3 Bedroom House in Wainui

Step into a world where the glistening waters of Akaroa Harbour are at your doorstep. Piwakawaka Retreat is a sun-drenched haven that feeds the soul with views that wash away the everyday. Our waterfront sanctuary blends relaxation with adventure; whether exploring rock pools, the sandy swimming beach, fishing on the glassy water, or unwinding on the deck watching sailboats and Hector's dolphins. The perfect base to explore Banks Peninsula, or haven to watch the light change over Purple Peak.
Your Space & Comfort:
Inside, is the recently updated, sunny open-plan living area, flowing seamlessly onto a spacious deck where the spectacular harbour views unfold. As the weather shifts, so does the scenery, creating an ever-changing masterpiece right before your eyes. For those cooler evenings, especially during a classic South Island winter, a powerful heat pump and a crackling log burner create a cosy, warm atmosphere. Settle in with a selection from our library of books and games, or watch a movie on the wifi connected smart TV.
When it's time to rest, three comfortable bedrooms await. Choose from a spacious king, a serene queen, or the fun bunk room with single bunk beds. To keep you extra warm on chilly nights, the king and queen beds are fitted with electric blankets. We provide fresh sheets and towels for two guests with every stay, just let us know if there are additional guests when booking and we will ensure the place is well-equipped for your arrival.
