A great place to stay, unique in design, now upgraded with many new conveniences. The location is ideal, close to the beach and Oakura, yet peaceful, quiet and away from the crowds. Beautiful views of the ocean and the mountain. Hosts were excellent, friendly and helpful.One of the absolute top finds in Taranaki, after having experienced many locations on the region. Would easily recommend booking here.

We had the most wonderful, much-needed break here, so peaceful and relaxing. The property had everything we needed and more, and it was perfectly located just up the road from the beach and not too far from New Plymouth township.It was an ideal spot for our grumpy fur baby who had a sore leg, safe, secure, and perfect for her to rest comfortably. Mike was super friendly and helpful throughout our stay. We’ll definitely be back again.

Totally lovely stay

A gorgeous place tastefully decorated in a beautiful location with friendly and helpful hosts. A real joy to stay and made so welcome and lovely horses and Max (their dog) was really good with our dogs. Really recommend Saltwater Stables and look forward to a return visit one day. Thank you Mike and Ingrid.

Wonderful retreat with great views

Very welcoming host, beautiful accommodation cleverly designed for privacy and views. No traffic noise at all, but plenty of birds (including ruru at night)! Freshly ground coffee was waiting for us on arrival, and the kitchen was equipped with everything we needed for our brief stay. We'd love to come back and stay longer, and explore more.

Weekend away in Oakura

Did not know what to expect from Taranaki, but, upon arriving, it was impossible not to unwind. The scenery from the bach is awesome, sea, mountain and farmland. The hosts were great, and able to advise places to visit nearby and were kind enough to lend us some paddling gear for the river at the beach to play around in. Mike the host was a very interesting fellow who offered me the most wonderful advice on life, truly inspirational. The accommodation was very clean and well stocked with everything we needed. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

5 stars

Even though we didn’t get to stay the full 2 nights, as we had to go back home for sick kids, we enjoyed our night, was peaceful and beautiful. We didn’t get to meet Mike, but Ingrid you were so lovely to meet and loved our little goodies! Really appreciate everything! We hope to see you both in the near future!

A piece of heaven on earth

Immaculate set up for adventure and relaxation. Accommodation was squeaky clean and comfortable. Surrounds painfully beautiful - ocean and undulating hills on one side and lush green mountains on the other side. Morning coffee on the deck sets you up for the day. Comfortable beds, luxurious bedding. Loved using eco friendly products in the kitchen and the bathroom. Mike made us feel welcome, was very attentive and went out of his way to explain, advice and help out. We would love to come again!

Lovely farm stay

We spent 2 nights in this amazing farm house. We really enjoyed staying here despite of the gloomy weather. The view is just spectacular- you have both worlds, 1 with the ocean and the other side with the mountain. Our dog Yumi loves the big space playing with her friend dog Max and with the horses, cow and chicken. The house is very clean and spacious and has a warm character to it. It is a walking distance to the beach. I really like it even if it's a 20 minute drive from New Plymouth coz its kind of in between other attractions and near the national park. Mike is a great host and very friendly. We simply love staying at the Saltwater stables and will definitely come back and refer this to family and friends.
