Beautiful setting for a family get-away
We loved our stay at Wharepuni. It accommodated our family well, with many bedrooms and space for everyone. The setting was idyllic and the property is conveniently located to Oakura township and local beaches. I definitely will recommend it to others looking for a quiet escape.

Everything we hoped for in our Taranaki get-away
A perfect spot from which to enjoy the beach, have adventures around the Taranaki region or simply hang-out at "home". There was everything we needed for our family of five, with a range of ages and requirements, to have a relaxing and comfortable holiday. Thank you for making it so easy and for the friendly communications. We hope to return soon!

Planning our next stay already!
We came to Oakura for a surf trip and the house is perfectly located along great breaks. The property is beautiful and spacious with a big yard and comfortably slept a group of 7. We ate at the Butlers Reef and Black Sand Pizzeria while here and highly recommend. The only downfall to the stay was that the shower temperature is quite finicky but that was minor in the grand scheme of things. Overall we loved our stay and will be returning in the future.
