Tirohanga Wai - Waikawa Holiday Home

Tirohanga Wai, translating to Water View, is a stylish 4-bedroom holiday home boasting million-dollar views right on the harbour's edge. Perfect for the whole family, Tirohanga Wai is pet-friendly too.

Relax in style here with a fireplace on hand for cooler months, as well as unlimited WIFI and Sky TV with sports for the big game. The kids will love the converted shed decked out with toys and games to keep the whole family entertained. This modern home is a comfortable base with plush carpets in the uber-comfy bedrooms, and bamboo flooring in the kitchen and dining room.

Soak up some sun from the deck while watching the boats in the harbour, and be sure to keep your eyes peeled for the magical sight of dolphins splashing about!

You'll love being just 2-minutes stroll from the beach and jetty, where you can head out on the kayak or wander down the beach to hire stand-up paddle boards.

Tirohanga Wai is a 5-minute drive to Picton, where you can explore the quaint village, visit Kaipupu Wildlife Sanctuary and treat yourself to some world-class seafood from the many great bars and restaurants. Picton Ferry is also here if you're continuing your journey across the Cook Strait up to Wellington!

Neglected and dirty
This was by far the most neglected and dirtiest property we ever rented as a holiday accommodation. The carpet was full of hair, the entrance area had lot's of spider webs. Dishes and cutlery had to be washed before we could use them. Totally unacceptable.

How Good!! 😍
This holiday home was perfect for us! A very clean, comfortable and spacious house, caters to all ages and what a gorgeous spot! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, highly recomend and we would stay again. Only other feedback would be extra towels, bath mats, tea, and coffee would be appreciated as there were 9 of us staying for 3 nights.

Great for families
Size and layout are perfect for families. Plenty of toys and activities available. Lovely location and views. Very clean and tidy inside. Comfortable beds. The exterior of the house needs attention, but from the inside all good.

Disappointing- great location and views but a work in progress
This property has great potential but it is still a work in progress. On the positive: great views, handy to Picton, quiet neighbourhood. Interior decorations completed to date have modernised the home. Negatives: But there are no hand rails on the steps from the external decks to the land. The safety rail on the eastern deck by the left hand steps would not save anyone. Weather boards are in poor condition, many requiring full replacement. Dish washer does not dispense powder so poor wash. Those seated on the bench seat at the dining table once in cannot get out. Flat tyres on bikes and no sign of bike pumps. Only found two of the four moon chairs. Requested additional bath towels but told there is a washing machine. No hand towel in the toilet off the bunk room. No flowing soap in any of the bathrooms. I feel it was overpriced for what we got. Sorry.
