Hillside Haven - Stylish, sunny holiday home with pool and spa in beautiful rural setting

Please note for New Years bookings you must ENQUIRE first before booking as we have different requirements for this period.
This stylish, sunny holiday home with saltwater pool and spa is truly a Hillside Haven. The house is beautifully appointed with all the necessary amenities and the covered deck gets all day sun and affords beautiful views over the surrounding countryside. Watch the family play in the pool or just relax and enjoy the beautiful sunsets with a cool drink in hand.
The 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom holiday home has open-plan living/dining/kitchen which flows onto a large deck with multiple seating and alfresco dining options. The interior has been tastefully decorated and the kitchen has all the mod cons including a coffee machine (some beans will be provided but you may need to bring additional).
After a day at the beach this is a fantastic oasis to retire to, particularly when Mangawhai is at its busiest, or just avoid the crowds and laze your day away in and around the saltwater pool. The property has also been set up to enjoy year round, with a Heat Pump in the living room, spa pool and outdoor brazier with seating. Two Smart TVs and unlimited Wi-Fi provide entertainment options and keep you connected to the outside world, if you wish to be!
All in all it is an idyllic setting to get away from it all while still being close to the action. Just down the road you have several wineries and the Tanekaha walking tracks, and Mangawhai Heads and all it has to offer is only a 10-15 minute drive away. With lots of space and great entertaining options both inside and out, it is great for a family or a small group of mature couples.
This is truly the perfect place to relax and enjoy the magic of Mangawhai under two hours from Auckland. Grab you friends and family for a truly memorable stay, you won't want to leave.

Once your booking is approved, we will send you a payment email with a choice of credit card payment (a 3% surcharge applies) or bank transfer (no charges). Please note the amount stated as 'Deposit Paid at Property' on the Bookabach/VRBO quote is actually a refundable bond that will be collected as part of the accommodation payment, it is not collected at the property as the wording suggests.
Mangawhai is the perfect summer holiday destination or coastal retreat. With its beautiful swimming and surf beaches and abundant marine life, Mangawhai is a popular spot for sailing, fishing, surfing, diving and summer family fun. The clear waters of the estuary provide safe family swimming, and the secluded white sand beaches of Te Arai and Pakiri are a short drive away.
Enjoy the vibrant art and cafe scene, local farmers market and the famous Bennetts Chocolate Shop. Soak up the natural beauty of this slice of coastal paradise, beachcombing, bush walking or just relaxing in a comfy chair with a glass of something cool.
