The comfortable studio consists of a 3 separate spaces: living/kitchenette, bedroom and bathroom finished in a simple, stylish, natural interior.
Directly outside the bedroom and living area is a spacious, private outdoor living area with a tropical garden vibe.

Just a few minutes’ drive away is beautiful Waihi Beach with 9 kilometers of glorious surf beach to enjoy and explore. Pop on your walking shoes and head over to stunning Orokawa Bay or scamper up ‘The Trig’ and be rewarded with breathtaking views. Waihi Beach village has everything you may need: cafes, shops and a Sunday market. Nearby historic Waihi and the Karangahake Gorge offer bush walks, gold mine, a cycle trail and a steam train.

Small studio unit that is very well set out with everything that we needed. The outdoor room and the patio area is a lovely bonus. Easy walk along to the water views. We did find the winter bed linen hot. A good short stay stop.

Smart little tiny house. The only downside of its design is that I kept catching my shoulder on the edge of the wall-mounted TV - poorly thought out by the designers: should have been mounted on the other side of the window.

Wonderful location and delightful cottage
Perfectly sized for two of us. The right amount of space to snooze, read, eat and walk from. The beach at Waihi Beach was lovely and we enjoyed local yoga and massages. A very relaxing holiday.

Great weekend getaway
This is a very clean and tidy little property with everything I needed for a self-catering stay. Athenree is an extremely peaceful and laid back place, de-stress was instant. Very friendly and responsive hosts, before and during my stay. Loved the hot pools down the road.
