Marina Cove Boutique Luxury Accommodation

The Property — A haven of coastal luxury with spectacular views

Set high upon a cliff in Opua, just a 40-minute flight or 3.5-hour drive from Auckland, with jaw-dropping vistas towards English Bay, Marina Cove Boutique Luxury Accommodation is a secluded, self-contained oasis. Soak up panoramic ocean views from this elegant boutique hotel on New Zealand’s North Island and be perfectly placed to discover Bay of Islands’ sub-tropical paradise of 144 unspoilt dots in the sea.

Surrounded by hidden coves, pristine waters and picturesque coastal tracks, a stay at this hideaway is a luxurious retreat from everyday life. With 60sqm of coastal-inspired space, a private furnished deck affording 180-degree vistas over the sparkling ocean, and a fully equipped self-catering kitchen, these coastal apartments remain a secret haven for those in the know.

From this hidden retreat, you’ll be perfectly placed to discover Lemons Bay or English Bay — perfect for swimming — and the Opua to Pahia Coastal Walk — a dog-friendly, eight-kilometre stretch of coast-hugging pathway boasting striking sea views that’s a favoured pastime among the locals. If you’d like to explore the local area, head to town and stroll through The Old Packhouse farmers’ market. Open on weekends, this market hosts a variety of stalls showcasing delicious food, spectacular wines and locally made handicrafts.

Your Handpicked Inclusions — Daily continental breakfast, gourmet local snacks, a welcome bottle of NZ wine and daily parking

First on the agenda: crack open the welcome bottle of New Zealand red or white wine on your private furnished balcony and watch the sunset over the harbour.

Every morning of your stay, indulge with continental breakfast in the comfort of your self-contained apartment. Enjoy an array of locally sourced items such as homemade muesli, seasonal fruit, yoghurt, honey, jams and other condiments, as well as freshly baked bread or flaky pastries delivered to your personal ‘bakery box’ each morning.

Once during your stay, you’ll also get a taste of artisanal New Zealand with a gourmet selection of local produce and snacks.

With the Bay of Islands practically on your doorstep, complimentary daily parking will make exploration even more accessible — plus premium unlimited Wi-Fi is included in your stay to upload your holiday snaps.
