A wonderful place for a beach holiday!

Great big house, close to the beach!

Was a great stay - the house was bigger than anticipated which fitted two families with kids really well. Street was nice & quiet & only a short walk to beach, dairy & playground. I recommend to bring rubbish bags, paper towels & toiletries with you. Otherwise everything else is catered for.

A few days in Whangapoua.

We all enjoyed staying in the very comfortable and spacious house. It is a stylish large open plan house which has been well designed, perfect for a family stay. The house did get pretty hot and took a while to cool down, also the lack of wifi caused a melt down with younger daughter. Whangapoua though is a beautiful place in the world with amazing beaches and views.

Stunning Summer 22

We had a wonderful stay at this property, loads of space, comfy beds, quality appliances and amenities. Easy walk to all the great swimming spots and the all important dairy store. You can park up the vehicle, you won't need it unless you want to pop over to Coromandel town or down to Whitianga. But with the twice a day availability of a online supermarket delivery, why would you need to go anywhere.

Family of the brides accomodation

The property and owners were fabulous. No unwelcome surprises at all, on the contrary. The property had an ample kitchen facility which was hugely important having a big family staying and also having to feed the extended family the night after the big wedding. A simple relaxed dinner for 20 and we all fitted on the large deck perfectly. Thankyou

So impressed!!

We couldn't be happier with our stay at the BEEZKNEEZ, upon arriving we were so pleasantly surprised that the photos just do not do it justice (my one bit of feedback to the owner 'get some better photos done') . The house has everything you could need and more, almost to the point that having some bad weather wouldn't be the worst thing as you could make the most of the house. Wel be back for sure, love Whangapoua! Cheers

Good size house in lovely location

The house has a good layout with plenty of space and is well equipped to cater for a family. The general store supplies most items, nice cabinet food and good coffee. The heatpump/aircon unit and ceiling fans need a clean and some general maintenance, therefore we weren't as able to keep the house as cool as we would have liked. Other than that we had a pleasant stay.

About the host

Host profile image
We fell in love with our place whilst in a bookabach property behind it. We love the outdoors and especially the beach. We are living in Auckland and try to get down to the BeezKneez as often as we can during the quiet months.

Why they chose this property

This house just had it all. We love the deck space and the large open area inside. We are busy working on the garden to make the place somewhere to catch up on some rest and relaxation at the end of a long year, hard week, long hike lol
The Tuatua's are plentiful and delicious. Whangapoua has it all.

What makes this property unique

Perfect for families. Close to the beach. Large living and entertaining areas
