Find your slice of Paradise at Tui Lodge Oakura, Northland, New Zealand. Relax in quality accommodation at a very popular holiday destination in Northland. We provide a B&B option with a continental breakfast consisting of cereal, toast, spreads, fruit, juice, coffee and tea. Or you may decide to book the whole Lodge sleeping up to eight people (self catering meals). Tui Lodge B&B offers 3 spacious bedrooms perfect for couples and/or single travellers for short or long stays. Each room boasts heat pump/air conditioners, quality linen and Smart TV's. Our Fantail bedroom has an extra wide doorway for easy wheelchair access, and a wheelchair friendly wetroom bathroom. There is a fully equipped kitchen for all your cooking needs and uninterrupted indoor-outdoor flow between the deck and kitchen. Our drinking water is filtered with a UV light system installed to kill bacteria. Complimentary Wi-Fi is available with great cell phone coverage. Secure parking is available for the boat and vehicles. Comfy furnishings make the perfect environment for everyone to relax and unwind. The beachfront is a 2–3-minute drive, or 10-15 minute walk and is sheltered from large ocean swells by several outlying islands. At one end of the Bay is rugged coastline leading you around rocks to the mermaid pool, or might like to access the pool by using the walking track at the top of Rapata Rd. Ohawini is over the hill with access to the Bay via the beach at half to low tide. Take a picnic to the beach or enjoy takeaways from Skips Fish N Chips on the waterfront. There are lots of rock pools to explore, magnificent Pohutukawa trees to picnic under or just to seek shade. The local store provides groceries and fuel. Whangaruru Beachfront Camp situated at Parutahi Bay (between Oakura and Ohawini) also have a store that stocks grocery items.
Both Rob and Rene operate their B&B Lodge full-time all year round. They have lived in the area since 2017 and know the area very well.
Northland is one of New Zealand’s most popular holiday destinations and that’s for good reason. Taitokerau Northland is where the story of Aotearoa New Zealand began! It is a subtropical wonderland with white sandy beaches, secluded bays, great fishing, ancient kauri forests, and some of the most stunning scenic locations you’ll ever see. Base yourself at Tui Lodge in Ōakura and experience it all! Within 50 minutes, you’ll be in Whangarei where you will find all sorts of wonderful attractions – Hundertwasser Art Centre with Wairau Māori Art Gallery on the waterfront, the Adrenaline Adventure Water Park in Hikurangi, and unforgettable nature, wildlife and cultural experiences. You could travel further North and visit Russell, at a 45–50-minute scenic drive along the coastline. When there, you can catch the ferry across to Paihia.
