About this property

Cute cabin with sea views and oh so close to the beach.

Escape to this cabin in picturesque Waihi Beach where you can sit on the little deck and watch the water. Or walk across the road, across the reserve and you're on the beach. It's so close. This property features 1 cozy bedroom with a queen bed, with kitchenette (in the same room). There is a self-contained bathroom with toilet, basin and shower. The cabin is cute and quirky. It is on the side of our house, with its own entrance for seclusion. You can bring your own linen or use ours for no additional cost. There are basic kitchen items such as 2-element stove top, frying pan, pots, bowls, kettle etc.
32-inch smart TV now included in the room.
Oven/air fryer available on request - please include in your request for booking. No additional cost.
2 Boogie boards available at no additional cost - please include your booking request.

Great place for a couple of days

This tiny house/cabin is clean and comfortable and only a couple of minutes walk to the beach. We loved our time here and would recommend it for anyone wanting a couple of days to unwind. Although it is close to the hosts house they were very unobtrusive and kept out of our way.

A wonderful stay at the Cosy Cabin

A lovely place. It was just right for the two of us. Had everything we needed. It was exceptional in its presentation. Really recommend for two people wanting something a little different.

Lovely and relaxing

Great spot with a cute little cabin. Easy access and a short walk across the field and sand. You can see and hear the sea from the cabin. I had a lovely time.
