    Rex and Vicky were great hosts - available but not obtrusive. The accommodation was very clean and had all we needed including a great shower room. One of the reasons we chose it was that it was within walking distance to restaurants, cafes...

Rex & Vicky Knight
This well appointed room is ideal for one or two people. It is set at the rear of a residential house that looks out onto a quiet garden area. It is secluded surrounded by plants that gives privacy. There is an outside table and chairs in this area which captures the afternoon sun. It is close to the nearby beach and the sound of the waves can be heard. The room has a kitchenette and seating area making the stay very comfortable. There is a flatscreen television that provides Netflix and Freeview TV on Demand. There is also TV NZ On Demand which gives access to live television for TV One which includes live news. The toilet shower room is just outside the main entry door and provides good hot water pressure. IN HOUSE MASSAGE AVAILABLE: Highly recommended by hosts. For further information contact hosts at time of booking.
Over the years we have loved travelling and stayed in some wonderful places. We would now like to give guests the opportunity to share our home and the wonderful things that Waihi Beach has to offer.
A great popular beach location close to the surf club North End with local takeaway fast food grocery shop and a very good busy cafe just around the corner. The neighbourhood is a mixture of permanent and out of town owners. The area is still very beach traditional with minimal development in terms of any high rise buildings.
