About this property

Tropical Oasis - Modern, sunny, fully fenced holiday home with beautiful tropical gardens

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

Perfectly sited on a quiet cul-de-sac within a 5-10 minute drive to everything Mangawhai has to offer, this modern property boast fantastic indoor and outdoor living. The house is tastefully decorated and well-appointed but the jewel of this property is the tropical garden with unique outdoor entertaining spaces. The gardens give a sense of being on your own little tropical island and provide a tranquil oasis to relax in after a day at the beach or out on the water. There is also a heat pump now to keep things warm in winter.

At the front of the property the open plan living flows out onto a deck with a relaxing outlook to the Brynderwyn hills. At the rear, bifold windows and a single door off the kitchen open to another deck and barbecue area. This rear area also boasts an outdoor fire, water wall and reflection deck and there is an outdoor hot shower and also an outdoor bath now with plumbed hot water.

Perfect for two families with space to spread out and do your own thing and the section is fully fenced so you can relax in the security that any little ones cant wander. There is off-street parking for two cars and additional cars can park on the road directly outside the property.

Make this your next beach holiday destination, you wont be disappointed.



LINEN: Please note that other than pillows, duvets and duvet covers, linen is not included in the tariffs but can be rented for $25 per person, further details are provided in the 'Rooms and beds' section of the listing. If you wish to add linen, please add a note to your booking with what beds you wish to use so they can be made up. We have linen as an optional extra to make a more affordable holiday for those who wish to bring their own.

BOOKING PAYMENT: Although Bookabach/VRBO take your credit card details, all booking payments are made to Bach Stay NZ Limited who manage this property for the owners. Once your booking is approved, we will send you a payment email with a choice of credit card payment (a 3% surcharge applies) or bank transfer (no charges). Please note the amount stated as 'Deposit Paid at Property' on the Bookabach/VRBO quote is actually a refundable bond that will be collected as part of the accommodation payment, it is not collected at the property as the wording suggests.

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.

Rent towels?
Very nice house. Comfortable and well-stocked. Beautiful garden, well-screened from the suburban neighborhood. The idea of renting towels is absurd for the nightly cost. More ridiculous was that for 4 people, we got a total of 4 bath towels, 2(!) hand towels, 2 bath mats, no washcloths. The place was down-at-the heels (ripped curtains and throw pillows, sticking door, etc. A washer, but no dryer. No extra lightbulbs. It felt like the management was not very generous. The list of instructions was so unwelcoming—bold DO NOT do this and that. It was like military rules, not from people who were happy to have us

Mangawhai Escape
The property was good, but it would have been wonderful if the deck area had been covered to allow for sitting outside when it was raining. The kitchen space was modern. The house was lovely and clean. The check in person arrived quickly but didn't answer questions via text when we tried to contact them. Overall the space was great.

Perfect layout and gorgeous outdoors!
Great size and layout and such a bonus to have two bathrooms. The outdoors and tropical garden are stunning and we'll definitely try and get back when the weather is better in Spring/Summer (though it was lovely and warm and a relaxing Winter getaway).

Fun whanau stay
We had two families staying and there was plenty of space with open plan living making it really easy to watch the little ones. An easy drive to the surf beach, estuary, shops and adventure playground! Quiet neighbourhood and lovely gardens made it comfortable to be there in the afternoons while the little ones slept / rested We will definitely be back for another family holiday!
