Sandy Paws – Your Private, Pet-Friendly Retreat in Whitianga Sandy Paws is a delightful two-bedroom, one-bathroom cottage tucked away at the back of the section, offering privacy and a relaxed holiday vibe. Perfectly positioned close to town, the beach, and The Lost Springs, this cosy little bach is a fantastic spot for couples, friends, or small families — and yes, it’s pet-friendly! Both bedrooms feature comfortable queen beds, while the bathroom includes a shower and toilet. The lounge is warm and inviting, with a comfy couch and flatscreen TV. French doors open to a sunny patio area, extending your living space outdoors. The kitchen is well-equipped with everything you need to cook up your holiday favourites, including a gas cooktop. The breakfast bar doubles as a handy dining or workspace. Outside, you’ll find a covered deck complete with a BBQ, outdoor couches, and a bar leaner — the perfect place to kick back on lazy summer days. There’s also an outdoor dining table for meals al fresco, and when evening falls, twinkling festoon lights make it a magical spot for a drink under the stars. The spacious lawn is ideal for letting your four-legged friend run around, and there’s parking for a small boat — so why not make the most of Mercury Bay and head out for a fish?
