Ocean-front beach house

Nestled right on the dunes at Waitarere, this fantastic house offers beautiful views and direct access to the beach—perfect for long walks, sunset strolls, and unwinding.

In summer, make the most of the large section with plenty of great spots to relax—including a covered outdoor dining area. In winter, enjoy the warmth of the cosy woodburner.

The bach is well set up for everyone, with books, games, and magazines for adults, plus toys, swings, and a treehouse to keep the kids entertained.

Sleeping up to six adults, it includes three bedrooms in the main house and a separate sleepout with two bedrooms and its own bathroom, offering a little extra space and privacy.

Great for couples, families, or a weekend away with friends. We’re also dog-friendly—bring your dog along (just keep them off the furniture). The back section is fully fenced for peace of mind.

There's lots to see and do on the Kapiti coast and Horowhenua: food venues, some wonderful little shops, and outdoor adventures and sightseeing. In Waitarere itself we have a fantastic 4Square that does coffee and pastries and has a great range of groceries.

You'll love the view, the sunsets and the walks on the beach. Come and enjoy.

Relaxing beach bach stay

Have enjoyed several stays in this lovely kiwi beach bach with everything you need for a seaside getaway. Comfortable and tidy. Great spot to kick back and take in the sea view. Covered courtyard area fabulous and sheltered for all weathers. Short walk through the dunes to the ever-changing sea/beach and close to 4square for an ice cream and anything you need. Gen made things easy and lovely to deal with. Fantastic place to relax and recharge.
