## About this property

### Entire place

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

### Sea Serenity - Ruakaka Holiday Home

Step inside to an open-plan living area with seamless indoor-outdoor flow onto a private deck, complete with a BBQ and plenty of outdoor furniture. Relax and enjoy quality time together—whether dining alfresco, cooking up a storm, or simply lounging in the fresh sea air.  
  
Equipped with everything you need for a laid-back holiday, Sea Serenity offers a generous front lawn for family games of cricket or unwinding in the sun. You’ll also enjoy the convenience of Sky Sport, TV with Chromecast, and a dishwasher to make cleanup a breeze. The owners have left games, puzzles and kids toys for all to enjoy.  
  
This renovated 1970’s holiday home that the owners love and use often, comfortably accommodates up to six guests across three bedrooms, furnished with two queen beds, a double bunk bed, and a bunk bed—ensuring everyone has a restful night’s sleep after days of beach adventures.  
  
Outside, there’s ample off-street parking for cars, plus dedicated boat parking for vessels up to 7 meters, with a nearby boat ramp at the marina allowing you to hit the water with ease. Located just 800 meters from the beach, Sea Serenity promises fun for all ages, with safe swimming spots, sandy shores, and the surf beach—patrolled over the summer—just a short walk away.  
  
The Ruakaka Town Centre, with its mini-supermarket and specialty stores, is only 70 meters from your doorstep, providing easy access to essentials. Sea Serenity is your ideal base for a relaxing and memorable coastal getaway.  
Please note a bond may be charged at certain times of the year. One of our team members will contact you if this is required for your booking.
