Family Fun Beach Holiday House

Ngairini Rating, 5 stars1 week ago
Morgan was helpful. The house in its heyday would have been a bustling, family home, now filled with 'ghosts of families past'. It is old but big, full kitchen; internal garage very useful. Keys in locks, wouldn't turn but her Mum came & got the door open thankfully. Lounge pictures spooky, not attractive; suggest changing them up to make it more welcoming. I appreciated the filtered H2O & the Mothers kindness of coming over & making the gate dog safe. Yes, 15 min walk to big Manly beach. It is a beautiful beach! It is in the burbs, a house in a street, not on the beach, as you may think when reading the ad, but not far! You will hear neighbours doing their thing as have houses behind, front & next to you; some very close. A/c is the saving grace as the white noise blocks noise out & keeps the temperatures comfy. A bit dusty/musty outside & in garage but inside kept well & clean thanks to Mama bear I am sure! Nice tree filled street. Close to shops/restaurants. The stay suited our need

HannahRating, 5 stars2 months ago
We really enjoyed our stay. The unit is situated in a very quiet suburb with beautiful morning sunshine and seaviews. It was very clean and comfortable...my very tall husband appreciated the extra height of the shower too! Sheryll was a thoughtful host who went above and beyond to make our stay a special one. Would happily stay again and highly recommend.

We stayed here for our babymoon, and it was absolutely perfect! The incredible views were breathtaking and made our trip so relaxing and memorable. We kept thinking to ourselves how fortunate we were to have the view! Waiheke is awesome and waking up to such stunning scenery each morning so restful. The hosts were so warm and friendly—they went above and beyond to make sure our stay was special. Their communication was excellent from the start, making check-in and planning seamless. They made us feel so welcome and cared for throughout our visit. If you’re looking for a peaceful getaway with amazing views and wonderful hosts, this is the place to be! We can’t recommend it enough. Thank you for making our babymoon unforgettable!

Luxury Bay Vacation Home with 5 Ensuites

PriyankaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Wow! What an absolutely magical and beautiful place to stay! The place itself is much bigger than it looks in photos and was absolutely spotless. Each bedroom was incredibly spacious, had it's own kitchenette (which was particularly helpful for parents of little ones they didn't need to come downstairs to the kitchen to make a bottle as everything could be done in their room), had it's own ensuite which is an absolute bonus and is situated in a peaceful area great for walks. Howard was absolutely fantastic with his clear and helpful instructions which were prompt and responsive. What a gold mine to have found in whangaparoa! We will absolutely be back again! Highly HIGHLY recommend!

Your guide to Leigh

All About Leigh

Lush, tree-covered hills descend into clear, blue-green waves on the outskirts of Leigh, a tiny fishing community an hour north of Auckland on New Zealand’s North Island. People come here to swim, scuba dive, and surf in the pristine and inviting waters. Leigh is also renowned for its glass-bottomed boat rides offering enchanting views of the marine ecosystem.

If you prefer to stay on land, the panoramic hike along the Goat Island Walkway takes you through lush fields and broadleaf forests, with views of Hauturu or Little Barrier Island nature reserve. The hidden coastal community has a low-key atmosphere with local fisheries, a general store, a dive shop, coffee shops, and restaurants serving comfort food.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Leigh

The North Island sees only mild temperature swings between the seasons, so it’s comfortable to spend time outdoors in Leigh all year round. The ocean warms up at the beginning of summer in December, and the area experiences its highest temperatures during February and March. This is the optimal time to stay in a vacation rental at Leigh, as the surrounding vegetation is at its greenest. The sea is comfortably warm in summer, so you can enjoy surfing, swimming, and other water sports. During the winter months, from June through August, Leigh sees chilly and damp weather conditions, but nothing extreme. You can still enjoy adventures in the ocean, when the cold water accentuates the thrill of skiing, surfing, and diving.


Top things to do in Leigh

Scenic Glass-Bottomed Boat Rides

Several operators along the Leigh coast offer tours on glass-bottomed boats, which give an intimate experience of sailing across the sea while peering down at all its denizens. Some boats are made entirely of transparent materials and offer once-in-a-lifetime views of the ocean floor, reefs, and caves. You can even rent a clearyak (transparent kayak) and take a solo tour.

Goat Island Marine Reserve

Just to the north of town, the Goat Island Marine Reserve is a prime destination for marine enthusiasts. Grab your snorkel gear (or rent some), swim with the fish, and then walk to Pakiri Beach. Amid the kelp forests and sandflats in these protected waters, you’ll find a wide variety of marine life, including dolphins, orcas, and fur seals. At low tide, you can wander along the rocks at the shoreline, scouting out tide pools.

Fishing

Leigh’s economy relies heavily on its fishing industry, and casting a line can be a laid-back recreational activity for visitors as well. You can rent fishing gear or even a boat in town, get some light snacks, and head out onto the water.
