About the host
Hosted by Capt Cook
We love coming to our beach house where we can relax or actively enjoy days at the beach, badminton and other outdoor games on the back lawn. Our favourite day out is hard to name, with a ferry trip to Whitianga for brunch, a trip to Hahei and visit to Cathedral Cove, or a soak in your own self-made hot pool at Hot Water Beach, or a lovely bush walk up to Shakespeare Cliff Lookout where you get an incredible view over Mercury Bay and Cooks Beach and beyond. How can I choose?
Why they chose this property
Cooks Beach is so close to many Coromandel gems, the beach itself is divine , or you can choose a freshwater estuary swim. Jump into the water from the high rope if you dare. Whitianga is a 5 minute ferry trip across the channel and a 3 minute walk you are in Whitianga. Hahei & Hot Water Beach are only a 10 min drive away.
What makes this property unique
