Resorts in Tutukaka

Fabulous location with beautiful views across the harbour. Great facilities including a pool, spa pool and barbeques

Capable friendly staff coupled with an amazing restaurant which is worthy of a Michelin Star

We stayed at Pohutukawa Batch for 8 days while in town for family business, and it was an awesome place to stay. Even though the weather was cold, windy, and rainy, the batch was warm and inviting, with two heaters that kept us extra cosy the whole time. The batch is fully equipped — unlike some places that only provide the basics. We cooked dinner every night for four people and had everything we needed with no issues at all. We also found the price amazing for everything included — honestly felt underpriced for the comfort and quality we got. The batch was spotless, and the beds were soft and comfortable, giving us some of the best sleeps we’ve had in a long time. If you love fishing, you’ll love the location. It’s just a short walk across the road to the beach. I caught kahawai and trevally — just cast towards the buoys and chur chur! The shower is hot with perfect water pressure, which made coming back from the cold even better. The main town is only a short drive away, so everything is nice and convenient. The owners live upstairs and are warm, friendly, and very chill people, so don’t be shy. We also loved the family photos and learning a little about the history of the house — you can really feel the love and care the family has put into this place. All I can say is highly recommend — definitely 10 out of 10!

Beautiful property. Kind people. Went out of their way to help us because somehow we got the dates mixed up. Brought us fresh eggs from their chickens and fresh bread. Best place on a 2 wk NZ trip.

Great location quiet great host lovely people very kind and friendly

We absolutely loved our time at this beautiful beach house. It was spotless, extremely well kept, and thoughtfully designed for comfort — from the cozy living spaces to the comfortable beds and generous outdoor areas. The house was also very well equipped with everything we needed, making it easy to settle in and feel at home right away. The spectacular view of the bay was a constant highlight, whether enjoying morning coffee on the deck or watching the sunset in the evenings. We also took full advantage of the location, spending time snorkeling around the island and kayaking in the sheltered bay, both unforgettable experiences. A wonderful place to stay — we’d happily return.
