About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Estuary Edge - A Slice of Paradise

Estuary Edge is a studio apartment overlooking the Plummer's Point estuary.

The studio is located on a sunny orchard property, surrounded by bush and fruit trees.

There are many awesome places to explore in the area - Plummer's Point peninsular and wharf, the fountain gardens, horse treks, and various fishing spots are all close by.

There is access to the estuary directly from the front of the studio. Enjoy a morning dip or wander.

Escape the crowds and enjoy a stay in paradise!

Mt Maunganui, downtown Tauranga, Omokoroa and Waihi are all within easy reach from this location.

Please note:
- A train bridge crosses the estuary nearby, so you may hear the odd train passing, but we find this isn't disruptive and can be fun to watch!
- The studio is mainly available only for weekend/extended weekend stays (e.g. Fri-Mon). However, feel free to make an enquiry if you have other requirements as we are happy to discuss.
- The owners live on the property, but you have privacy for your stay.
Thanks!

Extras: Linen (included); Wifi (included)

NOTE: Under Kiwi bach tradition you are expected to: Leave the place clean/tidy and do the dishes before you leave.
