“Nice batch with good facilities.”
Great views from the deck. Had a nice relaxing holiday. The one minor issue was that the waste treatment system next door was occasionally noisey (pump drone) and a bit smelly. Nothing too bad but just thought I would mention. Also code for lock box was different to that supplied in email. Issue was resolved quickly by a call to 0800 no.

“The bach was mostly very nice and the location is gorgeous.”
However it is quite expensive compared to some other options in the area, and we chose it expecting that it would be modern and comfortable. We were therefore disappointed to find that couple of the beds were quite uncomfortable. The single bed base was so old and lumpy that we ended up putting the mattress on the floor, and the bunk bed squeaked so much that it kept waking up the person sleeping on it. Would highly recommend that if you are renting out the bach for this price that you upgrade these beds. Couple of other suggestions: 1) would be great if you could provide the info that even though the bach is dog friendly, the nearby tracks and walks do not allow dogs, 2) having a couple of cheap sit on top kayaks in the garage for guests to use would be awesome for being able to make the most of proximity to the harbour. Kitchen and bathroom facilities were great and well appointed.

A little slice of paradise perfectly positioned to overlook the tranquil ocean inlet and luscious native greenery; this is Ota Point Paradise!
Easy beachside living doesn't get much better than this. Comfortably sleeping up to five guests, this Whangaroa accommodation is perfect for a couples retreat or a memorable family holiday.
Ota Point Paradise is homely and inviting, offering a laid back ambience with comfortable furnishings and subtle coastal touches.
You’ll feel completely relaxed in the open-plan living area. Flick on the TV with Freeview, curl up with your favourite book, or challenge your group to a board game from the available selection.
Fry up a big breakfast in the light and spacious kitchen and serve it up on the breakfast bar or the large dining table, looking out at a glimpse of the boats passing by on the horizon.
Watch the day go by on the sun kissed deck, and take in the incredible scenery while you sip on your favourite drink and treat your group to a delicious BBQ meal.
We won't blame you for spending all day enjoying Ota Point Paradise, but there are some beautiful beaches to explore around Whangaroa. The stunning Tauranga Bay is a 13-minute drive away, where you can spend your day soaking up the sun and taking a plunge in the crystal-clear ocean.
Feeling like an adventurous day out? A must-do walk is the St Paul’s Rock Track, just a nine-minute drive away, which provides a spectacular view of the Whangaroa Harbour. Or with enough space to park your boat at Ota Point Paradise, you should not miss the opportunity to get out on the water and catch some fresh fish for dinner!

Please note a bond may be charged at certain times of the year. One of our team members will contact you if this is required for your booking.
About the location
Whangaroa is a not very well-known harbour, and is a truly unspoilt paradise. Steep bush-clad slopes come right down to the water''s edge, and there are plenty of private inlets and bays to explore, and spend the day away from reality. There are also bushwalks to be explored, and only kilometres away is some of the best game fishing in New Zealand.
