    Nearby in village- Surf life saving operating during the Summer. Little nippers club during Summer school holidays. Bar open from 5.30 and big screen for 'the game'!

    Things to do-
    - Visit the blow hole at the south end of the beach on a rough day- awesome!!!
    -Walk through the native bush to Waimama reserve opposite- lovely to walk through the bush and pohutukawas to the next beach where there are rock pools and fishing. Nice swimming too in the more sheltered Waimama Bay. Keep walking over the hills to the 'secret special beach' and the cave, waterfall and ship wreck. Magic!
    -Only 15 minutes from Whangamata- surf beach, boating, shops,cafes and boat ramp,
    - Only 15 minutes from Waihi, for gold history and steam train, and golf, supermarket, and cafes
    - Stroll to the local shop that does a good coffee too and has nearly everything you might need, including fish and chips at the weekend and holidays. Open daily
    - Heaps of walks around the area. Stop in the Karangahake Gorge between Paeroa and Waihi. Explore the Coromandel Forest Park and Wentworth Valley waterfalls if you are more adventurous, but you probably won't go anywhere!!

Amazing location right on the lagoon. A paradise for children with safe shallow swimming in view of the house. The house is so well set up for families and generously stocked with games, books and sports gear. We loved our time here and can’t wait to come back! Host is super friendly and helpful too.

Margaret was very helpful, lots of contact and useful information. The property was as described and had everything needed for a family fun getaway. The location and views was the clincher for us, the photos don't do it justice. It was breathtaking and simply perfect. We are all keen to come again.

This Bach never disappoints! Best location in Whiritoa. We absolutely love staying here everything you need and more right there - kayaks are a lovely addition to enjoy an easy paddle up the estuary. Views are spectacular and somehow even though this is a perfect beach location we feel secluded and private. Will be booking again soon.

We've been coming here for years but I'm still always impressed by the view- love sitting on the deck looking out to the sea. It is so nice to switch off, listen to the waves and enjoy time with the family here, thanks Margaret for sharing your wonderful bach with us!

Had a perfect stay just as imagined. Perfect location to the lagoon, which was awesome for my young girls 4&2. Such a nice nostalgia to the bach with everything you may need. Recommended.
