About this house rental

Onemana is a small beach resort with lots of bush, birds and secluded spots. Our Nahoon Bach (sleeps 7) was designed by owner Paul (wannabe architect) with a vision of it being a unique beach abode rather than a suburban home. The living area is a two story void surrounded by double story windows making it light and airy with beautiful bush and sea views. All windows can slide open on hot summer days giving it a "tent-like" feel. Its curved corrugated iron roof (inside and out - insulated) and structure is reminiscent of the iconic Kiwi barn. Oneama has a beautiful white sand surf beach - although sometimes the sea is more is like a peaceful lake. There are lots of great bush walks to remote neighbouring beaches. If you want a bit more action, Whangamata is only 10 minutes drive away. Other Coromandel attractions like Hot Water Beach and Cathedral Cove are an hour's drive away. Onemana has free tennis courts if you can drag yourself away from the deck where you could sit for hours watching the Tuis and enjoying their songs from the bottle brush and Kauri or admire the Kingfisher sitting in the Punga. At night you can hear the Morepork calling and the crashing of the surf (when it's up). It's an idyllic retreat from city life. In winter there's a roaring log fire to add to the ambience and comfort. The house has all the mod cons and is furnished in an eclectic mix of Kiwi and African design and art.
Smoking outside only.
Downstairs suitable for toddlers and wheelchairs.
Enclosed/gated deck safe for toddlers and young children.

Extras: Cleaning (Required, NZ$100 per stay)

Great communications with the property owner. This is a well presented bach with everything our family of 5 needed in a fab location - like you are living amongst the trees, with gorgeous birdlife and a short stroll through the reserve to the beach. We loved it.
6 / 10Average·Feb 2017
Beautiful house in beautiful quiet location. Loved the bush, beach and birdsong. It would have been really useful to know before we arrived that there is no wifi at all and no phone reception for spark mobile. Tech free isn't always an option! Also could do with some fans on the very hot upper level and night and some more comfortable beds...not the best combo for sleeping!
