About this property

Pipi Palace Beach House

Have fun with the whole family at this classic Kiwi Bach with great coastal vibes!
Just a 3 minute drive to Ruakaka Surf Beach or a 4 minute walk to the Ruakaka River/Estuary.
A perfect spot for a couple, multi generational family stays, a group of friends or work accommodation.

The quintessential Kiwi Bach - a perfect place to base yourself for some R&R whether you're a couple, a family, or more than one family. Even better - bring the grandparents for extra babysitting duties! They'd have their own reasonably private space in Bedroom 04!
If you're in the area for work, this would also be a perfect place to base yourself.

The entire home is your own. The section is flat and fully fenced. There is no garage parking, but driveway room for 2-3 cars and a boat plus on road parking as well.

The home is set up for self check-in, and we will always be available if you need us. We live close by and find it is usually best communicating through the Airbnb app or via text messages.

Discover Ruakaka Beach—an idyllic, laid-back coastal town just an easy 1 hour and 30 minutes' drive north from Auckland.

With kilometers of sandy beach right at your doorstep, you'll be able to enjoy surfing and/or swimming (there's a patrolled surf club at the beach), walking around the area, or as far as you like along the beach. A great base to go fishing from, with excellent launching facitilities at Marsden Cove. Or just sit back and relax at your accommodation with a nice glass of something refreshing!

Waipu Golf Course is very close, as is the Ruakaka Race Track. Waipu is great for a visit, with excellent eating out options, and Waipu Cove/Langs Beach for another beach option and great walking. These will all be listed in the Digital Guidebook we send you when you book.

Your best option for transport here is to have or hire your own car. Ruakaka Beach and the Bach Cafe are within walking distance, but if you'd like to explore the area further you will need a vehicle as there is no public transport.
