3 bedrooms, a cosy lounge, and a fully fenced yard so the kids can run free.
šŸ½ļø Kitchen’s simple but sorted – oven, stove, microwave, fridge/freezer, toaster, kettle, airfryer, slow cooker, a few extra appliances, plus basic pantry essentials.
šŸ“ŗ Smart TV, free WiFi, and HDMI ports if you’re bringing a console.
ā„ļø Warm and comfy for winter with heating and electric blankets.
šŸ›ļø Beds are fully made with linen, pillows, and blankets — just show up.
🧼 Shampoo, conditioner, and bodywash provided in pump bottles.
🚿 Full bathroom and separate laundry with washer and dryer.
šŸš— Free on-site parking with room for a trailer, float, or heavy vehicle.

🌊 Hit the beach, go for a fish, walk the iconic Tolaga Bay Wharf — all just minutes away.
🌿 Quiet, rural, and real — away from the noise, but still close to what matters.

Whether you’re here to connect with whānau, chill and breathe, or just passing through on Highway 35, this is your spot to rest and reset.

šŸ’› Easy, relaxed, and real — Nau mai, haere mai!

Stay in Tolaga Bay

We spent two night's at Larissa's house in Tolaga Bay exploring the area. The hosts were so friendly and really went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable and have everything we need. Will definitely recommend this property.
