Stunning seaside retreat on Ohope Beach. Finalist Bach of the Year 2018

Ohope is a drivable destination as it is just one hour south of Tauranga. The house is in the prime location on the Golden Mile, no sand dunes to interrupt magnificent views of the Pacific Ocean, Whale and Whakaari/White Island.

Ohope has many locals eateries; cafes and restaurants. Fishing charters available from Ohope or Whakatane, cycle and walking trails, international golf course, boats ramps, surfing lessons, paddleboard hire, 11 kms of safe swimming beach and walkable distance to Ohiwa harbour attractions.

A modern house with large open plan living, great decks from which you can enjoy the view of the ocean, or you can retreat to the back garden which is surrounded by tropical palm trees.

Stunning spot, well set up house
Lorraine was amazing with her communication, which was a great start to our weekend. Everything was as expected, clean, well set up & with a gorgeous view. We loved the proximity to the beach & how quiet the road is. The kitchen has everything you'd need to make gourmet food, and we did! Highly recommend this place

Best Water Views
We have stayed in many holiday homes, but have never come across such lovely hosts who went over board to welcome us and make sure we had everything we needed. Their home and grounds were spotless and most of all the view of the water/beach was amazing. We will return in summer, can't wait!
