We manage the home for the owners. It is set up for self check-in, and we will always be available if you need us. We find it is usually best communicating through the booking app or via text messages.
We strive to ensure you have everything you need in order to have a comfortable, relaxing and carefree stay. We are here to answer questions and assist in any way we can, and are always happy to help
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.
PROFESSIONAL MANAGEMENT: This home is professionally managed by ShortStays Northland. We are there to support your stay and make it as seamless and comfortable as possible, starting with an easy self-check-in process.
PET & HOUSE RUES: Well-behaved dogs are welcome at this property.
Please note that an extra pet cleaning fee applies, and you must register your pet or pets when making your booking.
Here is what we ask during your stay:
- Furniture: No dogs on furniture or beds, please.
- Cleaning: Always clean up after your pet, both inside and out on the lawn.
- Unattended Pets: Dogs should not be left alone in the property unless they are fully crate trained.
- Supplies: Please bring your own pet bedding, food/water bowls, and any extras they need to feel comfortable.
We`re excited to help your whole family, four-legged members included, enjoy a relaxed and respectful stay by the beach!
LINEN & SUPPLIES: We provide all bed linen, towels, and basic essentials to ensure a comfortable arrival. Just bring your own beach towels.
QUIET RESIDENTIAL AREA: This is a peaceful neighborhood and strictly NOT a party house. We appreciate your help in respecting our neighbours by keeping noise levels low, especially in the evenings.
