About this property

Ultimate Family Retreat. Central Mount, 400m to Beach with pool.

Located in the heart of Mount Maunganui and only footsteps to the golden sandy beach, this beautifully renovated, stunning family home is perfect for sitting back , relaxing and enjoying everything the Mount has to offer.

A short stroll will take you to the award winning Tay Street Cafe . Several more restaurants/cafes and the supermarket are all within easy walking distance. And when you tire of swimming and eating, relax on the sun drenched North facing deck, sip on a wine and watch the kids playing on the lawn or on the large playing field across the road. In the evenings enjoy a BBQ with friends and family in the brand new architecturally designed outdoor room, next to the fully fenced stunning pool.

This modern house is furnished to a high-standard, with all the mod cons you don't want to miss when you are on holiday! Teenagers and young children will enjoy the large downstairs room with TV, games and Xbox.

And if all that's not enough there's the beautiful boutiques and shops in the Mount Village only 15 minutes walk away, the skate park just around the corner and golf clubs mere minutes drive... something for everyone!

PLEASE NOTE: Since photos were taken we now have a large covered outdoor entertaining area with TV and heater, heated pool and modern new kitchen with all mod cons! Beds are now 1 x Super King, and 2 x Queen upstairs. Downstairs is now one queen bed and one double bed. Photos to come!!

Special conditions:
No teenage groups or large party groups. Smoking allowed outside only and pets allowed with prior approval. Families preferred. Bond required.

Extras: Cleaning (Required, NZ$120.00 per stay); Linen (included);
Note: This is our family home so for shorter stays the kids may leave their clothes/toys in the drawers but there are plenty of shelves and hanging in the built in wardrobes.

48 Orkney Road - Brilliant Beach Stay
Our stay at 48 Orkney Road was simply amazing! The house is in great proximity of the beach, down town and New World. It is a quiet spot. Worked really well for two families with kids in tow. The our door areas are brilliant. Can be in sun or as sheltered as you want! Great modern kitchen and bathrooms. House really well equipped. The owners are awesome to deal with and nothing was ever a problem! Definitely recommend and would happily stay again!

Another Fabulous Holiday!
We had another absolutely wonderful holiday in this beautiful home! Thank you so much for sharing your fantastic home with us. We were made to feel extremely welcome. Kelly and Simon were great with their communication, they were very generous in the time they allowed us to stay and even in popping some groceries and wine in the fridge -thank you! Their home is very tastefully decorated. We felt as if we were at home even though we were on holiday and were very happy to relax at the property when the weather was a bit wet. Thank you so much to the family for sharing your bit of paradise with us.

Average with a good location
The location of the property was great with being close to the beach and local cafe. Great layout and flow for families staying and well set up for families. Will be even better when the outdoor area is finished. The cleanliness was disappointing, cat hair everywhere, lawns not mowed and it needs an overall good clean. No access to storage in the garage which was disappointing as we had bikes, surf boards and paddle boards etc so it made it difficult. Water pressure was pretty poor. Owners were lovely and great to deal with and really accommodating.
