Fully equipped with all the modern conveniences, books, games and puzzles.

Directly over road from beach. Accommodated 8 adults with extra accommodations above garage. Well equipped. Great summer stay, but some may find house a little cool in winter.

Beautiful stay at Opito Bay
Perfect location. Helpful owner. Beautiful view. The photo does not do it justice. Great shower and comfortable bed. Accommodation was shabbier than expected (with previous? water damage underneath uneven kitchen floor and shower tray and we initially wondered whether that had happened just prior to our arrival but were assured by the owner on enquiry that it was pre-existing and reinforced and safe). This did not dampen the enjoyment of our stay. Opito Bay is a true treasure.
