Relax in our spacious studio space. Lay and watch the gentle sway of the tree tops from a hammock. Go exploring on our expansive property and check out our BIG trees that survived the logging era. Cook up a feed on the webber and enjoy a few drinks on the covered deck area. If the skies are clear stay up and watch the star show (which can be spectacular!!!). The main studio is located on the ground floor of our house. This sleeps four people. One queen and two singles. There's also a sleepout with a queen bed which you are welcome to use. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach loungers ### Internet - Available in the apartment: WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchenette - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Electric kettle - Refrigerator - Stovetop ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Entertainment - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - One pet total ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Location highlights - In a rural location - Near a hospital ### Things to do - Birdwatching nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Scuba diving nearby - Snorkeling nearby - Swimming nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - No carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is no carbon monoxide detector on the property but there are gas appliances; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - 100% renewable energy - At least 80% lighting from LEDs - Composting - Comprehensive recycling policy - Garden ## Similar properties ![TV](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/97000000/96340000/96331400/96331388/73b8fbb9.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Hosts on the Coast Panorama Vista Pauanui - Washer - Free WiFi - Parking available - Microwave [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-06&endDate=2026-02-07&selected=96331388&PinnedHotelID=96331388&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/39000000/38080000/38079700/38079632/092f74aa.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Stunning Tryphena Harbour and Hauraki Gulf views Tryphena - Kitchen - Parking available - Fireplace - Living/Dining area 8.8 Excellent 42 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-06&endDate=2026-02-07&selected=38079632&PinnedHotelID=38079632&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/67000000/66840000/66839700/66839685/128f85d0.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Little Bay Eco House - Kaka Cottage overlooking the ocean and up in the trees Waikawau - Ocean view - Kitchen - Washer - Free WiFi 10 Exceptional 63 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-06&endDate=2026-02-07&selected=66839685&PinnedHotelID=66839685&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/46000000/45050000/45040300/45040283/cec25ecc.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Pipi Palace - Whangamata Bach Whangamata - Kitchen - Washer - Pet friendly - Outdoor Space 10 Exceptional 3 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-06&endDate=2026-02-07&selected=45040283&PinnedHotelID=45040283&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/111000000/110600000/110599400/110599398/4e8867aa.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Whanga Bach - Whangamata Holiday Home Whangamata - Kitchen - Washer - Pet friendly - Outdoor Space [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-06&endDate=2026-02-07&selected=110599398&PinnedHotelID=110599398&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, dishwasher](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/38000000/38000000/37991100/37991096/a1e1346d.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Sunny house near Golf Course and Recreation Centre Whangamata - Pool - Kitchen - Washer - Pet friendly 9.8 Exceptional 68 reviews CA $162 CA $312 total includes taxes & fees Feb 23 - Feb 24 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-23&endDate=2026-02-24&selected=37991096&PinnedHotelID=37991096&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/38000000/37920000/37918900/37918822/304b2dc6.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Lazy Days (at Whangamata) Whangamata - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet friendly 9.2 Wonderful 226 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-06&endDate=2026-02-07&selected=37918822&PinnedHotelID=37918822&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/113000000/112910000/112901100/112901078/4f732457.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Sun-Kissed Shores of Tairua!!

Dec 31, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy It is a super peaceful bach in the bush. Jaci was extremely helpful and kind and very understanding when we changed our plans for the weather ##### Lucy J. Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Peter S. Apr 2, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Island Adventure... Enjoyable stay with comfortable bed, plenty of towels available and close to Ferry landing.Major issue for us was the extremely rough track which wasn't a pleasant experience each time we went out and came back. We would consider it more than a "bumpy driveway". Smart TV did not work after day 2 unless it was operator error. Otherwise everything was available that enables us to have an enjoyable stay. ##### Peter S.
