Simply brilliant
A charming house on a very spacious plot of land. Plenty of room for activities and very private. A lovely spa and outdoor fire pit perfect for the cool evenings. Top that off with a spectacular beach just over the dunes less than a 10 min walk away. Also close to waipu town centre and mcleods brewery. Highly recommend and would definitely stay again if in the area.

Lots of space. Great to have second lounge area for kids to hang out and beds for four kids in one room. Loved the spa. Few minutes drive to the cove - beach, dairy, cafe and restaurant. Comfy beds.

Perfect location - well equipped property
It was a clean and well-equipped property. The jacuzzi was a delight - sitting in the warmth and viewing a breathtaking night sky (we were blessed with 2 clear nights in a place with minimal light pollution). Close to all forms of water - beaches and estuary as well as a variety of restaurants and cafes in Waipu and Waipu Cove. The bed was extremely comfortable and the fans appreciated as well as the TV with a range of viewing when the weather wasn't great. I don't want to rave too much in case it becomes unavailable but a great location for a beach holiday!

Lovely Place to Get Away
My family of 4 (2 adults and 2 young kids) stayed here with another couple and we had such a nice time. The property was easily big enough for all of us, there are tonnes of beds and large living spaces. The kitchen is fantastic and had a huge range of basic spices etc as well as all the pots, pans, plates, you could need. We stayed during the floods and the property manager was in constant contact to make sure we were OK and had everything we needed. Would definitely stay again
