Neighbourhood
The friendliest people in the bay, start chatting to them and most likely you will be invited over for a beer and bbq! There is no wifi but you can use data. You will also need to bring all your own food, necessities as the closest shop is 35 minutes away. Great bay for long walks on the beach, also Stony Bay for amazing coastal walks is only 9km away.
Getting to my home
You need your own car. The drive up the Coromandel is incredible, hugging the coastline with views. The last 14km or so are on an unsealed road, very windy and you need to take care. But so worth it!
Nearest airport
Auckland, about 3 hours away.
Getting Around
You need your own car.

Sue was really friendly and great to communicate with. Even though we didn't make it as planned we hope to visit your beach house and the Coromandel another time 😊 All the best and we look forward to hosting you and Craig in Sweden on your future travels!
It was a pleasure to host Sue, Cindy and Anna for a hospitality stay for a few days at our house in Katoomba. We enjoyed their company, and sharing drinks and stories with them. They were ideal guests!
So lovely to have Sue stay at our place. Came back to a very happy cat and everything was spotless. We can’t wait to get over to New Zealand for a visit, hopefully in 2026. Sue is welcome back anytime!
This exchange went well. Sue was a very discreet host. We had the pleasure of welcoming these travelers from far away... we wish them great discoveries in Europe.
Sue and her friends were the perfect houseguests. Communication was excellent and it was a really easy exchange to organise. The house was left spotlessly clean and the most amazing flowers were left on the bench. Thank you Sue, you are welcome back anytime!
What an awesome hospitality exchange with Faye and Michael. They were so welcoming, helping us decide which hikes to do, restaurants to go to. Best quizz night partner thanks Michael!
What a great little stay I had in Thirroul, their home is perfect and it was really kind to lend me their car while staying. I saw many birds, a few large lizards and of course Squiggy cat kept me company. Thank you Freya and family, we can’t wait to have you stay in NZ!
What a beautiful home and amazing views. It was an easy 15 minute walk to town . Thanks Kylee!
What a beautiful home, everything was perfect and we felt very welcome. The area around was interesting and we all felt grateful to have had the experience of a true french holiday, thank you Annie and Pascale
Natalie's plans changed so we didn't end up meeting them, but she kept us well informed and we really look forward to hosting them!
So lovely to meet Faye and Michael, hosted for a night at our farm before they headed off to our beach bach. Thank you for the yummy homemade marmalade, delicious! We look forward to catching up with you both in Katoomba next year.
What a fabulous short break we have just had, thank you Maggie and Aaron for your perfect home, it was warm, clean and inviting. A very good area to bike ride from too. I would definitely recommend an exchange with these lovely people!
