About this property
Entire place

Pakawau Princess
Step off the deck onto beautiful Pakawau Beach in Golden Bay. This modern contempory architectural design home spares nothing in luxury and comfort. You can fish straight off the deck, walk on the beach or snuggle up by the fire reading a great book while a storm rages outside. Bring your boat or jetski, kitesurf or kayak, SUP or kontiki.....bring your toys to enjoy this part of paradise. Horse trekking, Heaphytrack, the list goes on to customize your holiday. 5 mins down the road is a licensed cafe and dairy to top up your supplies or get a delicious ice cream, Collingwood is about 10mins away for more options for eating. If you would rather cook at home this modern kitchen is set up to cook gourmet if you desire. Photos don't do this location justice....you have to see it to believe it.
The vacation home is heated and has a washing machine and an ironing board. The vacation home also includes a hair dryer.
