Relaxation facing the sea

Relax on NZ's safest beach during the day, walk over the road and shower off outside to enjoy a cold one while watching the ocean and the world go by. Wander down to the beach for the sunset.
Please note: Sky TV is available excluding movie channels.

Start with a fresh oyster entree from Ohiwa Oyster Farm (when in season, 5 minutes drive over the hill), bbq at home or choose from local eateries Chez Louis' French pizzeria, or the newly opened Cadera (Mexican). Or you can enjoy good ol' kiwi favourites, fish and chips on the beach. Whakatane is 15 minutes over the hill for a bigger selection of eateries.

We have one, 1 bedroom downstairs unit with a King size bed in the bedroom and a double pull-out sofa bed in the main living area. Ideal for a couple, or for a family of 4, it is private and has seperate entry to the main house. There is double off street parking in front of the unit. Outdoor bbq and table setting with lawn area.

There is plenty to do in Ohope including a day trip to NZ's most active volcano, White Island. Enjoy coastal walks, Awakeri Hotpools, a round of golf at Ohope International Golf Club (5mins) and fresh berry ice creams at Julian's Berry farm (20mins).

Come and relax at this beautiful location and fall asleep to the sound of the waves.

This property is well located just across the road from a lovely beach. Plenty of room for two people very clean and tidy with all the things in it you need although only microwave cooking which didn't bother us as there are plenty of nice places to eat around there. Would thoroughly recommend.

Bliss!

Beautifully presented downstairs area of the main house, clean and tidy and super lovely hosts. We really enjoyed our stay and the short walk across the road to the beach was perfect. A really lovely spot and we would love to stay again… my little man enjoyed the chocolates and the morning visits from the friendly cat!
