This felt like staying at a friend's home rather than a hotel. More like an Airbnb or a B&B, this was a room (with its own bathroom) in the house. The room was large, comfortable and clean. Though it's on the main street, it's very quiet at night....

Harbourview Tairua accommodation is a great place to stay; a spacious and comfortable and self-contained one- or two bedroom apartment on the ground floor, each with its own bathroom and deck. There’s a separate lounge/kitchenette, with fridge, microwave and toaster, which opens onto a sub-tropical garden with dining table, 6m swimming pool and BBQ, and of course our incredible views over the ever-changing tidal Harbour to Mount Paku. And Harbourview Tairua accommodation is the perfect location for exploring. The world famous Hot Water Beach and Cathedral Cove are just 30 minutes away; Whangamata, Whitianga and Thames are 40 minutes' drive and Coromandel Town just 75. There are free off-road parking spaces, and free wifi. Tairua is a treasure too. The long, dune-backed ocean beach rivals any on the Pacific coast and is famed for its magnificent surf and golden sand. Mount Paku dominates the horizon as well as offering amazing views from the summit. There’s a thriving community, with excellent restaurants, cafes, galleries and shops , lots of great walks and cycle tracks, a golf course – and year-round fishing. Harbourview is just five minutes' walk from the town centre and estuary beaches and a short drive or 20-minute walk to the ocean beach. PLEASE NOTE, BREAKFAST IS NOT PROVIDED Harbourview Tairua is ideal for short or longer stays, for two to four guests, You’ll love it here!!
After nine seasons running The Harbour View as a popular B&B, hosting guests from all over the world, Jane and Chris are downsizing from the summer of 2026, offering 'room only' with no breakfast. Guests will still have full access to the guest lounge, with fridge, microwave, separate seating and utensils, And the garden/patio/pool area has a dining table, as well as a covered alcove with seating and a small BBQ, And of course Jane and Chris will be available during your stay with tips and suggestions for getting the most out of the wonderful Coromandel.
This is a great base for exploring the whole of the Coromandel. The world-famous Hot Water Beach and Cathedral Cove are nearby, the Pacific Ocean is across our harbour. Great walks, fascinating history, beautiful wildlife, markets, coastal towns and the Coromandel Pinnacles are all nearby. The harbour teems with birdlife, from colourful kingfisher to world-record migratory Godwits. There are local fishing trips, chances to sail, golf courses everywhere, cycle parhers, walking trails and great local food.
