Peace and quiet

Guests say this home is in a quiet area.
Escape to the tranquility of Kaitake Kabana, an off-grid studio retreat nestled in the foothills of the Kaitake Ranges.

Ideal for two, it’s perfect for couples seeking a getaway, but can sleep up to four guests with an additional floor mattress.

The bathroom and kitchenette are in a separate detached space.

There is no WiFi and limited reception, inviting you to switch off and embrace the serenity away from everyday life.

The space
This unique studio-style accommodation features a luxurious California king-sized bed.

Experience the magic of off-grid living in a peaceful rural setting surrounded by lush greenery. Step away from the daily grind and immerse yourself in nature, listening to the nearby creek while relaxing in the outdoor bath.

The outdoor fire pit invites cosy evenings spent stargazing and sharing stories under the night sky.

Situated at the foot of the Kaitake Ranges, you can explore nearby hiking trails, pristine beaches, and local attractions, or simply unwind in your private oasis.

Oakura village is just 3 minutes away, offering a Four Square, butcher, fish and chip shop, pub, and several cafés and restaurants. New Plymouth is a 20-minute drive.

Guest access
Guests have exclusive access to the property and surrounding areas, offering a true retreat experience and the chance to slow down and rest.

You’re welcome to stroll down the main shared driveway and out onto the road, however please be mindful that there are private residences located off the main driveway.

We kindly ask that you respect all private property and remain within designated areas during your stay.

Other things to note
This property is situated off a shared driveway. So, while mostly private, you may see the occasional car or person going past.

Please respect the Neighbours and the peacefulness by keeping loud noise to a minimum.

There is no wifi, no TV and not a lot of cell phone reception at the Kabana.

We are off the grid and rely on solar power, please be mindful of this if bringing any electronics.

Cooking is via the outdoor BBQ or a single gas burner inside on which you can use a frying pan, pot, kettle and camp toaster.
