About this property

Funky 50's beach house

Come and enjoy the special micro climate of Otaki Beach. Relax on the deck with a view out to a private garden setting or take an easy three minute stroll to the beach. This Funky Fifties beach house has a bamboo bar, wood burner and a wide choice of vinyl records and CDs to listen to, many of which could be your very own favourites. In this modern age a real novelty for some! Close proximity to beach shop, restaurants, markets, outlet shops and urban centre plus the Sunday market opposite New World is well worth a visit. In season you can pick your own herbs from our very own garden. An hours drive from Wellington/Palmerston North. Otaki beach is another one of those well kept secret spots that unless you visit you won't discover for yourself. Don't take our word for it read the amazing feedback left by our previous guests!

Cosy
We enjoyed our stay; The house was clean and tidy. Having a fireplace with plenty of firewood for the cold nights was great. Check in and out details easy to follow. Chitra was great to deal with. Will book again.

A rockabilly beach-house dream
We really enjoyed our stay here in Otaki, close to the beach, great communication from the host and what a treat if you're into 50s - 60s vibe. Truly a lot of love has gone into this place.

Great spot
Very clean, very cool batch. Bus stop outside was great as we didn't have a vehicle - bus to the train station. Great outdoor area.

Otaki Beach
We enjoyed our short stay at Otaki Beach and found plenty of interest there and in the surrounding areas. Chitra's house had everything we needed. The video collection is a treasure.
