The Kereru's Nest. Overlooking the wonderful Tauranga Bay beach

Overlooking one of New Zealand's Top Ten beaches with stunning views this self contained luxury apartment has the most superb private position. You can hear the magic of the waves and wake up to the very best whispers of New Zealand. And the air…. so clean and pure.
The Kereru's Nest has an incredible beach and sea vista. You won't want to ever leave the private sun terrace in a sheltered garden overlooking the ocean and surrounded by pristine native bush. Enjoy the stimulating drive as it rises deep into the 17 acre property and amongst the mature natives some of the Norths most incredible bird life cheering you on.
This secret corner of New Zealand is by passed by all but the most discerning as they rush past to nearby Mangonui, and the delights of Cable Bay and Doubtless Bay. But, for a moment, you have paused in paradise…enjoy!
Feeling active, (maybe later), try a visit to the beautiful Whangaroa Harbour, so close, and climb the spectacular St Pauls. “A Singular and Beautifully Romantic Place”
Or take one of our sea kayaks and visit the spectacular Hole in the wall

Our best getaway this year!
It was the most ideal spot for some peace and quiet away from the hustle and bustle of the city - we swam, spa-ed, walked, cooked, ate, and talked daily. Just the “fill up” we needed. Fay was wonderful to deal with and we thoroughly recommend this property. We’ll be back!

Great short break
Great place to base from with great views and facilities. Weather was absolute rubbish but made better with drinks and hot tub! If the weather played ball would have been perfect. Good hosts, good facilities and stunning views...don't be alarmed by the steep drive to the house...well worth it.
