The Publican's offers the best location, with less than a minute's walk to the beach and Whitianga town centre. With 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, our holiday home comfortably sleeps up to 11 people. Great for families and larger groups. Self-serviced accommodation with fenced lawn, BBQ, hot outdoor shower (great for sandy kids and divers!), kayaks and super close to the Whitianga Wharf + Ferry. Free Wifi, gas hot water, heat pump, open fire, linen and towels provided. The outdoor patio and lawn is fantastic for those long summer nights, backyard cricket and alfresco dining! For the boaties - we have plenty of space to park boats, fish cleaning bench and a bait freezer can be provided. Prime location right next to Four Square, Buffalo Beach Takeaways, Hula Cafe and a short walk to the Wharf, Ferry, shops, cafes, bars & The Lost Spring Thermal Pools. You have everything you need within a 5-10 minute walk! Enjoy the wonders of the Coromandel - Publican’s is perfect for your next Whitianga holiday! Linen and Cleaning services are included - kept clean and tidy by professional cleaners.
As a host, I'll leave you to holiday in peace but I'm always around if you need any assistance. With sound knowledge of the Coromandel Peninsula, I'm here if you need day trip advice or some local tips and tricks - please don't hesitate to ask! We want you to have the best stay possible.
Easy to walk everywhere. The beach is at your doorstep, along with the Wharf, Ferry, Whitianga Shops and town centre. The Lost Spring Thermal Pool and Day Spa Complex is a five minute walk away. Playground, esplanade and marina close by. Bike park and bush walks, beautiful bays and lookout points.
