Moana Anu Cottage has a warm welcoming feel set in a large garden. The home has a real country colonial vibe. The house is located at the estuary end of Whangamata. This delightful bach has 3 bedrooms, 1 with a queen bed, the second with 2 singles, and the third with a king bed and 2 singles. There are 2 bathrooms, one upstairs and one down, and they each have walk-in showers. There is also a washing machine for use during your stay. The living areas downstairs are comfortable and airy. There is a little seating area by the stairs which looks out onto the deck and garden with large French doors. It's a great place to sit & read a book. The dining table has seating for 6 people and is close to the kitchen which is a good size with great bench space and all the mod cons including a dishwasher. Head down a couple of steps and here you will find the lounge with comfortable seating and a smart TV. It's a great place to relax in the evenings. Again there are French doors that open onto the deck which will let in a nice cool breeze on warm summer nights, or if you have headed away for a winter getaway there is a fireplace to keep the home nice and warm. There is also a heat pump. Outside on the deck, there is outdoor furniture and a BBQ to make the most of the garden view, and on warm evenings have dinner there or enjoy afternoon snacks and drinks. This home is also pet friendly which is fantastic as few places allow you to bring your furry friends away with you. We ask that you please respect the house and pick up after your furry little mate before you leave.

Whangamata is about an hour and a half from Auckland, Hamilton or Tauranga and is a popular coastal town with a fantastic surf and swimming beach.

There are plenty of shops and cafes in the town take a drive out to Opoutere Beach and check out the Coastal Bird Reserve, or grab your paddleboard and head to the estuary where the waters are a bit calmer. Let's not forget that Whangamata is home to the famous Beach Hop held every March for a week where vintage cars, caravans and motorbikes from all around NZ are showcased. Vintage markets are operating and it's a family-friendly party atmosphere not to be missed!
