Oakura Apartment | Charming Hideaway in the Heart of Oakura

2 Bedroom Apartment in Oakura

Head down the feijoa-lined driveway, bordered by the tranquil Oakura river, vibrant green rolling hills and the remarkable Mount Taranaki. You're in the heart of Oakura, yet you feel miles away.
Park in the guest park and walk through to your peaceful and secluded oasis. Take in the melodic bird song of the birds frolicking in the surrounding vast native bush and the river gently flowing out to the ocean. Sit back, relax and unwind in your own little slice of paradise.
From the sunlit, private covered deck, step into the rustic, cabin-like guest suite with a small living area on the right, dining area in the middle and queen bed at the edge of the room. Put your feet up and read a book on the bed, basking in the warm sun that pours through the large window and French doors.
The eclectic décor and quality guest provisions makes it feel like a home away from home and your friendly and responsive hosts have tried to anticipate everything that you may need during your stay, leaving you feeling well-looked after and taken care of.
Head through to the well-appointed bathroom (see note below about bath/shower) and through to a quaint second bedroom with a single bed and room for a portacot if required. In here, you'll also find a range of books and board games to keep you entertained during your stay.
After a bite to eat at one of the delicious nearby restaurants (or perhaps a BBQ dinner in), slide into the luxurious outdoor bath under the twinkling fairy lights and see if you are lucky enough to spot a full moon or shooting star.
Snuggle up on the couch with a cozy blanket and watch a movie with a cup of peppermint tea and some biscuits. When bedtime calls, slip into the crisp cotton bedding and get lulled to sleep with the soothing call of the resident ruru (native morepork).
After a deep and restful night's sleep, wake up with a cup of fresh Proof & Stock coffee or Tea Total tea and enjoy a serene shower under the rainfall showerhead of the outdoor shower before you start your day's adventures.
This insta-worthy, magical hidden-gem is perfect for an affordable romantic getaway, weekend retreat or small family adventure, with everything Oakura has to offer on your doorstep and within walking distance.
Other details to note:
1) There is no indoor bath/shower in the bathroom - both of these are outside on the private deck.
2) Guests should expect some noise from the main house upstairs, although the hosts do their best to minimise this.
3) The broader property borders the main road in and out of Oakura, so some road noise is to be expected.
4) Guests will have exclusive access to the guest suite and lower deck. They may see hosts in the lower garden for maintenance, however, they will try and minimise their time there as much as possible during your stay.
5) There is a $30 cleaning fee in addition to the nightly rate.

Summary: We spent 5 wonderful nights here and it was the perfect base for our adventures! The location is great, close - but not too close to New Plymouth and the local cafe is only 3 minutes walk away for that much needed early morning caffeine kick start. We eally enjoyed the outdoor shower, its cute, feels adventurous but has all the privacy that you need. The hosts are great, attentive but not intrusive. We had a great time here and would love to go back again one day, maybe for WOMAD 2025!
