About this property
2 Stanley · You little beauty - Wharewaka Beach Magic!
Modern and very sunny 2 bedroom cottage in the popular Wharewaka strip.
Are you visiting friends and family in the area over the summer but looking for your own space? The second bedroom is divided with a curtain and is the access to the bathroom so if 4 staying you all need to be close. Honestly 2 mins to the lake and Wharewaka reserve, with endless sun in this holiday neighborhood, it is the perfect place.
This home is one of two homes on a shared site but private and comfortable for all. PLEASE NOTE – This property is STRICTLY not suitable for parties, events, or loud groups.
Access to all places in the photos.
We like to give our guests their privacy but Kerry is available by phone or text to answer any questions and we are only ever 10-15 minutes drive away if needed in an emergency.
Rotorua is only one hours drive and Hawkes Bay within 1.5 hours drive for a day of sightseeing and for the active traveller the Ski field and Tongariro crossing is an 1.5 hours drive. The Glowworm Caves are also 2 hours drive and Hobbiton 1.5 hours making Taupo the heart of the North Island and the perfect place to stay and explore from.
