Independent in Taipare Bay from NZ$313

"Really easy check-in due to the key-box. The house was perfect for our family of 5. Sara kept us well-informed before our arrival of possible effects from a storm-induced power-cut; power was, however, restored before our arrival. The facilities were great for us, as we enjoy cooking for ourselves. Having off-street parking provided us with peace of mind.On top of all this, Okiwi Bay is a really great location."

"Beautiful property, comfortable beds, lovely window seats, great outdoor deck with large table perfect for evening meals with fireplace to keep warm. Might want to adjust the listing as property is not actually waterfront. It’s about a 10 minute walk. Luckily we were able to put the kayaks in our large car, but others may want to bring bungee cords to make transport down to the water easier. An absolutely beautiful spot to stay. Secluded and lovely with great access to hikes and kayaking. Heaven on earth. "

"The house is huge with excellent facilities...especially the well equipped kitchen. The teenagers loved the pool table and table tennis. The views are gorgeous. I would highly recommend spending beach time at close by Momorangi Bay as its sandy access rather than mud flats. "

"Amazing. We go away every year for an annual trip and this was our favourite spot in the last 6 years. Beds are comfy, house is huge, seaviews from every bedroom, deck is great etc etc. Dishwasher and washing machine on holiday is pretty great as well. "

"This is a lovely home with a great set up. En suites in each bedroom along with a lovely view. This is a top notch stay home with everything you need for a relaxing stay. Cheers"

"Yes the kitchen was well very well equipped "

"Lovely place to stay. Amazing views."

"Awesome location, responsive host. Thanks!"

"Wow! What an amazing view from both inside and the deck, the private beach was fantastic. We had a great time and would stay there again. "
