The Boatshed - Tauranga City's tranquil hideaway

The boatshed is the ultimate hideaway, with water lapping at your toes. It sits proudly on Tauranga's waterfront, offering tranquil views of Tauranga Harbour and the surrounding hills. A gentle amble to The Strand and Tauranga CBD provides an abundant choice of restaurants, cafes, and shops. Days spent in this unique accommodation will create the most relaxing and blissful holiday memories.

This architecturally designed, award-winning holiday home offers a unique retreat in an excellent location. The tastefully styled interiors and spacious, open-plan living areas create an inviting space, perfect for enjoying the peaceful views. The kitchen is brilliantly equipped with modern appliances for your convenience.

The boatshed features a two-level layout, comfortably sleeping four guests. Upstairs, you'll find two bedrooms, each with an en-suite bathroom. Downstairs, there's a spacious open-plan kitchen and dining area — ideal for relaxed summer evenings with a sundowner.

For those who wish to enjoy the water, a boat mooring is available, and guests have access to a kayak and dinghy. Please note that the owner's boat is permanently stored in the boatshed and is not available for guest use.

Two parking spaces are provided at the end of a cul-de-sac in a designated residential parking area. From there, you'll follow a garden pathway down to the boatshed, which is wonderfully situated right on the water's edge.

This unique property offers a perfect hideaway that promises a delightful stay.

Superb quality accommodation. We loved the feeling of being on the water, the comfortable bed, spacious living area and the cool feature of the boat being visible behind a glass wall. Every aspect was perfect and to offer the use of the kayak & dinghy goes above and beyond HIGHLY RECOMMEND !
