Otaki Beach House | Peaceful cottage beside the Waitohu Stream

3 Bedroom House in Otaki Beach

Comfortable modern cottage in a sheltered garden with its own streamfront. In a quiet suburban setting, 10 minutes walk to Otaki Beach, our bach has generous outdoor living areas looking over the Waitohu Stream and onto a reserve. We chose it as our retreat because it is warm, private and sheltered from coastal winds, while still within the sound of the sea. For winter nights there's a woodburner and firewood. It's casual but tidy, fully furnished, and equipped as we would hope to find a bach we rent.
From the bach you'll be able to visit Otaki's outlet stores, explore the Tararuas, or take the rowboat for a lazy row down the stream to the beautiful, wide north end of Otaki Beach.
Special conditions:
Most suited to a couple or small family (without toddlers, because of the stream), but additional guests can be catered for at $20 per person.
NOTE: Under Kiwi bach tradition you are expected to: Clean the house and do the dishes before you leave; Bring your own linen (towels/sheets/tea towels);

This 3 Bedrooms House provides accommodation with View, Ocean View, Entertainment, for your convenience. This House features many amenities for guests who want to stay for a few days, a weekend or probably a longer vacation with family, friends or group. The rental House has 3 Bedrooms and 1 Bathroom to make you feel right at home.

Check to see if this House has the amenities you need and a location that makes this a great choice to stay in Otaki Beach. Enjoy your stay in Otaki Beach at this House.

Summary: The property was just what we needed while in Otaki doing a national event. Fire was great for this time of year. Communication, access and kitchen inventory was all good as well. Very peaceful spot surrounded in established greenery.Thanks,
