Vacation rentals in Sandy Bay

We really enjoyed our stay. It is a beautiful apartment with fantastic views. It was ideal for the five of us with a pleasant kitchen and dining room and comfortable decking area. It was well located with just a 10 minute walk to the walking path to Paihia or the car ferry to Okiato. A very nice spot.

Modern spacious bach with contemporary styling and comfortable furniture. Well equipped kitchen and lovely big dining table for eating and games playing. Two outdoor areas for eating/sitting at different times of the day as well and a pretty garden. Situated in a gated park with lovely planting and walkways towards the beach. We enjoyed the table tennis table in the garage and use of the communal tennis court. Adjacent to very pleasant walks through the bush to Whale Bay and around the headland back to Matapouri Bay. The walk to the beach is a good 7-10 minutes but it's a flat and quiet route. None of these properties are fenced so maybe wouldn't be a great choice with a toddler but for us with older children, it was perfect for our family weekend away.

Beautiful family home, perfect for holiday times. It had absolutely everything we needed. It is in a great handy location but peaceful and private. I would highly recommend. I will try and book again next year.

This was our summer holiday getaway and it totally lived up to all our family's aspirations for a memorable time away. We enjoyed the convenience of the cottage. The short walk to the beach and the amazing views from the deck. The cottage was comfortable and well appointed. The winning factor for this place - the hosts Sharon and Luke. They have thought of everything that makes a summer holiday beyond your expectations. From the kitchen essentials, beach towels, bbq and cosy lounge to the deck chairs and well maintained garden as the foreground for stunning sunsets. We would definitely recommend this place. Thank you for everything.

Beautiful view and great space to enjoy a family holiday. Hosts were very responsive and accommodating!

Absolutely stunning views. An easy walk to wharf area. Recently remodeled. Even nicer in person than the current photos on this app. We would stay here again if in the area.

Marg and Jan's place is in a beautiful surrounding. They were very friendly and happy to help out when required. The beds and couch were very comfortable. The pool is a great assess even though we didn't make a lot of use of it. Overall a great place to stay with many beautiful places in the area to explore.

We had the most wonderful relaxing stay in this beautiful, private apartment. The bed was so comfortable, the to-die-for views so soothing, the space and amenities so tasteful and with everything you need, and our perfect hosts made us feel so very welcomed and at home. Definitely 6 stars!

Fantastic location, property as described and perfect hosts, what more could you ask for, nothing, just the weather, and that was perfect too. The accommodation was just right for us and our two grandsons, 12 & 14 for our 3 night visit to the area. Russell & Michelle met us on our arrival and made us feel extremely welcome and comfortable in the surroundings. The accommodation was just right for that perfect sunset too, and we did get a photo or two. Local services were all good, takeaway food and eat in restaurants plus a new Four Square at Marsden Marina, only 5 min drive away. All in all we had a great time at Harbourside Getaway and would highly recommend to anyone looking to stay in the area. Many thanks to Russell & Michelle.
