Split Apple Holiday Home - Kaiteriteri

Here at Split Apple Holiday Home, incredible ocean views greet you from almost every angle. Perched above golden-sand beaches and the sparkling waters of the Abel Tasman, this spacious hilltop come beach retreat is designed for unforgettable getaways with family or friends.

Expansive wraparound decks provide multiple spots to relax, sunbathe, or entertain, while the surrounding native bush trail leads you directly down to the beach below.

Unwind under sunny skies or starry nights, fire up the outdoor pizza oven or large BBQ for alfresco feasts, and let the kids bounce to their hearts’ content on the trampoline. Whether you’re soaking up the sun or enjoying a quiet evening surrounded by nature, there’s something here for everyone.

Inside, the home is flooded with natural light through unimpeded and extensive glazing that frames sea views, lush forest and even the stars above.

The kitchen is a chef’s dream—featuring a central island with sink and cooktop, pantry, crockery drawers, a wall-recessed fridge, microwave, and Nespresso pod machine.

The open-plan living area features soaring cathedral ceilings, a large Frame TV, plush leather lounges, and a cozy fireplace with firewood provided for cooler evenings. Large bi-folding doors allow the home to open up to the decks and outdoor living areas.

Whether you're gathering for a summer holiday or a winter escape, this welcoming and well-appointed home is the perfect setting to create lasting memories.
