The Cape View Pacific Ocean Experience

True experience seekers will love staying on the edge of the Pacific Ocean in a recently refurbished and fully insulated double glazed tiny home aka The Cape View Shed. Set in a quiet beachfront residential location exuding seaside charm with a magnificent view of Hawke Bay and an uninterrupted view of Cape Kidnappers.

Capture the sun and moon rising while relaxing in the cedar hot tub which is chlorine free and uses a spa treatment containing colloidal silver. On occasion witness a seal sunbathing or a pod of dolphins swimming out at sea.

The Cape View Shed is a compact yet well planned space with open plan living/sleeping and a separate bathroom with twin Italian basins, one for washing dishes and one for personal hygiene both with modern gooseneck taps. Suited for maximum of two guests. The accommodation provides a queen size bed and a small single divan bed. Kitchenette with microwave and fridge only. Smart TV. External caravan plug. Macrocarpa decking areas are for your sole use as is the Weba BBQ. You are welcome to use the fire pit also. Two bikes are available on request at time of booking to explore the coast via the cycle paths which you can access at your accommodation's drive entranceway.

Approximately 700 metres to Elephant Hill winery. Also very close to Clearview Winery. A two minute walk to the Brown Dog Coffee Cart, Four Square, Marion's Bar & Grill and Capeview Takeaways.

The accommodation has the Cape View Cottage located on site, being the owners private holiday home. When the cottage is in use the Cape View Shed is made unavailable on the website to ensure that when you book you will enjoy complete privacy with full use of the cottage outdoor areas, including the verandas to the seaside. Your privacy is our priority. The property is fully fenced and gated with off street parking.

While you stay visit the Gannet Sanctuary or play golf at Cape Kidnappers Golf Course. The fact the Cape View Shed is excitingly close to the Pacific Ocean, golf and the wineries is the very magic of the place.

You will hear the sea and at times the sea can be wild.
The outdoor areas are elevated above the stoney beach and are protected by a big sea wall which is a handy spot to fish from. There is access down to the waterfront which you can walk along in low tide.

This is a holiday experience out of the ordinary.

We loved it! You can relax listening to the waves break on the shore. The hot tub was great - a nice touch. Every detail has been taken care of at this VRBO. There is a take-out place just across the street - we had delicious fish and chips and there are several other items on their menu.

We had a very enjoyable stay. Watching the ocean waves right from the deck was a real treat for us. We enjoyed the hot tub and the bicycles. The place is small but equipped well enough for a couple to have a lovely time. The location is perfect. Check-in and communication were great. We highly recommend this little bungalow by the sea.

Jane was so friendly and approachable - really welcoming. The place was so small and cozy but had everything we needed. A really well thought out space. The spa just topped off a lovely weekend for us, and the wild weather of the ocean was so nice to watch from the warmth and comfort of the house! Highly recommend this spot, local shops walking distance for a good caffeine hit - best coffee cart I've seen in a long time!! Overall, water, sun, coffee, wine, great food, spa....made for a memorable weekend. I highly recommend.

Perfection!

We absolutely loved every second of our stay. Jane super was helpful and accommodating. The sound of the ocean, the hot tub, the bike rides, the fire pit, the beach walks. Our cycle the short distance (on the provided bikes!) to Hygge at Clifton Bay for brunch was a highlight.Thanks Jane for a wonderful weekend away!

See view sea view

Wanted quiet time with husband, sea view, with sound of waves in my ears as I feel asleep. And that's exactly what we got, with hot tub soak - bonus!Experienced 4 seasons during short stay but still had a lovely time. Just too cosy! A wee gem of a site. Long may you continue (waves so close you can touch!)

Charming and Cosy

The unit is warm, charming and cosy and just right for two people. Right on the ocean front, the crashing waves regale you throughout the day and night providing a relaxing vibe.We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the area itself has a certain ruggedness around it, keeping you in-tune with the ocean.

Great beach location

The Cape View was a very cute location. Unfortunately, the weather was not great for the three nights we stayed there (but that wasn’t the host’s doing!) so we were unable to make the most of the great outdoor spaces. Access to the hot tub and BBQ was greatly appreciated. Some hanger space would have been useful but we knew there was unlikely to be such space. Great location for what we had planned in the area and super quiet (when the waves weren’t splashing up!). Highly recommended.
