Short Term Holiday Let Opportunity for Families or Groups Stone Throw to Brophy's Beach via a scenic walkway alongside the Tarapatiki Stream. This special property is available from 8 January 2024 through to 31 March 2024. Super Relaxing & Naturally Warm. The Beach Retreat House has everything. It’s also fun and bit quirky! SITUATION is blissful. A quiet hidden gem situated on the Tarapatiki stream with unobstructed rural views. Enjoy the bach’s own gardens and the one on the edge of the stream. Enjoy a stroll down the grassy reserve to a very safe swimming beach. Want a bit of surf then it’s just a 5 min drive to Wharekaho beach (take your boogie boards). All this serenity too much? Just 5 mins drive (25 mins walk along the beach) and you are in the hustle and bustle of the Whitianga town center. Missing your usual morning shot of coffee? During the week there is a fabulous coffee cart just a stroll away on the beach. If the tides right you could kayak down the stream for your coffee! AMENITIES. The Beach Retreat House is unique as it is great for extended family/friend options. Privacy ++ if you want two separable areas. (Bedroom/ living//bathroom/covered outdoor areas.) FRESCO exordinaire. A warm sunny north facing deck. Soak up the sun on the main deck which is large with a double set of very comfy outdoor settings. The deck is covered suitable for all weathers. Kids can play safely in lawn area off the deck as this area is fully fenced. For more robust activities there is a gate opens directly onto the reserve. Lots of evening games fun. This Bach is FULLY STOCKED inside and out. Kitchen jammed with everything you may need on a holiday. Outside there are 2 kayaks free to use (some life jackets provided but not all sizes). Plenty of outdoor/indoor toys, beach toys available for a variety of ages. If it’s a bit of a chilly night the Bach can warm you up quick with two outdoor wall heaters (one over dining area and the other the lounge) or set yourselves a lovely evening ambience. Tired from busy action-packed days or trying to settle the kids. Try the outdoor bath (has its own heating so you won’t run out of hot water). A fisherman in the family? Catch sprats in the stream out front or for those with a boat the Beach Retreat House can accommodate a medium sized boat on the section (back boat in) and there is a sand ramp 1 min away (free) or a concrete ramp in town (free). Shhhh -There’s also been some good fishing directly out off the beach. Please call Elaine Smith of Mercury Bay Property Management on 027 513 8780 to discuss your holiday needs.
