Hine’s place was perfect for us to explore the eastern Bay of Plenty. Easy drives to Whakatāne, Ohope Beach, and up the east cape meant there was plenty to do. Set in a rural area overlooking Ōpōtiki it was a lovely and tranquil place to stay. It gets great sun and the air is full of native birds sounds. There are great MTB trails nearby. The house is a cosy kiwi bach with all you need for a longer stay.
