SURFPAD Pataua North place of plentyRelax and enjoy the good vibe

SURFPAD is an Oasis enriched with a true Kiwi flavour.
Offers adventures that excites and delights its customers.
Mission; To provide a affordable quality Kiwi style holiday, in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.



Surfpad is about 30 paces from the surf beach, which flows into a beautiful estuary, which is great for the very young swimmers, also good to do some snorkelling if you wish.There is a foot bridge connecting North Pataua and South Pataua. A lot of holiday makers spend time on the bridge, fishing and often jumping it as well a very popular pass time at Pataua. There is a boat ramp for those who wish to bring a boat, and during the summer holidays there are fishing contests if that's what you are into.We also have surfboard hire . Nev and Di are both surf instructors and on request can do do surf lessons. We have paddle boards for hire which is a lot of fun in the estuary and would be happy to give you lessons if you need them . There is a shop that operates during the summer holidays, at the camp ground south side they have their own bakery and take aways, this is about 20 minutes walk over the bridge. There are heaps of things to do lots of coastal walks, surfing, swimming, fishing, tennis courts all close by, there is a table tennis table in the common room at the Surfpad, which is a lot of fun. If you need to go to town its a 40 minutes drive over sealed roads.

The best thing about staying at the Surfpad, is you can do all these things or just do nothing at all. If you are staying here out side of the summer holidays there are no shops open at Pataua North A new cafe called Tahi which is about 2 km on a flat road very walkable, which is open from the 27 th Dec / to late January,so you can enjoy a very nice coffee or brunch hours 7.30-3pm . Be sure you bring every thing you need for your stay. It is a 35 minute drive to Whangarei if you forget anything.

Special conditions smoking allowed out side and you must remove all cigarette butts. We are on water tanks so conserving water is important. We have under ground water for washing, rain water tank for drinking (filtered). For more personal help contact Di

Extras: Cleaning (Required, NZ$70.00per stay); Linen (included);

Awesome stay
We really enjoyed our time at Pataua North. Nev was great to chat with (Di had to travel so we didn’t get to know her as much). The beach and the Bay Area was unlike any place we have ever been, in a good way. Unfortunately for us we had a couple days of rain and Pataua North and South don’t have anything indoors to do. Our boys played a lot of ping pong and we did a day trip to Whangārei and the Kiwi North museum, which was great. This property is at the back of the house (we thought it was facing the beach) so you don’t have views from the garden area, but with a very short walk (steps away) we could drink our coffee and take in the scenic beauty. It is a special place and we really enjoyed the surf pad and the hosts.

A very special place
Pataua is such a special place, a real beauty. We arrived in the dark, Di and Nev left lights on for us and had even offered to grab us some supplies from town as there are no shops at Pataua. (Thank you) Next morning we woke up and saw the beach which is stunning. We were there to see friends and our kids all hung out together. Between the beach and the estuary we had plenty to do. It was nice to come back to surf pad to sleep in very comfy beds with the sound of the ocean each night. We loved our stay. Do and Nev were great hosts. Thank you.

We found the listing to be very deceptive
The listing was described as a house, in reality it was a flat underneath the owners house at the back of the property. There was no view of the ocean as the outdoor living area faced the road.The flat was quite dark but it was very clean and nicely decorated. The beach was beautiful

An idyllic setting next to the beach
This is a beautiful spot next to the sweeping surf beach of Pattaya North, and a few minutes walk to the estuary. The place is clean, well equipped, quiet and snug. The owners are on site and vey welcoming. We would definitely come back.
