excellent house and location.Better than expected. We all loved it very much.( Down stairs room had a musty smell.. somewhat to be expected for a sub topical rainforest. If that could be sorted it would be absolutely Perfect.)Truly a great place for a getaway.Thank you.

Ideal holiday home

This was an ideal home to both hang out in and use as a base for all the amazing riches that Punakaiki has to offer. It was clean and comfortable, the views were incredible, and the communication and organisation was great.

Extended family holiday

We really enjoyed the setting, tucked into the bush with views of the sea. The house was well equipped and worked well for us. The only disappointment was it was too warm to even consider lighting the log fire!

Absolutely fab

This is an amazing spot. The house is nestled into the bush with a view to the sea. Short walk to the beach. Plenty of room for everyone to enjoy. We had 4 teenagers and they all raved about the things they could do and see. We will be returning

Jungle House

I took to calling this property the jungle house because it felt secluded inside a dense deep jungle. There are homes nearby but you won't notice them, you will feel private and emmersed in nature with the sights and sounds of the ocean as well.

Punakiki Pleasure

The weather was fantastic and the sun streams into the dining area in the mornings with fantastic views to the cliffs and bush behind the house. If you want a chilled out holiday stay this is the place. Heaps to do for three days with the Truman walking track to the ocean very adjacent to the house along with Punakiki canoeing. We think the provision of a gas bottle to the barbque should be supplied as it is too dangerous to bring your own in a SUV. A barbie is synonymous with a Kiwi holiday and we missed this. A pleasure to be able to stay here. Geoff

Lovely stay

Lovely spacious place near the beach. Great communication with owner. Does smell a bit musty especially downstairs. Don’t forget to take own shower soap as there is none. Lovely stay overall and would definitely stay again.
