Great spot. The Honey Loft was a great place to relax. Beach access across the street. Quiet. OK, you could hear the waves breaking, but that was nice.

Fabulous Find at Ohiwa Beach

We stayed in the Honey Loft, a beautiful open space that was well appointed and tastefully furnished. We loved spending time on our private deck with views of the ocean. The beach was an easy walk across the street and one of the most private and glorious stretches of sand and azure water that I have ever seen. Our host, Stephan, was helpful and accommodating. It was a place I would go back to in a heartbeat.

Wished we could have stayed longer than 1night. Stephan greeted us when we arrived and went through a few things. Gave us a great recommendation for dinner, and was very friendly. The property itself was amazing!! The view from the deck is breathtaking!! Highly recommend!!

What a cute, remote, little place this is! All you hear are the rumble of the waves and look out on the vista of the Bay of Plenty and Whakari/White Island. Highly recommend. If you're in need of supplies, Opotiki is a 10 minute drive away otherwise, enjoy the wilderness. Fully equipped unit to spend time away from it all.

Host disputed the room rate agreed through Expedia , wanted additional payment Never had this issue with any other accommodation booked through Expedia Host had this booking from Dec 14 2023 and only when we arrived did it become an issue Driveway is extremely steep and difficult to reverse into , especially when two other cars already parked The loft bedroom has an exterior bathroom , which entails going outside across walkway in middle of night if needed

What a gem! We had the Honey suite included a private patio with view. We could see and hear the Ocean which made all the stresses of the day dissolve away. Short walk to beach. Unit came equipped with a small kitchen, couch and comfortable bed. Only two other units on site so lots of privacy.

The property is off the beaten track but only a short drive to Cafes and supermarket. Across the road from Ohope Beach with it's sands, dunes and sea only a 100m walk. Beautifully rustic self contained room, well appointed, clean and tidy for a restful stay. Perfect stopover or escape from the hustle and bustle.

Cool little getaway, host very welcoming. pretty close to amenities and a picturesque drive. the room wasn't what I expected as I didn't see this in photos when I booked. bit gutted as we thought we were getting a bath, room was pretty dated, TV was terrible. Room had basics for cooking and underfloor heating in bathroom was handy.
