We had a fantastic few nights in Whangamata on Tuck Street. The house was roomy, clean and had everything we needed. We appreciated all the extras (plenty of washing powder, teatowels, great cooking facilities including a BBQ and a green egg). Highlight for the kids was the spa and outdoor fire to toast marshmallows. Beds comfy and house warm. We will be back!

Very nice stay super close to the beach

We were four adults with two kids and had a great time. There was enough space to give everyone some privacy and the house provided us with everything we needed for a five day stay.

Friends & Family Getaway

Communication with Sean was great, house was perfect for our two family getaway. Location was so handy to town and the beaches. Easily walkable with littlies. Sean couldn't have been more helpful and we really appreciated his accommodation of us with an early check in with three toddlers when we arrived early from out of town.

Whangamata Tuck Road

This beach house is fantastic! As a long term visitor of Whangamata I can vouch for this being the perfect spot! Walking distance to the shops, beach, wharf and harbour. The house itself has everything you could want and more and is a great layout so even with 3 small families we weren't living on top of each other. A fantastic holiday thanks Sean!

Fantastic house for big family

We travelled with two children (6 & 9) and six adults. The property fitted us all in really well. We spent a lot of time in the outdoor living space, the kids enjoyed the spa and the outdoor shower. We didn’t use the Weber BBQ but it looked to be a good size. No microwave wasn’t a problem. Beds were comfy, shower had good pressure. Big bath downstairs was a bonus. Really enjoyed not having a TV! The wifi was great for multiple devices at once. Location was incredible. A couple minutes walk to the beach and town. Great for those of walking isn’t easy for them. We would definitely stay again.

Absolutely lovely house, with enough room for us all and an amazing location 👌

Just a heads up- there’s was no TV or microwave available- which with young kids, it would been handy to know prior. It’s not stated on the ammenities- but we just assumed there would be these items. Other than that, we were happy with everything else. Thanks Carla
