About this apartment rental

Ideal for a relaxing getaway for one or a couple and tucked away in a quiet cul-de-sac this open plan studio is private, well equipped, and comfortable. Large bi-fold doors open onto a restful garden with places to sit in sun or shade. The outlook is to the expansive park and bush-clad Bluff hill behind. Only a few minutes walk to our stunning beach with safe swimming in the inviting, crystal clear water.

Great little kitchenette with a fridge/freezer, dishwasher, bench top oven, microwave, plug-in elements, and electric frying pan, suitable for preparing simple meals. An electric barbecue is also supplied for cooking outdoors.

Roomy, airy space, presented in sparkling clean order, with a comfy queen-sized bed, with fresh linen, comfy chairs, and dining table. Large, soft bath towels are supplied, with a clean set supplied each second day.

Matarangi beach is stunning with white silky sand and safe swimming. With tennis courts, a handy supermarket and other shops, an 18 hole golf course, and cafe, Matarangi is centrally located for easy drives to many of the Coromandel peninsula's best attractions. Local walks abound with magnificent views of beaches and expansive landscapes.

Iconic Kuaotunu is only 5 mins drive featuring Luke's kitchen and cafe, and further on, the stunning beaches of Otama and Opito bay.

Whitianga is just 20 minutes away with The Lost Spring hot pools and restaurants, boat hire, tours, kayaking, many dining options, lovely shops, supermarkets, and art galleries. From here you can easily drive or take a boat ride to Cathedral Cove, Hahei and Hot Water Beach.

Coromandel town is also only a 20 minute drive and features Driving Creek Railway (12 gauge train ride with a fabulous story of how it came to be, and amazing views from the top). Loads of locally produced artworks on sale at many galleries, a supermarket, and stunning scenery.

New Chum beach is easily accessed from Whangapoua beach which is a 15 minute drive away. Visitors then cross a stream, walk round the shore and over a small headland to this remote beach with Nikau forest right down to the sand.

Very clean and cozy cabin, and Sandra was very welcoming and happy to suggest local walks when we weren't sure which one to pick. Highly recommend!

Sandra was excellent to communicate with with quick response time. She was flexible regarding check in/out due to a bit of a weather bomb at the time and very welcoming on arrival. Wifi patchy but great location
6 / 10Average·Jun 2021
The property is well located in a pretty little township close to a lovely beach. Mid-winter was probably not the best time to visit. In summer, one wall can be completely opened up to the garden. The bed was certainly very comfortable but the 'studio' is cramped and the facilities, particularly for food preparation, were below our expectations.
