We had the best time at Over The Dunes. My Dad (who recently died) actually sold this house to the current owners, so we have some really special memories there and quite a lot of our old stuff is there, so it was really nice to go back. It’s across from the beach, and close to everything you’d need, so it’s perfect. Old fashioned Kiwi style. Great for a really relaxing time.

'Over the Dunes' is a wonderful Kiwi bach to spend time in to recharge your batteries! It is just opposite the road from stunning Cooks Beach and only a short car ride to the passenger ferry that takes you across the channel to Whitianga (a trip that only takes a few minutes). The views from the top storey are stunning, and the sound of the waves on the beach truly sets the scene for a wonderful seaside escape. Not only that, but the bach is also very well-appointed - both upstairs and downstairs - Graham and Liz have thought of almost everything you might need during your time away! We will be back for sure!!
