About this property

Tay St Beach Vibes house, 5-min stroll to beach

Welcome to our light, modern, comfortable home with an outdoor seating area and fully fenced backyard. All the modern conveniences are here and such a great location to both beaches - surf and harbour, shops, golf courses, hot pools, cafes and restaurants. This is the perfect location for a family holiday - summer or escaping winter.
The beautiful sandy beach of Mount Maunganui is a 5 minute stroll away. Check out the famous surf, enjoy a relaxing beach walk, walk around and/or up the Mount (Mauao) or explore the shops, cafes and bars.
The sports ground "Blake Park" is located at the end of the street, so very close if you have sports events in the area. So, our beach house is waiting for you to make memories at.

Perfect beach stay
We had a few needs for our stay (e.g. fully fenced with two young children, no stairs, not on busy road, etc). Helen’s house ticked all the boxes and was very conveniently located for us to enjoy all Mount Maunganui and surrounds has to offer. The property was very neatly presented and Helen responded quickly when we needed to get in touch. Would absolutely recommend for anyone wanting a relaxing family holiday in Mount Maunganui. Thank you, Helen!

Spacious, quiet, clean, and comfy near the beach
Helen was a great host. She responded right away and gave clear instructions for getting into the property. The house met all our needs, was whisper quiet, and the beds were amazingly comfortable. The water pressure in the showers was great. The sofas were all lazy boy style. The house is located 2 blocks from the beach, which has a couple of good cafes and a patrolled beach with changing facilities. It's not right in the central area, however it's only about a 30 min walk to the Mount. There are shops and cafes on the main road, about a 5-10min walk. The town has loads of scooters around and the house had 1 bike, though we didn't use it.

Exceptional Accimmodation
The property was as described on the Stayz website, but was much higher quality than we anticipated. The host was wonderful with communication and the house was beautifully appointed. We didn't get to utilise the lovely outdoors areas as the weather was not condusive to this, but it did not deter us from enjoying every comfort the house provided.

We love staying at the Tay Street Beach Vibes house. It is so close to the beach, downtown Mount and Blake park. The Mount is a beautiful place I would recommend everyone visit and the house was very cosy, clean and well equipped. Highly recommend and hope to book it again ourselves one day.

Aloha Maunganui!
This was a tremendous stay in Maunganui! Everything the property owners promised were available and the house was very clean and well maintained. From the carpeted garage to the air conditioners in each living space, the house was comfortable as advertised. We also enjoyed the outdoor space and had the chance to use the gas grill which made a great meal! The location was ideal, just off the main streets and truly a 5-minute walk from the beach. Helen and Bryan communicated so well prior, during, and even after our stay to make sure our stay went smoothly. We all recommended this beautiful and well located property for a stay to anyone considering the Maunganui/Tauranga area for your next magical visit to Aotearoa!Mahalo for the great stay!

Satisfaction Guaranteed
This House is very nice, modern, clean and comfortable. The location is a 5 min walk to the Beach and very popular Tay St Coffee Shop. This beautiful house exceeded our expectations. We will definitely book it again and recommend it to our friends and family. One very small correction that could help is the VRBO location which calls the house TAY STREET BEACH VIBE when in fact it's on Valley Rd.

About the host

Host profile image
We have a big family and love spending time together. The beach is our favourite place, as we both love swimming, beach walks, nature, relaxing, biking and food.

Why they chose this property

We love Mount Maunganui and have been visiting family here for over 20 years. The surf and the walks are awesome!

What makes this property unique

A 5-minute stroll to Tay St beach and cafe is our highlight!
There are so many beautiful walks and the views around the Mount and Pilot Bay are just gorgeous. Being close to shops and restaurants is an added attraction.
