About this property

Aotea Harbour bach, stunning views of the harbour

Aotea Harbour is on the West Coast, South of Raglan and a fifteen minutes drive to Kawhia and Hotwater beach (Te Puia Springs), just over an hour from Hamilton. The bach is located in Aotea Village right on the waterfront only 20 metres to the water with stunning panoramic views of the harbour and across the water are spectacular sand dunes and reserve. An ideal place for a lovely quiet getaway where you can go for long walks along the beach out to the heads, or trek further along Ocean Beach and dig your own hot pool in the sand at low tide. Bring your boat and explore the harbour or fish to your hearts content or set a flounder net. Horse treks are available locally. Great winter retreat or summer family beach holiday, with safe swimming or have a go at catching a kingfish from the beach. This three bedroom bach has most modern facilities and appliances.

Special conditions:
No Pets allowed

NOTE: Under Kiwi bach tradition you are expected to: Clean the house and do the dishes before you leave; Bring your own linen (towels/sheets/tea towels); take your own rubbish when you leave Thanks

Getaway Bach on the Bay
Comfortable old style bach with mostly upgraded conveniences. Located on the edge of the village and on the water"s edge, it's a great place to unwind. Would definitely stay again.

Fantastic Family Getaway
What a fantastic spot for a family holiday. Sittin on the front deck we had amazing views of the beach right across the quiet no exit road. House had everything we needed and was clean and tidy. The layout of the bedrooms and front lounge area was perfect for relaxing. Plenty of parking. Owners communication was fast pleasant and helpful. Would definitely come back. Many thanks for making our family Christmas special.
