Private Oceanview Escape Above the Beach | Cottage in Baylys Beach

Mawhiti Cottage sits quietly above sweeping ocean views and the soothing sound of waves, nestled into the landscape, becoming a secluded coastal retreat perched high above Northland's wild West Coast shoreline, designed for complete relaxation.
At night, fall asleep to the gentle rhythm of the ocean and wake to the sight of the sea stretching to the horizon.
'Mawhiti' is the Māori word for 'escape', and it perfectly captures the spirit of this special seaside hideaway. From the moment you arrive, the outside world feels wonderfully distant. Days unfold slowly with sea breezes drifting across the deck, while evenings bring spectacular Summer sunsets that wash the horizon in colour.
Start your morning with coffee on the sun-drenched deck as the ocean sparkles below, spend your afternoons exploring the surrounding coastline, or simply settle into the peaceful rhythm of sea and sky. As dusk arrives, the deck becomes the perfect place to unwind with a glass of wine while the sun sinks into the ocean and the sound of the waves drifts up from the beach.
The surrounding coastline is beautifully raw and unspoiled, where fresh sea air and coastal breezes create a setting that feels both invigorating and restorative, an authentic seaside experience that many guests find deeply refreshing.
For those who wish to remain connected, the retreat is equipped with fibre-optic internet, making it easy to work remotely. Many guests enjoy setting up their laptop on the deck and working with one of the most inspiring views imaginable. If you prefer, there is a simple study area for you to work from.
Golf enthusiasts will also appreciate the location, with the Northern Wairoa Golf Club just minutes away, offering both 9-hole and 18-hole rounds at very reasonable green fees. Golf carts are also available to hire.
To ensure that your getaway is as relaxing as it can be, we have a dishwasher, ice maker, tap water filter, air fryer, and everything else to make your stay as chore-easy as possible!
We love spending time at Mawhiti Cottage, and also love to share it with our guests. We hope for you it is place where time slows down, laughter comes easily, and every day feels wonderful.
Most of all, that your stay is truly unforgettable. We are delighted to share this much-loved coastal retreat with guests seeking peace, open space, and a memorable escape by the sea.
