In the back, a covered terrace is set amongst tropical foliage making it a perfect place to relax or dine in any weather. The interior features tasteful furnishings in natural tones, complementing the bright, airy atmosphere with a Bose sound system ready to play your favorite beach tunes.

Accommodating up to eight guests plus a young child, the home offers three thoughtfully designed bedrooms and a separate sleep-out.
The elevated master suite features an ensuite, walk-in closet, and private balcony with incredible views of the ocean during the day and stargazing at night.
The 4th bedroom is a unique sleep-out providing accommodation for two guests and is nestled on the hillside behind the home amongst native trees and more amazing views.

A secluded outdoor shower for post-beach rinses is another thoughtful detail.

A separate office is available tucked away in the back of the home for those that need a quiet space to work.

Located 25 minutes from Kerikeri Airport and CBD, this pristine location is just steps to Tapuaetahi's white sand beach, ideal for swimming or snorkeling around the central reef.
A short walk down the beach at low tide leads to Taronui Bay, one of the world's rare natural lagoons, offering another exceptional swimming spot.
The property includes ample parking for vehicles and a boat, with two boat launching access points on the beach (4X4 recommended).

Two kayaks (one person + two person) and a paddle board are also available for guests to explore.

Situated on private land, guests enjoy rare access to Tapuaetahi Beach, shared only with residents of this intimate and safe community - not to mention the kiwi that also frequent the area.

Whether you're planning a family beach holiday, fishing and diving adventure, couples' retreat, or golfing escape to the renowned Kauri Cliffs championship course, Blue Water's Retreat provides the perfect setting for your Bay of Islands getaway.
