Excellent location, just a few meters to the beach. Beautiful view. The cottage was surprisingly spacious for us as a family of 3. Hosts were great with communication. Thank you for the Christmas pies, it was a highly appreciated extra.

This little gem has the best of everything - location, views, the perfect layout for relaxing and entertaining, and beautiful decor for a modern laid back beach feel. It is immediately appealing both to small families and couples. It is perched 100 metres away from the white sands of Stanmore Bay beach with sea views that immediately relax the senses. It is like you are floating on a bed of green pohutakawas looking out to the blue of the ocean. Forget your worries in this serene space.

The cottage is located in a relaxed beachy resort location & floats along at a very slow pace. There are milkbars (general store style) & icecream trucks visiting Stanmore Bay Park regularly. Stanmore Bay is one of about a dozen white sandy beachs on the Hibiscus Coast (Whangaparaoa Peninsula). Neighboring beaches include Orewa, Red Beach, Swann Beach, Manly, Tindalls Beach, Army Bay & Gulf Harbor & Marina. The Coast has two huge supermarkets, Countdown & New World, a movie theatre complex( 4 theatres), skate park, boat ramp & a host of restaurants serving a variety of international dishes. There is a heated pool at the Stanmore Leisure Centre including basketball courts & football fields. The Coast is fully independent of all medical services including "Urgent" doctors & pharmacies & St Johns Ambulance service.
