Welcome to Pōhutukawa Studio, a peaceful standalone cabin tucked on our property beneath a beautiful Pōhutukawa tree, overlooking the Waikareao Estuary and a quiet farm outlook with cows and native birdlife. The cabin is fully private with its own entrance and not connected to our house. Inside, you’ll find a comfortable studio space with a private bathroom, reliable Wi-Fi, and a tea/coffee station for relaxed mornings. Step out and you’re a 2-minute walk from the Waikareao Walkway; it’s also walking distance to Starbucks, a supermarket and local shops, and an easy short drive to Tauranga CBD and Mount Maunganui. Perfect for nature lovers and city explorers looking for a quiet base with convenient access to the best of Tauranga.

We’re long-time travelers who’ve finally put down roots in Tauranga. Along the way we were welcomed by wonderful hosts, and now it’s our turn to pay that kindness forward. We love good food, art and live music, and we’re happy to share local recommendations for cafés, the Waikareao Walkway, Tauranga CBD and Mount Maunganui. We live in the main house on the property and are close by if you need anything, while the studio cabin remains fully private and self-contained.

Located in Brookfield (Tauranga), our studio sits in a calm, safe, family-friendly neighbourhood bordering the Waikareao Estuary. It’s 2 minutes to the scenic Waikareao Walkway for waterfront strolls and cycling, and an easy walk to everyday essentials—Starbucks, supermarket, cafés and shops. You’ll have straightforward road access for a short drive to Tauranga CBD and the beaches at Mount Maunganui. Rideshares and local buses serve the area, and parking is simple with off-street parking on site. It’s a peaceful spot with native birdlife and a relaxed, residential feel—perfect for unwinding after a day out.
