    “I would like send a big thank you to the owner for the use of her wonderful home which brought both family and friends together.”

    We all thoroughly enjoyed our time there including our pets and found the location excellent ie. close to the beach. All our needs were catered for and my little grandson loved the baskets of toys and the playground. Thank you!

About the location

A 40-minute drive north of Auckland and you'll find yourself on the picturesque Whangaparaoa Peninsula. The area's name is the Maori translation for Bay of Whales, as often Orca whales and dolphins can be seen entering the peninsula. Dotted throughout the peninsula are many calm beaches safe for swimming especially if you have young kids with you. f you're a snow bunny, why not test out your skills at Snowplanet (New Zealand's only indoor ski slope) on your way if you're travelling from the CBD. All of our Whangaparaoa Peninsula holiday homes are pre-inspected prior to your arrival and are ready for instant online booking.
