    Breathtaking views of Opito Bay - Perfect family Beach house

    Our beach home is 2 levels with a wrap around deck at the top level with a beautiful view. A clean, airy, comfortable home with 3 bedrooms, bathroom and an extra outside hot water shower with a little tub the kids can have a bath or splash around in. Top deck is gated and safe for children to play and ride bikes and scooters that are available to use. There's a safety gate indoors at the top of the stairs to keep those little explorers safe. Access to the beach is just a short stroll down the driveway.

    One of the safest and unspoilt beaches on the Coromandel Peninsula, perfect for family getaways. An awesome place to stay with excellent views of the Bay, Mercury Islands and surrounds.

    Beautiful, safe and secluded haven for swimming, diving, snorkelling for paua, canoeing, fishing, boating, biking and bird life… whatever tickles your fancy! And even a stream to entertain the kids… not forgetting the swings not too far down the beach with beautiful Pohutukawa trees stretching onto the shore for welcomed shade...

    If you up to a challenge, you could climb the Opito Point Pa track up the mountain with access via a staircase-track at the east end of Opito beach, while taking in the magnificent views of the Mercury Islands and Opito Bay – beautiful white sandy beach typical of the Coromandel Peninsula. Or a lovely walk around the farmland will get you to neighbouring Crayfish Bay. Matapaua Bay is just a short drive away… otherwise can just chill out with that book you've been meaning to read.

    For days when you feel like heading out, there’s the lovely restaurant at the beginning of Black Jack Road (about 14 minutes to Kuaotunu), that has coffee, pizzas, burgers and chips, yummy ice-creams, etc, and if you run out of any beverages, there’s a licensed store available and just 30 minutes is the popular Whitianga hotspot.

    After soaking up the sun and frolicking in the waves, there is an outside hot water shower available to wash away the sand before going inside or just enjoy an outside shower if you fancy.

    Special Conditions:
    Sorry, no pets allowed and strictly NO smoking indoors!

    There are 2 kayaks available to use at the bottom deck with life jackets of varied sizes, 2 big bikes for the older 1s and a few smaller bikes in the shed. Also available are some Beach toys and Boogy/Body boards for added fun. An outdoor fridge is also available on the bottom deck to use for any bait or fish caught or to keep extra drinks cool. You will need to switch the fridge on on your arrival if not on already.
    You would need to bring along your own sheets, towels and food to enjoy your well-deserved break in this little slice of paradise. Duvets are provided. However, if you do need some towels, enquire before booking and the fee can be added. Please let it be known and it can be organised, no worries.

    If it feels like a bach and smells like a bach....
    This is a tired 1970/s (?) bach which is mediocre at best in every way except the view. Even the location is misleading - it is a couple of houses back from the beach and you look into the neoghbours back yards. It would be expensive at 1/4 the price we paid.

    Fantastic Spot
    We had a lovely week away here, such a fantastic location. House had everything we needed and was great for kids with body boards, kayaks and lots of games to play. Owners were very understanding of uncertainty around being able to get there under COVID restrictions. Thank you!
