About this house rental
**Full refund offered for cancellations due to covid travel restriction**
Very spacious holiday house a short drive from Auckland. Close yet secluded, serene and a place to be enjoyed by all. Comfortably accommodates 12 guests.
The home is just a few steps to Waiwera Beach which is quite safe for the kids for either long walks, swims or just simply lying on the beach watching native woodpigeons across the river in the Wenderholm Regional Park’s native forests perhaps even catch a glimpse of Kawahi jumping out of the water.
Bring along your kayak / boat, fishing or snorkelling gear and paddle either upriver or down into white sandy Waiwera estuary and cove, great fishing and snorkelling just off and around Mahurangi Island. (Walk to the Mahurangi Island possible at low tide).
In the event the weather packs in, all is not lost as relax in the mineral spa or take the days swimming activities into Waiwaera Thermal and Spa Resort using our discount vouchers perhaps even spoil yourself with a massage or beauty makeover, or simply light up and relax by the fireplace with heaps of books, board games or movies provided.
Plenty of off-street parking available as well as safe no traffic 10 meter crossing to beach via adjacent park like reserve.
Waiwera Hot Pools / Thermal Spa Resort and Waiwera Spa Beauty and Massage Clinic are just a short walk from the bach (Please note that the Thermal Pools are currently closed for Maintenance but the house itself has a Geo-Thermal Mineral Pool for guests use). Orewa, Silverdale, Whangaparaoa or Warkworth townships are only minutes away for dining, exploring or shopping.

The location is stunning. Various family members went swimming, paddle boarding, walking & fishing. (caught some good snapper & an eel)
Very comfortable rooms, the lounge, dining perfect for a big group.
Lovely neighbours. The owner very helpful.
4.5
Great big house, stocked with everything that you need. Great swimming in front of the house especially for kids as its safe as.
Only comment or maybe more of an initiative for the owner is to erect a pergola/shelter at the front as it is very hot should you need to sit outdoors.

Easy care property for a big group, excellent location to explore Waiwera, Puhoi and the surrounding area. Great for walks and water activities.

Our kids were in heaven running around the beach and climbing the trees outside at this property. The home has plenty of toys around. The spa is a real treat!
Gorgeous views and one of the nice quiet nooks on the North Land!

Beautiful location and we have enjoyed being there. It would have been nice if there would have been an option for cleaning after our stay, but maybe we have not read well enough to see that option...

The house is old and well used, but so spacious, loads of beds and bathrooms, perfect beachfront spot for a weekend away. We had a great time and the owners were so fab at communicating and even offered for us to stay a little longer due to the cyclone! Very lovely personal touch. I have stayed before and will stay again if I have a large group. Thanks!

Very spacious - great for our three generations. Unfortunately there were some problems with the fridge, the electrical fuses and curtains falling off tracks. Enjoyed the clean linen and fluffy towels.

This was a very large house which perfectly suited our needs for the three families we had stay. Lots of books and toys that the kids spent themselves occupied with. Great location right on the beach, was so lovely to be a stones throw away with all the kids different nap times. The house did get SUPER hot though so would recommend taking lots of decent fans as it was hard to put the kids down at 7pm in the sweltering summer heat.
The thermal spa worked a treat when it rained one day during our stay and was easy to use. 4 showers and toilets meant we didnt have to wait hours for everyone to get ready so was awesome to have our own bathrooms. Water pressure on top floor was almost non existent when the other showers were going (not a surprise though for an older house and certainly not a major!).
Very friendly owners and great to deal with. We would definitely return after this great experience!

The place was a great size for our crew.
Some parts a wee bit worn but that meant we could relax more with the kids.
A good time had by all - loved the size of the kitchen for communal cooking

The property is so close to the beach you could sit on the front porch and watch your family playing in the sand (at low tide of course) It has had fair bit of wear & tear but perfect space for everyone including a large area for children to play inside. Luxury it is not but great for a group of friends or family.

The location was excellent. The house is a bit of a maze and finding the appropriate light switches was a bit challenging, but everything was well cared for, clean, fresh, well equipped and spacious, so we found our way around everything in the end. A great house for large crowds.
