Treehouse - Whanarua Bay Cottages

Whanarua Bay Cottages are located on the Eastern Bay of Plenty side of the East Cape. We are about an hour's drive from Opotiki along State Highway 35, which is part of the spectacular Pacific Coast Highway.

The tree house as the name suggests is nestled amongst large native tree. With large grounds there’s plenty of room for the boat or for the kids to play around. Elevated above the ground there are views of the surrounding hills and the sea. Inside the two large bedrooms will sleep up to about six people quite comfortably. The beds will be made up with fresh linen when you arrive. The kitchen and lounge are open plan and the range slider leads out onto the deck. This place has everything you need all you have to bring is your food, clothes and of course your beach towel. Only minutes from the bay this cottage is a great base for your summer holidays.

Fishing trip
Great communication and good instructions on how to get to Whanarua Bay Cottages. The owners were great when we had to cancel our non-refundable payment due to bad fishing weather and let us re-book for the next week. There was plenty of room to park the truck and boat. The Manager was very friendly and helpful. Great place to stay.

Lovely area and old style property. Did a lot of day trips and it was a good base. The area is lush in the summer so take insect repellent.

True kiwi batch in a hideaway location, bit of a hill to get down to the water but very much worth the walk. Bach was absolutely spottless clean. I could back a 6.2 meter boat into the section but you would struggle if it was bigger. It's about 15min drive to Waihau Bay ramp which was no problem. Really enjoyed the wild life in the area and we would stay again in a heartbeat, thanks Margaret.
