About this property

Vintage Pohutukawa - Whangamata Bach

Nestled beneath a magnificent pōhutukawa tree, this character-filled bach combines decades of holiday memories with a relaxed setting for families and friends to create new ones of their own.

Designed for effortless holiday living, the spacious outdoor areas invite long summer days spent dining alfresco, firing up the BBQ, and unwinding in the shade of the iconic pōhutukawa. Multiple decks provide spaces to gather or retreat with a good book, while glimpses of the ocean add to the laid-back holiday atmosphere. Inside, the open living spaces and well-equipped kitchen provide everything needed for comfortable stays, with plenty of room for families and friends to come together after a day of adventure.

Sleeping up to 10 guests across four bedrooms, Vintage Pohutukawa is ideal for extended family holidays and group getaways. Thoughtful touches throughout the home celebrate its heritage, while a collection of books, games, and toys provides entertainment for all ages. The generous section offers plenty of space for backyard cricket, outdoor games, and relaxed afternoons in the Coromandel sunshine, creating the kind of holiday memories that are cherished for years to come.

Leave the car behind and embrace the convenience of this sought-after location. The beach is just across the road, while the local surf club, cafés, and township are all within easy reach. Whether your days are spent swimming, surfing, exploring the estuary, or simply relaxing beneath the pōhutukawa, Vintage Pohutukawa offers an authentic Whangamatā escape where timeless holiday traditions live on.
Please note that a section of the deck is not fenced and has a small step down to the lawn. Guests should take care when using this area.

What a perfect little slice of Kiwiana heaven!

What a perfect little slice of Kiwiana heaven! This bach is also like the Tardis in that it's amazing just how much space is in there! The kitchen is incredibly well stocked with every implement you're likely to need, and there are so many great books I have to go back again soon just to read more. The second bathroom was really just the icing on the cake. Only seconds from the beach - it's really hard to fault this wonderful spot.

We absolutely loved our stay.

We absolutely loved our stay. The bach is quintessentially kiwi and full of charm - things may be a little old and tired but we found everything that we needed and enjoyed being in a home that is obviously so well loved. The location is brilliant, just a hop skip and a jump to the beach. We hope we can book this bach again in the future.
