Nestled down a private driveway in the renowned Whitianga Waterways is our delightful stand-alone studio that has been created with you in mind. Fully equipped kitchen, tiled bathroom with heated towel rail, king bed, Smart TV, Wi-fi internet, soft lighting, and oh so peaceful and quiet. Continental breakfast provisions are provided. Relax, unwind, listen to the bird song, take a stroll around our tropical gardens, an ideal retreat to refresh and rejuvenate. Our property is located down a private driveway adjacent to the Waterways canal. We are very fortunate to have a reserve and estuary behind us to enjoy and to walk around, take in the sights of the canal entrance, the nesting birds, and no passing traffic. The terrain is flat, easy to walk around the Waterways, into town to shop and visit the many restaurants and cafes, or take a walk along the reserves to the boat ramp. No problem with parking.
