About this property

Tay St Beach Vibes house, 5-min stroll to beach

Welcome to our light, modern, comfortable home with an outdoor seating area and fully fenced backyard. All the modern conveniences are here and such a great location to both beaches - surf and harbour, shops, golf courses, hot pools, cafes and restaurants. This is the perfect location for a family holiday - summer or escaping winter.
The beautiful sandy beach of Mount Maunganui is a 5 minute stroll away. Check out the famous surf, enjoy a relaxing beach walk, walk around and/or up the Mount (Mauao) or explore the shops, cafes and bars.
The sports ground "Blake Park" is located at the end of the street, so very close if you have sports events in the area. So, our beach house is waiting for you to make memories at.

Helen and Bryan were very welcoming and their property is immaculately presented. Everything was clean and in really good condition, with some great little touches such as beach gear (and a wagon to transport it!), plus a bar of ā€œcheck-in chocolateā€. This is truly a great spot for a family stay close to the lovely Mount Maunganui beach.

Great stay! The house was very comfortable and well equipped, and the location was excellent. It was very kid-friendly, which made our stay even better. We loved the short strolls to the beach and how complete the house was, everything we needed was there. Communication with the owners was excellent throughout our stay. We would happily return!

What an absolutely wonderful place to stay! From the moment we arrived, we felt completely at home. The property was spotlessly clean, the kitchen beautifully well-stocked with everything you could need, and the beds comfortable for a perfect night's sleep.The location couldn't be better ā€” just a leisurely 6-minute walk to the most beautiful beach and a fantastic coffee shop, with town and shops all close by.But what truly made this stay so special were the hosts. Warm, caring, and so easy to communicate with ā€” they went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and looked after.We will absolutely be coming back. Highly, highly recommended!
