About this property

Tranquil sunny spot in the heart of Piha. 10 minutes walk to the beach.

Nestled in the heart of Piha, Wai o Kahu Bach is the perfect retreat for two-an ideal space to relax recharge and explore everything this iconic coastal destination has to offer.

Set in a sunny peaceful location overlooking the charming Wai o Kahu stream the bach enjoys views towards Lion Rock and the stunning Waitakere ranges.

From here you are just an easy stroll to Piha Beach, the local store, eateries and art gallery, with the spectacular Kitekite Falls just at the end of the road.

The private, standalone, self contained bach has been recently renovated and thoughtfully designed for comfort, featuring full insulation and double glazed windows for year round cosiness.

Inside, the generous open-plan space includes a kitchenette, modern bathroom, comfortable queen bed, fold out couch and a dining table for relaxed meals or morning coffee.

Step outside onto the sunny deck- the perfect spot to unwind, take in the surroundings and enjoy the natural beauty of Piha.

Lovely little studio. Very peaceful. I didn’t see the key lockbox at first but Michele very quickly came to help amd was friendly. Walking distance to R.S.A for dinner. It was raining all weekend, i’d love to go back during finer weather!

This is a gorgeous studio apartment with a view of mountains and stream. Extremely close to the beach and cool Piha Store, RSA, and other restaurants all walking distance. I'd stay here again! Very quiet.
