This location (1h20m from central Auckland) is perfect to relax and unwind or to be active with walking, swimming (boulder beach), biking, kayaking, or fishing. The sea is in front of you and the view of the Coromandel Peninsula across the Firth of Thames is stunning. The upstairs living (two of the bedrooms and a bathroom are downstairs) with decks north and east provides a delightful perch over the vast bay. There are lawns at the front and the back of the house. The Waharau Regional Park just down the road offers several flat and hilly tracks for varying levels of fitness, and for real walking enthusiasts the Hunua range is accessible from the park. The closest shop is 9 kms south at Kaiaua, where you can rent a bike, buy fish & chips, petrol and there is a pub. Thames township is a 45 minute drive, and the gorgeous Tapapakanga (coastal) Regional Park is 12 minutes north by car. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Food and drink - Dishwasher - Microwave - Oven - Stovetop ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Fireplace ### Entertainment - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Safety features - No carbon monoxide detector or gas appliances (host has indicated there are no carbon monoxide detectors or gas appliances on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ## Similar properties ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/104000000/103930000/103922700/103922649/9a145eec.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Modern 3-bds Townhouse in South Auckland Auckland - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Air conditioning CA $236 CA $615 total includes taxes & fees Jan 27 - Jan 28 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-27&endDate=2026-01-28&selected=103922649&PinnedHotelID=103922649&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/106000000/105860000/105850300/105850280/43cf90cf.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Sandy Feet Retreat close to Beach Clarks Beach - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Free WiFi 6.8 3 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-09&endDate=2026-02-10&selected=105850280&PinnedHotelID=105850280&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/115000000/114620000/114614200/114614119/d24c99a0.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Elevated Family Sized Guest-house with Beautiful Views Henderson - Kitchen - Washer - Free WiFi - Air conditioning 10 Exceptional 9 reviews CA $219 CA $377 total includes taxes & fees Jan 27 - Jan 28 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-27&endDate=2026-01-28&selected=114614119&PinnedHotelID=114614119&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/108000000/107070000/107067800/107067782/eb8c7972.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Ellerslie 3BR House | Fresh Reno | Zodiak Stays Ellerslie - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Air conditioning 7.0 Good 2 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-09&endDate=2026-02-10&selected=107067782&PinnedHotelID=107067782&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/118000000/117830000/117820100/117820009/33442657.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Stylish 4BR Townhouse Close to Mangere & Airport Favona - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Free WiFi [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-09&endDate=2026-02-10&selected=117820009&PinnedHotelID=117820009&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/38000000/38000000/37997900/37997830/bb3c191e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Great for Family, Private Getaway, Accommodation for Local Events.
