This is a unique property on 2 beautiful acres of prime beachfront land - located on the very safe (with shade) Okupu Beach, Blind Bay, Great Barrier Island. You will be hard pressed to find a similar beach location with views to die for and fabulous wildlife!
There are 2 small cabins, one has a kitchenette/living area and sleeping loft (one double and one single matress up small ladder into the loft).The other (sleepout) has a comfy king size bed. The kitchenette has a double gas burner, and there is a small gas fridge. A bbq is available on request, as are 2 kayaks! There is an enclosed outdoor shower and clean long drop. This is a rustic set up, but clean and tidy and functional. I spent many summers at The Mermaid Shack before I bought the property next door!
I can also assist in organising requested car hire, and activities -(seasonal), that include amongst other things, fishing/diving, and sailing day trips.
