Book a private yoga session or a reiki relaxation. Allow your whole body to be nourished. Bespoke, cozy cabin in amongst nature, steps into the space. Choose a queen or two single beds. Sleeps 2 adults, or 1 adult and 2 children. The cabin has a kettle and toaster as well as plates/cutlery etc. There is a small seating area and storage unit, plus outdoor table and chairs. Short walking distance to the toilet/bathroom facilities and kitchen in the house. Option to cook outside if weather is good on a two-burner gas hob. Cooking of fish ok permitted in the house but no other meat, thanks. No smoking on site. Enjoy being part of the family or have more time on your own, the choice is yours. Set on 1.5 acres of landscaped gardens. Set in vibrant gardens with a stream running through. A place to retreat to with someone you love, on your own or with a friend. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the apartment: WiFi ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Laundry - Dryer - Laundry facilities ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### 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/115000000/114160000/114159100/114159013/5603a266.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Elevated views - Fully equipped and comfortable top floor near Russell and Opua Okiato - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Air conditioning [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-23&endDate=2025-12-24&selected=114159013&PinnedHotelID=114159013&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Courtyard](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/5000000/4420000/4417500/4417457/f6628e16.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Bay of Islands Lodge Paihia - Parking included - Free WiFi - Laundry - Microwave 8.8 Excellent 56 reviews CA $80 CA $92 total includes taxes & fees Dec 15 - Dec 16 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-15&endDate=2025-12-16&selected=4417457&PinnedHotelID=4417457&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/111000000/110940000/110938500/110938478/f67c29fc.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Sneezle Beezle Beach Apartment Omapere - Kitchen - Outdoor space - Parking available - Barbecue grill 9.6 Exceptional 15 reviews CA $111 CA $153 total includes taxes & fees Dec 11 - Dec 12 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-11&endDate=2025-12-12&selected=110938478&PinnedHotelID=110938478&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![TV, books, stereo](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/85000000/84090000/84082100/84082058/86c93f46.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### No other quite like it!
