Hosts on the Coast Seaside Escape

Seaside Escape is a charming cottage in the heart of Whitianga — close to both the beach and town, making it the perfect spot for an effortless holiday.
The bach sleeps 6 guests across two bedrooms in the main house and a welcoming sleepout. The master bedroom features a queen bed, while the second bedroom has two single beds — both with TVs and ceiling fans for comfort. The sleepout offers a double bed, ideal for extra family or friends.
The lounge is cosy with comfortable seating and a flatscreen TV. The dining table is perfect for relaxed evening meals or a friendly game of cards. The kitchen, while compact, has everything you need to prepare your favourite holiday treats. Or take dinner outside — fire up the BBQ and dine al fresco on the deck at the sunlit outdoor table.
The fully fenced section offers great lawn space, giving kids room to play safely. There’s also an outdoor shower, perfect for rinsing off sandy feet after a day at the beach.
Bring the boat — there’s plenty of parking — and make the most of Mercury Bay whether you're fishing, diving, or heading out to Mercury Island for a picnic and swim. Seaside Escape is the perfect base for adventure, or simply relaxing seaside at your own pace.
You’re also just a short walk from The Lost Spring hot pools, where tropical vibes, hot mineral pools and pure relaxation make for a blissful evening soak.
Book your stay today and start your Whitianga holiday with a smile.

Whitianga is a popular holiday destination located on the Coromandel Peninsula. It is the gateway to some amazing beaches and scenery. Wandering the shops is a good start and if you get a bit peckish head to one of many delightful eateries whether it's a pie and donut, or a sit-down lunch with a cold beverage. There are plenty of options. There is plenty to do for the kids as well with mini golf, movies, an awesome skatepark and kids' playground, and of course, there is the Mercury Bay Museum. For adults, a trip to the Lost Springs Thermal Spa and Hot Pools is a great way to spend a couple of hours relaxing in tropical surroundings. If you make your way to the wharf you can catch the passenger ferry to Ferry Landing & take a walk over to Front Beach. Tour boats also leave from the wharf which can show you around the area and stop close to Cathedral Cove within the Marine Reserve, watch the fish, go for a snorkel, or take a cave tour. If fishing is your idea of a good time, there are plenty of Charters that can take you out. Or you could take a drive out to Hahei. From here you can take the 40-minute walk to world-renowned Cathedral Cove, or you can head to the beach where there is a water taxi that can take you. Hot Water Beach is not to be missed. At low tide dig a hole and you will have your own hot pool! Spades can be hired from the local store.
