As you step inside, the thoughtfully curated details of modern fixtures, natural timber furnishings, and earthy tones create a welcoming ambiance across two levels. The open-plan kitchen and dining area, adorned with a glossy, light-tilted floor, exudes brightness and warmth. The kitchen, equipped with top-notch appliances including a Smeg coffee machine, invites you to savor every moment of your stay. The breakfast bar adds an extra dimension, providing ample seating for your group to come together.

Black French doors lead to a generously sized deck, blurring the boundaries between indoor and outdoor spaces. Here, a luxurious outdoor lounge suite beckons for daytime snoozing or cloud-watching.

The large master bedroom on the second floor exudes a resort-like feel with a California king-sized bed, a private balcony, and a dreamy ensuite featuring a shower, basin, and spa bath. Bedrooms three and four each boast a queen-sized bed, and a third bathroom on this level ensures convenience for all guests.

The fully equipped laundry room, complete with a washing machine, dryer, and basin, adds to the convenience of your stay. Parking space for three cars is available in the driveway, though please note that there is no garage access.

The unbeatable location places Mount Maunganui Beach just a short distance away, inviting you to spend your days swimming, surfing, or simply enjoying the sea salt waters. Bayfair Shopping Centre, a two-minute drive away, offers ample choices for shopping, dining, and entertainment.

Why Stay with Beyonder

Very responsive hosts. The property was spotless and very spacious. There was plenty of room for an intergenerational group and the downstairs bedroom with an adjacent bathroom and sitting room was much appreciated by a family member with limited mobility. Recommended.
Claire
Haley’s place was absolutely wonderful. It’s beautifully decorated and cared for and you can tell from the moment you walk in the detail and interior design was carefully chosen. The beds were very comfortable. The kitchen was wonderful for cooking meals (which we did mostly due to allergies). Location is walkable to a lovely part of the beach, and about a 12-minute drive to the mount, other beaches, and great restaurants/shopping. Parking was welcome as we rented a car and the spot was perfect to navigate. Communication with the hosts was great, they were all truly friendly and kind. Thank you again Haley! We hope to stay here again one day!!

We had a perfect stay, what a gem of a house! We were in the country for a large family get together. The house was located well to meet our family but a wonderful place to come back and have a break. The house is ever so relaxing to be in and every detail is thought through. My family agree it’s one of the nicest Airbnbs we have ever stayed in. Thank you!
Emma

We couldn't have asked for a better stay to set up while in town for a wedding. The house was so spacious, perfectly equipped and beautifully set up, making it the perfect place to unwind. Being so close to the beach was definitely the highlight. We’d love to stay here again!

Lovely home with plenty of space for our group of four. The big projector TV was fabulous to come home to and unwind after busy days of tennis. The master bedroom was very spacious and lovely, all beds were comfortable. Great location and handy to many amenities. Would happily stay here again in the future.
