its been our tradition to come to Cooks beach every Waitangi weekend in last 5 years. And honestly, this house is the best among houses we rented. it has everything we needed and pleanty of pleasant extras. House feels new, very clean and tidy. we had 10ppl group and had pleanty of space. Location is superb - beautiful scenery, quite and peaceful. big lawn for kids to run around and play sports.
Kayaks were included in our stay and it was so easy and simple just take it across the lawn to the water and take an amazing trip down the stream, explore mangroves, watch fish and just enjoy the summer. all life jackets for kids and adults provided. heaps of different sport and board games for all ages.
house has spacious floorplan, very comfy beds, bedrooms have good soundproofing, not that much noise when kids are in the living room. Tv room have a door and is separated from the living space.
Not much shade outside in the morning, but afternoons were just a pure pleasure
we will definitely be back!
