Guest Review
“This is our second stay at this beautiful house. The location is spectacular with amazing views of the ocean and surrounding nature. The house has an amazing zen-like calm about it. It is beautifully furnished and has everything you could possibly want or need for a beach stay.
It’s among my favorite places that I’ve stayed anywhere in the world and I look forward to coming back in the future!”

A Home of Architectural Distinction
Clean, minimalist lines hide the home’s incredible structural complexity. Floating, cantilevered wings enhance the sense of elevation and offer uninterrupted views over the ocean and lush bush. The design blends strength and sustainability, built from enduring materials like steel beams, concrete block, natural timber, Hebel flooring, and premium architectural aluminium joinery.
Inside, you’ll find a warm, lodge-like ambiance with luxury at every turn. The home features:
- 3 beautifully appointed bedrooms, each with private ensuite
- Yoga room, which can also serve as a fourth bedroom
- Two separate living areas for flexible relaxation and entertaining
- Designer kitchen, fully equipped for gourmet cooking
- Triple car garaging
- Roll-down sun filters on all windows
- Solar power and natural ventilation for year-round comfort
The open-plan design flows seamlessly to a spacious hardwood deck with Coast Bean Chairs and loungers — the perfect place to enjoy sunrise, sunset, and the rhythm of the waves below.
The Essence of Hauora
Hauora is a uniquely New Zealand Māori concept of holistic wellbeing. This home embraces all four pillars of hauora:
- Taha tinana (physical health)
- Taha wairua (spiritual health)
- Taha hinengaro (mental and emotional wellbeing)
- Whānau (connection to family and community)
Your stay here offers the chance to reconnect, recharge, and truly experience these dimensions of wellness.
