Ruakaka Coastal Reserve Retreat

With plenty of room to spread out, a sunny outdoor entertaining area, and space to park the boat, this relaxed Northland getaway is the perfect base for making the most of the region's stunning coastline.

Spend your days swimming, surfing, bodyboarding, or strolling along the endless shoreline before returning home to rinse off under the outdoor shower. The expansive deck is ideal for laid-back afternoons and summer BBQs, offering a great space to gather together and enjoy the fresh sea air. The flat section provides plenty of room for children to play, ride bikes, and enjoy outdoor games, while the local skate park is just a two-minute drive away for even more family fun.

Inside, the open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area creates a comfortable hub where everyone can come together after a day of adventure. Large windows invite natural light inside, creating a bright and welcoming atmosphere. Practical conveniences including a washing machine and hairdryer make longer stays easy and enjoyable.

Sleeping up to 10 guests across four bedrooms, the home is well suited to families and groups. Two bedrooms feature queen beds, while the remaining rooms offer double bunks, providing flexible sleeping arrangements for adults and children alike.

Located just minutes from Ruakaka Village, you'll have easy access to supermarkets, cafés, takeaway outlets, and other essentials. Marsden Marina is only a 10-minute drive away, making this an excellent choice for boating enthusiasts.

With a partially fenced, pet-friendly section and ample off-street parking, including space for a boat over seven metres long, Ruakaka Coastal Reserve Retreat offers a relaxed and convenient coastal escape where beach days, family memories, and Northland adventures await.

Please note that there are security cameras, placed in the outdoor areas by the entrances, that will be operating for added security during your stay.
