About this property

Muriwai Surf Shack

Escape to the Wild West coast to our tranquil surf shack. Beach access only a 20 minute walk, or 3 minute drive, enjoy one of the best Auckland surf beaches, the local bakery and cafe, golf course and bike trails. Quiet and peaceful, relax in our outdoor bath or shower after a surf. You wake to beautiful birdsong amongst our native coastal garden. The secluded outdoor bath & shower is a great way to unwind after a surf, with a glass of Chardonnay in hand.
The apartment is heated and features a kitchenette, 1.5 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board. Change of towels is available on request.

The surf shack is a really nice place, we felt comfortable from the first moment. It's nice to see all the work in the details, it's a great upcycling work with lots of plants. The covered outside area is great and we had everthing we needed. D'Arcy is a great host and gives great attention.Thanks!
