Sip your favourite drink in the sunshine, kick back on the outdoor furniture, or gather around the BBQ and alfresco dining table for long, laid-back evenings. If the weather keeps you indoors, there’s plenty of space to spread out in the cosy lounge. Grab a book, stream your favourite show on the TV, or whip up some snacks in the well-equipped kitchen. The generous lawn offers a safe, partially-fenced area where kids and pets can play freely while you enjoy peace of mind from the deck. And if you’ve brought the boat, there’s ample space to park it—plus a public boat ramp nearby for easy access to the water. Virtue Escape comfortably sleeps up to 10 guests across four bedrooms, with the third and fourth bedroom located in a self-contained unit—ideal for extended family or friends. A full bathroom and laundry provide everything you need for a stress-free stay. Tokerau Beach is just a short stroll away, perfect for swimming, paddleboarding, or beach walks. Within a 10-minute drive, you can explore the secluded Maitai Bay, or enjoy a round of golf and wine tasting at Carrington Golf Club and Karikari Estate. The local shops and takeaways at Whatuwhiwhi are only three minutes away by car. Whether you're here for sun-soaked beach days, local adventures, or pure relaxation, Virtue Escape is your perfect base on the magical Karikari Peninsula.
