Ohope beachfront

A great house in a perfect spot at the end of the beach along a private piece of the waterfront road. The beach is at the end of the driveway. The property manager and owner both good to deal with. The house has everything you need.

Fabulous views and beach access.

Excellent location, very tidy and well appointed. Friendly and helpful property manager. Only one suggestion would be to add an umbrella/shade for front deck to maximise an entire day of perfect views! Highly recommend.

Incredible location

Property is right on a beautiful beach with great views from house and deck. Property could be improved with some small renovations to make the rental more private, which I have discussed with the owner. Rental could also benefit from som renovations and updates, but none the less, a great location if you want a property right at the beach.
