Rest and relax at our modern beach house where the back fence is the water edge.

Perfect spot if you need some peace and quiet, with beautiful views of the bay. The cabin is well-appointed with very comfortable beds and a great shower. Would happily stay here again.

“Absolutely loved being right by the water so peaceful and relaxing. The accommodation was spot‑on, exactly what I expected, and I’m already keen to come back. Easily one of the best spots in the area. It felt wonderfully isolated, yet only five minutes down the road were Pounawea and Owaka for a good meal out. Perfect balance of quiet and convenience.”
