Vacation rentals with a fire pit in Ōpōtiki District

We loved everything about the cottage and had a very relaxing and comfortable stay. Tracey has thought of everything and we appreciated all the little touches. The facilities are of a very high standard with an incredible bathroom and very well-stocked kitchen. The bed was very comfortable. We really enjoyed the location so close to the beach and loved being able to swim with nobody around and join the Motu trail for walks. We will definitely be back and have no hesitation in recommending the cottage.

We had an incredible stay at Hidden Gem, Whanarua Bay. This spacious place truly exceeded our expectations. The accommodation was clean, equipped with everything we needed, outdoors bath delightful touch, fabulous bbq area, pizza oven, brazier, washing machine a great convenience, toilet and shower facilities made the stay even more comfortable. The setting is safe, secure and perfect environment for relaxation and rejuvenation. Immersed in breathtaking views of nature in complete tranquility, such a peaceful and scenic spot from the hustle and bustle. Thank you so much Alistair (down to earth, great communication, responsive host) and siblings for sharing your family paradise. Highly recommend! We definitely will return.

Great house for our girls weekend away. Clean and tidy, great location to beach. Went to restaurant that was recommended by the hosts and would highly recommended it. Would love to come back and stay again. Maree

Ellie couldn’t have been more helpful. Peaceful location with private beach.

The East Cape community is a special part of Aotearoa NZ. SH35 is a beautiful road to cruise, with great scenery everywhere. Ellie's place is exceptional even by these standards. She's part of a hard-working young family so there's other stuff going on from time to time but that enhances your stay. A terrific Kiwi experience.

During our East Cape tour we took a stop in Waihau Bay. Ellie was the loveliest host. So friendly and very easy to reach out to her, we felt very welcomed. The accommodation itself and its surrounding is just beautiful. The room was big with lovely decoration. The shared kitchen had the best equipment we came across yet and everything was so clean!! There are nice outside sitting options with a great view. All in all we enjoyed our stay a lot and would recommend 10/10.

Absolutely brilliant place. Ellie and her partner share their big house right at the waters edge with a view over the bay. As hosts they are easy going, friendly, responsive and very kind. The place is indeed a spot of paradise if you like the sea and quiet. The accommodation is unique and down to earth. There is a well equipped large kitchen, barbecue area and clean bathroom facilities. Don't expect aircon or a dishwasher but we got treated to a fabulous freshly cought barbecued fish dinner! We will be back!

We absolutely loved our stay in Sadhu’s Teahouse. Very well equipped and tidy! Also, very lovely dogs :)
