Sunny Bach on Citrus - By Village
Great stay! We did have a power cut the first night which was extremely unlucky but Lisa refunded us the night and communicated well when the power was going to be back on. Otherwise house was awesome and in a great location. Would definitely stay here again

TUI House @ Waihi Beach
A stunning whare to stay for a retreat away from the business of life. Loved waking up to the tūī singing in the surrounding bush. Good privacy, peaceful environment, beautiful decor, and very close to the beach and local bush walks. We left feeling very refreshed and rested. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home for others to enjoy!

The Dome Waikino: privacy in nature
The Dome is a lovely and peaceful getaway and was a highlight on my road trip in NZL so far. Birds chirping, wind softly stroking the plants: exactly what you would expect from a more private & quiet accomodation to relax & calm down. It's really worth to get to the Dome before it is dark and to soak in the atmosphere in the lovely garden. If you are lucky with the weather, you might be greeted by a sky full of stars at night. I was greeted kindly and the instructions on how to get to the accomodation were very clear. Definitely recommendable!

Family beach house with pool
Such a lovely spot. The house had great amenities and was super clean. I was with group of friends and we found the place to be perfect. Nice outdoor sitting area, board games and books. Highly recommend

Sea Breeze Guest Studio
Great location, close to the beach and cafes. Laurette was great with communication leading up to and during the stay

Lotus Cottage
A lovely, peaceful and private get away! It was so nice to be out of the hustle and bustle of the city, I thoroughly enjoyed my time in the stunning gardens surrounded by trees and wildlife. Tracey's place has everything you need, is comfortable, homely and very quiet. I loved every minute here!

Views, luxury and peace- minutes from Waihi Beach
This is a fabulous airbnb. Hotel quality and very stylish interior, gorgeous large bathroom with great products. Every small detail has been thought of . Tomato sauce and plastic wine glasses for fish and chips at the beach . Treats and breakfast in fridge. You’d be crazy not to choose this for a great retreat weekend . Hosts are super friendly and even gave us a bag of avacados to take home.

The Hilly House, Private Boutique Accommodation
This was an incredibly gorgeous area. We watched the sun rise over the hills and fed the inquisitive llamas. There was also a friendly horse that would walk up and down the lane. The stars were extremely bright at night. Completely scrumptious fresh fruit was in the fridge for us. The house was full of windows so we could see the beautiful terrain and animals at all times. Make sure to take a bath under the stars when you stay here!

Your guide to Waihi Beach
All About Waihī Beach
Located on the Bay of Plenty two hours southeast of Auckland, the vibrant town of Waihī Beach is a gateway to New Zealand’s Coromandel Peninsula.
The town’s main attraction is the beach, a six-mile-long sandy shoreline that is fringed with pohutukawa trees and dotted with sun bleached driftwood. The gentle waves are perfect for playing in the surf or swimming in the patrolled areas, and there is plenty of space to spread out, even on the busiest summer days.
Just a 10-minute drive away, you will find the historic gold mining town of Waihī, which is home to the Waihī Gold Discovery Centre, a museum that showcases the region's gold mining industry. Additionally, you’ll find hiking and biking trails in the nearby Karangahake Gorge, including the Hauraki Rail Trail, a coastal track that leads through historic towns and past relics of the old mining industry.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Waihi Beach
With relatively mild weather all year round, Waihī is a great four-season destination. The summer months feature long, sunny days that are perfect for being on and in the water. This is a popular time to secure Waihī Beach holiday rentals. In the spring and fall, the temperatures drop a bit, which is just fine if your aim is to explore the many nearby hiking trails. During the winter, the weather is often cold and damp, so pack a few extra layers of clothing and an umbrella.
Top things to do in Waihi Beach
Waihī Arts Centre & Museum
Situated in the town of Waihī, the Waihī Arts Centre & Museum is where you can learn about the area’s gold mining past or view the newest art additions created by local artists. Geology samples, mining models, antique tools, and historical photographs are all on display here.
Karangahake Gorge
Located just a 20-minute drive west of Waihī, the Karangahake Gorge was once a bustling gold mining site. Today, you can wander along a historic 4.5-mile walkway as it curves alongside the Ohinemuri River. Or take a stroll on the hour-long Windows Walk, which traverses old gold mining tunnels and across cliffs of the Waitawheta Gorge. Both trails offer a glimpse into the area's mining heritage, along with spectacular scenery of the gorge.
Hauraki Rail Trail
This 100-mile-long bike trail starts at Kaiaua and goes all the way to Matamata. The trail passes right by the town of Waihī, and this is one of the only places where you can still spot the century-old railway that once served as the lifeline of the North Island. A small section of the trail passes through the Karangahake Gorge.
