Serene Cove Escape - Waipu Holiday Home

Inside, this charming bach features a living room bathed in natural light with stunning coastal views. Bifold doors open onto a sun-drenched deck, where you can relax and enjoy the soothing sights and sounds of the surrounding countryside. Three cosy bedrooms and a neat bathroom with a shower over bath make up for a relaxing stay.

When adventure calls, head to nearby Johnson Point, a hidden local gem with its serene estuary perfect for swimming and kayaking. Take a stroll through the dunes at low tide to discover a secluded white sand beach that feels like your own private escape— truly a scene straight from a postcard. You can also walk or cycle all the way to Waipu Cove beach on a new purpose-built track next to the road which can be accessed from the driveway entrance.

Whether you’re seeking a relaxing family retreat or a nostalgic coastal escape, Serene Cove Escape offers the perfect blend of charm, privacy, and adventure for your next holiday.
Please take care on the deck, as there is a 1m drop in some areas without a full barrier.
