We had a fantastic short holiday here with our two small children. They loved playing down at the estuary beach which was a 5 minute walk away and perfect for them with calm shallow water. The ocean beach was only 10 min walk. Such a peaceful location with fantastic views, a perfect place to sit and listen to the birds around the house and watch the ever changing view / sunset / stars. A cafe and restaurant are just 5 min walk away and Tairua shops 5 min drive. The house was well equipped and perfect to relax for a few days and to explore the coromandel coast (20min drive to Hot Water Beach).
