Feel the stress melt away as soon as you arrive, put your bags down and waste no time hitting the pristine beach just out in front of the studio.

The beach is perfect for swimming as it is quite protected. There are also plenty of opportunities here for snorkelling, stand-up paddle-boarding, kayaking, and fishing in and around the bay, so don't forget to pack your gear!

Had wrong gate code from you. Had great weather which always makes things better. Would have been grateful of early advice that water was in short supply. Nice community at Tapuaetahi though disappointing restrictions on where you could walk.
