Mokino: Absolutely SENSATIONAL views !!!

""Best view in Mokau""

Upgraded Kiwi Bach , 5 Bedrooms, 2 Bathrooms, (Sleeps 12)
Fabulous South and West views over Mokau Beach all the way past White Cliffs to Mt Taranaki, which our builder claims has the "Best view in Mokau". Stroll on spacious, wild and exhilarating black sand beaches with bleached driftwood and big surf. Warm and very cozy whatever the season and love the Sundowners ! You really won't want to go home.
_
"Mokino" is situated in a friendly cluster of 7 houses midway between Mokau and Awakino (each 3mins by car). Shared foot track provides direct access to the beach below, a right turn will bring you to a small cave and waterfall. Great fishing from the beach (kite/torpedo/drone) or cast a line at the Mokau or Awakino river mouths, also whitebait during season (September 1 to October 30). Excellent beach and cliff walks in the area (beach islands and loads of caves to explore). At high tide Mokau river has sheltered swimming/boating, particularly when sea is rough.

Bring your personal items, food, bed linen (sheets and pillow cases, maybe sleeping bags for kids) & towels. Plenty of Duvets, Blankets & Pillows are available. Great for 2 families, with 12 beds (3x queen doubles, 2x double/single bunks), and a further 2+ possible

Linen service is available by request only (bed linen, towels - for a per person per stay fee).

External stairs takes you through a sliding gate onto large deck with access to upstairs - master (queen) bedroom, sunny (queen) panorama room, shower/basin/toilet, and spacious well equiped kitchen/lounge/dining area dominated by huge windows facing Nth, Sth and W. In winter, all made cosy by ceiling panel heaters.
.
Ground level is accessed by level path under deck (no internal stairs), with 2 steps down to bedroom level - comprises 3 bedrooms: double/single bunk, queen, and double/single bunk. Adjacent to downstairs entrance is shower/basin/toilet. Electric wall panel heaters in all rooms.
.
North side of the house has a flat, sunny sheltered lawn (ok for tents). Awesome private hot outdoor shower for washing down after your swim. Garden partially fenced.

What a view

This property was amazing. Had everyting you we needed for a short stay. The views were better than expected. The beach was beautifil. Plenty of space. Outdoor hot shower is fab for the kids to wash off under after the beach. And the bonus of being able to take our dog with us also was even better. Communication was great. Higly recommended. Would love to be able to stay againone day.

We have used this accommodation on various occasions and it has always been fantastic as per description in the reviews. Although ours has been for work purposes - what better way to come "home" after a days work that to accommodation this close to the beach.
