With a cozy queen bed, relaxed bach atmosphere, and an incredible outlook over the Onekaka estuary, this little retreat captures the true Golden Bay vibe. Just a few steps from the ocean and a beautiful beach, it’s the ideal spot to unwind, reconnect, and enjoy the simple magic of the coast. The Space: Welcome to Estuary View Escape, a charming one-bedroom Kiwi bach tucked away in peaceful Onekaka. Compact, cosy, and full of character, this little hideaway is all about switching off and soaking up the beauty right outside your window. The bach overlooks the shimmering estuary, with ever-changing tides, native birds, and soft coastal light creating the perfect backdrop for a relaxing stay. Inside, the open-plan living area feels warm and inviting, with comfortable seating, a cute dining nook, and large windows framing the water views. The décor is simple and homely, with thoughtful touches that make the space feel instantly welcoming. The kitchen is well equipped for easy holiday cooking. The bedroom features a comfortable queen bed with lovely natural light. From here, you can wake up to the peaceful sounds of nature. The bathroom is neat, with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Step outside onto the deck and you’ll find the true magic of this little bach — a private spot to enjoy your morning cuppa, watch the tide roll in, or unwind with a glass of wine as the sun sets over the hills. The outdoor area feels wonderfully secluded, surrounded by greenery with wide views across the sparkling water. If you’re looking for a simple, beautiful, and peaceful coastal escape, this bach offers all the charm of classic Kiwi holidaying with a view you’ll never want to leave. The Neighborhood: Onekaka is one of Golden Bay’s hidden gems — peaceful, scenic, and wonderfully unspoilt. Nestled between Takaka and Collingwood, this small coastal community is known for its relaxed atmosphere, big open skies, and beautiful natural surroundings. Life moves gently here, with the tides, the birds, and the changing colours of the estuary setting the rhythm of the day. From the bach, you’re just moments from the water, where you can stroll along the shoreline, watch wading birds feeding in the shallows, or enjoy the soft glow of sunrise across the estuary. The area is perfect for those who love nature, photography, or simply unwinding somewhere quiet and beautiful. Onekaka is also home to a small, friendly community with a creative streak. A short drive brings you to the iconic Mussel Inn — a Golden Bay favourite for its craft beers, delicious food, and live music nights. You’re also within easy reach of Collingwood village, with its cafés, general store, estuary walkway, and access to Farewell Spit. Takaka is just a little further along the road, offering shops, supermarkets, galleries, and great dining options. Whether you’re here for a peaceful retreat, coastal exploring, or a romantic break, Onekaka offers the perfect balance of tranquility and convenience, with some of the region’s best beaches and walking tracks only a short drive away. Other Things to Note: We supply fresh hotel-quality linen along with everyday basics such as coffee, tea, sugar, and milk. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby ### Internet - Available in the accommodation: WiFi ### Parking and transportation -
