The property
Just moments from the golden sands of Whitianga, The Retro Shack offers that classic Kiwi bach feeling—simple, relaxed, and effortlessly close to everything you love about a Coromandel getaway. Step outside to a welcoming outdoor space perfect for long, lazy afternoons. Enjoy a BBQ dinner at the picnic table, rinse off after the beach under the outdoor shower, and settle into a calm evening as the sea breeze drifts through. Inside, the cosy living area invites guests to unwind with a book, board game, or a movie on the Smart TV. The dining area sits comfortably between the lounge and a well-equipped kitchen, making mealtimes easy whether you're brewing a morning coffee or preparing a relaxed holiday spread. Two inviting bedrooms ensure a restful stay—one with a queen bed, the other with two king singles, ideal for families or friends travelling together. The tidy bathroom features a shower, toilet, and basin, while the bach also includes handy extras like a washing machine, heaters, cooling fans, and all the essentials for an easy, comfortable holiday. With the beach just a short stroll away, guests can spend their days swimming, exploring rock pools, or soaking up the sun. Whitianga’s town centre offers great cafés, boutique shops, and the famous Lost Spring Thermal Pools, while nearby beaches and coastal tracks make this the perfect base for discovering the best of the Coromandel.
Please note a bond may be charged at certain times of the year. One of our team members will contact you if this is required for your booking.
About the location
Discover Whitianga – the largest town on the Coromandel Peninsula, just 2 hours and 45 minutes from Auckland. This vibrant coastal hub blends relaxed seaside charm with a wide range of activities and city-style amenities. Enjoy top-tier fishing charters, unwind at the luxurious Lost Spring Spa, or explore the sparkling waters of Mercury Bay by kayak, scenic flight, or boat tour. The local dining scene is a treat, especially for seafood lovers, and forest walks offer a tranquil escape just minutes from town. Whitianga is also the perfect base for visiting Coromandel icons like Cathedral Cove, Hahei, and Hot Water Beach.
