Hosts on the Coast Sandy Shores

Sandy Shores is a classic Kiwi bach located in Whangamata. Super close to the stunning ocean beach and a short walk to the estuary waters.
The three-bedroom beach house (2 bedrooms + sleep-out) has old-style charm and comfort. Bedroom one has a queen bed, bedroom two has a single bed and a trundle bed, while the sleepout has a double down single up bunk bed and a single bed.
It is well equipped and comfortable with a new kitchen (with all new appliances), dishwasher, heat pump, two new fridge freezers and new thermal blinds.
The living area is comfortable and leads out onto the front deck, which has a glimpse of the water, a relaxing spot for your morning cuppa, while the southern deck gets the afternoon sun and is a great spot to enjoy evening cocktails.
There is a shower room and a separate toilet, while the laundry has a washing machine and a vanity.
There is a grassy area for the kids to play on and an outdoor shower for rinsing off after a day at the beach.
The large front verge is great for visitor parking, and there is room for car & boat parking on the section.
The Estuary Store is just a short stroll away for those summer ice creams or fish and chips. It also has barista coffee, as well as bikes, kayaks, paddle boards and fishing gear to hire.
The bach is approx 1.3 km to the surf club.

Please note there is no WIFI.
Please note the property is not fenced.

Whangamata is about an hour and a half from Auckland, Hamilton or Tauranga and is a popular coastal town with a fantastic surf and swimming beach. Take a kayak tour to Donut Island or take a trip or hike to Wentworth Falls. There are plenty of shops and cafes in the town, or take a drive out to Opoutere Beach and check out the Coastal Bird Reserve, or grab your paddleboard and head to the estuary where the waters are a bit calmer. Let's not forget that Whangamata is home to the famous Beach Hop held every March for a week, where vintage cars, caravans and motorbikes from all around NZ are showcased. Vintage markets are operating, and it's a family-friendly party atmosphere not to be missed!
