5 Bedroom House in Awakino

""Best view in Mokau""
Upgraded Kiwi Bach , 5 Bedrooms, 2 Bathrooms, (Sleeps 12)
Fabulous South and West views over Mokau Beach all the way past White Cliffs to Mt Taranaki, which our builder claims has the "Best view in Mokau". Stroll on spacious, wild and exhilarating black sand beaches with bleached driftwood and big surf. Warm and very cozy whatever the season and love the Sundowners ! You really won't want to go home.

Summary: We absolutely loved our stay at Mokino. The location is incredible, with stunning views and a fantastic trail that leads straight down to the beach. It was a perfect place for us and our doggies, and we really appreciated how pet-friendly and welcoming it was.Richard was wonderful to deal with and very helpful with any questions we had. The bach is also conveniently close to the beautiful Three Sisters Walk, which was a real highlight for us. And the views… truly breathtaking — you never get tired of them!We highly recommend Mokino and would happily stay there again.
