About this property

Cool Waters is perfect for family holidays!

Omaha is holiday heaven! This modern single-level home is on a flat section in a quiet street, only 55 minutes drive from Central Auckland. Less driving, more relaxing! Two families can stay comfortably, relaxing and enjoying all the amenities this home has to offer.

The large open-plan kitchen and living area opens wide onto a huge covered ground-level deck and fully fenced yard. An open gas fire adds an extra bonus for the cooler months. We offer 2 queen-size double rooms at opposite ends of the house, one with en-suite bathroom, and a great bunk room that sleeps 4. The main bathroom has a shower and a full size bath, with a separate toilet, ideal for young families.

If you have to cancel because Covid-19 restrictions won't permit you to stay, then we can arrange a full refund.

We look forward to sharing our holiday home with you.

Great location!
What a lovely spot, we really loved our week long stay here. Clean, quiet, well equipped and close to beach, playgrounds, cafe and shop. Fenced in property for the kids to run around in, and the outdoor shower was a hit after the beach! A great place to relax after a fun full day of adventuring.

Brilliant location and comfortable
Excellent, clean house and was just as described, we enjoyed our stay. Was perfect for our group who cooked most meals on the BBQ during our 3 night stay. Had everything needed for our 16mo (safe property in summer, used highchair and portacot, missing a mattress which were told about well in advance but had forgotten!). Easy walk to the beach, shop, and our toddler enjoyed the park. Thanks so much we would love to stay again if the opportunity arises!
