About this property

Banana Bungalow: serenity, balcony views, central & tropical setting

Set in a very tranquil part of Raglan - but walking distance to town, you'll only hear the Pukekos calling at night and luxuriate on the deck under the expansive starscape.

Relax in your self-contained studio with a comfortable queen bed, large bathroom with shower and toilet, well appointed kitchenette with ample bench space and good sized fridge.

If you need extra space for a couple of kids or friends we have a separate bunkroom available by arrangement, warm and cosy.

Wander through the shared, lush gardens, take a short walk into town and cool off in the outdoor shower after a hard day at the beach. Cruiser bikes for popping into town and an inflatable double kayak are available too. Welcome!

About the host

Hosted by JohnWatson

Host profile image
Originally from Auckland, I've made Raglan my home and enjoy helping guests find the best possible experiences and eateries in Whaingaroa.

Why they chose this property

The Studios are walking distance to town, but are nestled in their own private area, which is very quiet and safe with a great view overlooking a reserve.

What makes this property unique

The Studio has a deck with a view overlooking the tropical gardens, space to wander amongst the banana trees and we are doing a native re-vegetation project in the Reserve with the local Community to bring the birds right in to the garden and surrounds.
