About this property
Couples Retreat with spectacular views and spa.
Brand new in 2021, a boho style, luxuriously furnished private retreat set in almost 3 acres of garden and surrounded by native bush. The only sounds you will hear are the insects and the abundant birdlife. You will be surrounded by nature and stunning vistas from your balcony from Bowentown to White Island. Perfect for a romantic getaway or a relax and reset from busy life. You have the entire property to yourself. We are also a very short walk from a large recreational park with bush walks, bike tracks and crystal clear swimming holes. A great base to explore the Bay of Plenty too, with stunning beaches within a 30 minute drive and the local golf course at the end of the road.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Craig Jamieson
We have done the 'escape to the country' and purchased this 2 and a half acre property just a few years ago, with extensive gardens and views to die for. We have come from managing a Mount Maunganui Motel and loved the thought of sharing our new property with others so built an apartment style retreat to host guests.
Why they chose this property
This is the perfect property to take time out, rewind and reset. There's books to read and a picnic basket ready and waiting. We provide a garden map and there is so much to explore, we have 4 layers of gardens extensively planted. Come relax in the spa and soak in the views. Past guests tell us the photo's just don't do our Retreat justice, when there's a view there's always something to do!
What makes this property unique
This property is unique, surrounded by native bush but perfectly positioned to explore the Bay of Plenty (if you ever want to leave!). With New Zealand's best beach, Mount Maunganui just 40 minutes drive in one direction and the Karangahake Gorge just 40 minutes in the other direction. We have bush walks, river walks, art walks (less that 10 minutes drive in the mural town of Katikati). The newly opened Waitekohekohe Recreational Park is just a couple of hundred metres from our gate. So much to see and do if you have a few days to explore.
