No, we're not lying - this really is beachfront.....! There is nothing between you and the beach apart from sandunes, serenity and shells at this beautifully positioned Papamoa bach!!

Walk off the front deck, take about 50 paces down the walkway and you're at the surf's edge of one of NZ's best beaches! Surf, hunt for pipi, boogie board or laze in the sun - if you're looking for a relaxing holiday this Papamoa bach is the place for you.

A bach is the perfect word for this holiday home. Tidily renovated with easy-care finishes, this two-bedroom bach was built for maximum enjoyment and minimum fuss.

The master bedroom with walk-in wardrobe, has French doors opening onto the deck - the sound of the surf lulls you off to sleep. The second bedroom has a set of bunks plus a trundle bed. The open-plan lounge/dining/kitchen area spills out onto two decks - a west-facing BBQ courtyard and a large north-facing deck.

The kitchen is well-equipped with a dishwasher and rustic island bench. The bathroom is tidy (though small) and there is a hot shower outside if there's a queue!

For the energetic kids, there is a trampoline out the front - and for those that can't live without it, there is a TV with Sky. Experience shows that very few people end up watching it when they stay here.

Away from the hustle and bustle of the Mount, this Papamoa accommodation is still only 3km from Bayfair and Fashion Island - with a bus stop just down the road.

Beach, sun, surf......oh, pure bliss awaits you!
