### Piha - City Escape, Piha Holiday Home

Step into a postcard-perfect getaway at Piha - City Escape. Perched harmoniously up on the hillside boasting phenomenal panoramic views of Karekare.  
  
Wake up to the sound of native birds, enjoy a freshly plunged cup of coffee out on the decking in the sun and taking in the fresh morning air with nothing but the rolling Waitakere ranges and blue ocean waters out to the horizon.  
  
The elegant and tasteful interior has been thoughtfully curated to create a relaxing holiday atmosphere for your stay. With big windows throughout the living areas and bedrooms that frame those stunning views, the indoor/outdoor flow is impressive.  
  
In those hot summer days cool off under the air-conditioning inside and then in those colder months, snuggle up in the lounge around the fireplace with a glass of wine in hand!  
  
Spend your days down on the beach for sun sand and of course, good surf just a quick 7-minute drive or get out and about trecking through the iconic Waitakere Ranges.  
  
You won't want to be anywhere else when each day ends. Piha - City Escape welcomes you!

Easy check-in and beautiful location. The roads are twisty but was not bothered after as it was very quiet and away from the busy areas so was worth it. Would recommend.

very lovely set out. very relaxing, great to be so close a drive to 2 x beaches, and to return to a cozy house. disappointed no hair dryer or bucket for ashes to clean out fire place or fire poker for fire place easy fix though.

#### Lovely views

Enjoyed our stay there really nice property and short drive to beach and activities in the area. Quite a steep stair case to the main bedroom (no handrail). Would be great to have a list regarding operating TV, disposal of rubbish, recycling etc. (roadside bins were full). Overall really nice property and would stay again.
