About this property

Modern holiday home with stunning views, a short walk to surf and sand

Please note for New Years bookings you must ENQUIRE first before booking as we have different requirements for this period.

Nestled along the serene coastline of Mangawhai Heads, this upscale beach home offers panoramic ocean views, lovingly curated interiors featuring modern decor and floor to ceiling windows that flood the space with natural light. The generous living spaces and outdoor lounges create a haven for relaxation and enjoyment.

A two minute stroll and your toes are in the sand at either the Surf Beach or Estuary. Enjoy a Barbecue on the deck after a day at the beach watching the waves break and the colours change in the sky over the sand dunes unique to this magical place.

The entry level of the home boasts 3 bedrooms; two with Queen beds, the third is a children’s room with bunk beds and a cot, a comfortable living room with a 65” Smart TV, kitchenette and dining space, indoor laundry and bathroom. Upstairs you will find the Master bedroom with en suite, well appointed kitchen and main dining area, as well as the warm and inviting living room which flows onto the outdoor dining and lounge area. Heat Pump’s on both levels, ensure year round comfort, while heated tile floors in both bathrooms provide a touch of luxury and warmth.

There is a portacot, highchair and baby bath for those with little ones.

NOTES:

1. There is parking for 2 cars beside the house (3 at a push with one across the front of the garage) and it is not suitable for trailers or boats.

2. The maximum number of adults the house accommodates is 6, the bunks are for children only.

LINEN: For this property all linen (sheets, pillowcases, towels, hand towels, bath mats and tea towels) is included as part of the Cleaning Fee. Just bring your beach towels

Mangawhai is the perfect summer holiday destination or coastal retreat. With its beautiful swimming and surf beaches and abundant marine life, Mangawhai is a popular spot for sailing, fishing, surfing, diving and summer family fun. The clear waters of the estuary provide safe family swimming, and the secluded white sand beaches of Te Arai and Pakiri are a short drive away.

Enjoy the vibrant art and cafe scene, local farmers market and the famous Bennetts Chocolate Shop. Soak up the natural beauty of this slice of coastal paradise, beachcombing, bush walking or just relaxing in a comfy chair with a glass of something cool.

Prime location in magical Mangawhai!

Beautiful property, super close to the beach, clean and tidy, amazing view! Loved our stay here for a few days in the school holidays. Would be the perfect place to say in summer, as it is a very short, easy walk to the beach. Easy process, very friendly property manager. Would love to come back again soon!

Home with a view

Well located within walking distance to the beach and great views from each level plus 2 of the bedrooms. Huge decks and a substantal barbacue. Village only 5 mins away in the car for supplies if required. There is quite a few stairs to the front foor and again some more from the 2nd floor to the first. Great set up with tv and music if looking to chill. The property manager was very accommodating and prompt with any questions. Highly recommened!

Dad's 60th weekend

Perfect house for a family weekend, split levels means there is lots of room to spread out (and wee ones to nap away from main living areas), great facilities - everything we needed and amazing views. Hired the linen - towels were a bit threadbare and we only had 2 tea towels so had to use the washer/dryer to refresh them all a couple of times.

Perfect Two Family Getaway

We really enjoyed our stay at The Beach Casa - even with terrible weather the view was amazing and still made for a relaxing time. Wonderful set up for a two families. There is the master upstairs with ensuite along with kitchen, dining and living. The lower level has two bedrooms, kitchenette, dining and living with another bathroom and laundry. Well decorated and although not used this time, will set up and lots of storage if staying longer to make for a comfortable storage. As we had a baby with us, we were highly impressed with the cot and change table. Easy and friendly communication

Sun, fun, spacious, light and breezy.....

Gorgeous property with great indoor - outdoor flow and entertaining areas to choose from! Short stroll to the beach, fantastic views from the deck and having two kitchen areas was fantastic. Property is in beautifully clean and tidy. Owner is a dream to work with and pre-arrival information and details are brilliant. Will be returning for the next trip!

Fantastic location and a lovely house. It was perfect and an easy short walk to the beach

We loved it!! The only thing I would say is that it would be super handy to have basic condiments like salt and pepper and a second gas bottle as it was empty otherwise great. Thank you

Fabulous house, great location

Went here on a girls' weekend away. Perfect for a relaxing weekend. The house is stunning - modern and sparkling clean, kitted out with everything you'd need for a holiday and more (we haven't stayed at many baches with smart tvs or decent stereos before - perfect for rainy weather!). There are beautiful views of the water, the beach is only a short walk away, and it's only a short drive from the village. Responsive and welcoming property management team. The only thing that stopped us giving this 5 stars is the access (which we'd been notified about before), with a narrow turn at the top of the driveway making it difficult to get to the house, particularly in the dark. But a small price to pay for such a wonderful house. We would definitely go back for another girls' weekend.
