Kihi Retreat - Ruakaka Holiday Home

A modern bach popping with colour - get ready to relax and escape to some peace and quiet. Welcome to The Kihi Retreat!

Make the most of the downtime with your group or family from the bright and well-appointed open-plan living with big floor-to-ceiling windows and doors that open wide out onto the spacious outdoor sundeck.

Set yourself up on the deck for alfresco summer living when the weather is warmer. Fire up the BBQ and lounge out in the sun around the outdoor dining area. Or in winter unwind indoors, with a second TV lounge available for everyone to spread out in.

The Kihi Retreat is a 3-bedroom Ruakaka holiday home with WiFi, the large master bedroom has its own ensuite and opens directly onto the deck. Everything you need for a refreshing and memorable stay is on hand.

Enjoy this coastal town, with the stunning stretch of white sand and crashing waves of Ruakaka Beach and Bream Bay just a short walk from your front door. Just a 2-minute drive from the local store and restaurants if you need supplies or feel like venturing out for a meal. When you feel like exploring, this is a great location to explore Whangarei and the Tutukaka coast.

The Kihi Retreat is ready to host your amazing getaway!
Please note a bond may be charged at certain times of the year. One of our team members will contact you if this is required for your booking.
