Tapuaetahi Beachfront Downstairs Unit

There's nothing to interrupt the unforgettable views out over the impressive blue waters of Tapuaetahi Beach here! Welcome to Tapuaetahi Beachfront Studio.

When you need a slice of paradise that is perfectly perched for the views, located away from the hustle and bustle of busier holiday spots and is ideally low-key for just the two of you, look no further than this little holiday spot.

Feel the stress melt away as soon as you arrive, put your bags down and waste no time hitting the pristine beach just out in front of the studio.

From the indoor-outdoor flow out onto the large sundeck and the great views down to the sea, to the stylish furnishings, WiFi and of course, the must-have BBQ, you can't go wrong with all the holiday essentials on-hand here at Tapuaetahi Beachfront Studio.

The beach is perfect for swimming as it is quite protected. There are also plenty of opportunities here for snorkelling, stand-up paddle-boarding, kayaking, and fishing in and around the bay, so don't forget to pack your gear!

Not far away there is also Waitangi Bike Park, with both trail riding and coastal cycle trail options to suit your pace. If you fancy a short 40-minute tramp, the historical Marsden Cross Track is another great nearby option, situated just a short 20-minute drive away. And of course, if you bring a boat with you, you also have the whole Bay of Islands to explore, with Waipapa Landing Public Boat ramp available within a short 12-minute drive.

From here you can also head into Kerikeri central and stop by the local cafes and restaurants for a bite to eat or to stock up on any supplies!

Late summer break

Had wrong gate code from you. Had great weather which always makes things better. Would have been grateful of early advice that water was in short supply. Nice community at Tapuaetahi though disappointing restrictions on where you could walk.
