About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

DAVINAS - Beach-front Holiday Apartment

The apartment is located right on Coopers beach, elevated enough to see the incredible views across Doubtless Bay with a very short walk across the lawn straight onto the golden sand beach.

Located underneath the main house with its own private entrance; there are three bedrooms with 5 beds, one bathroom and a great deck to enjoy the views!
The apartment has a full kitchen and seated dining area, a BBQ or try the many nearby cafes and restaurants.

Kayaks, bodyboards and a paddleboard are available for sea-lovers, or stay on terra-firma and be king of the sand-castles, building your sand-mansion in the shade of the pohutukawa trees.

Coopers Beach Village (3min drive) has all the essentials for your holiday including a Four Square, Butcher, Beach Box Cafe, Thirsty Liquor, Pharmacy, Tackle Shop, Medical Centre and hair salon.

Or head in the other direction to Mangonui Village for arts and crafts, fabulous ice-cream shop (c'mon ice-cream nachos!), restaurants and cafes including the famous Mangonui Fish Shop.

Mill Bay boat ramp is 3 min drive - bring your boat and explore the harbour!

Davinas on the Beach is the perfect base to explore the Far North:
Day trip to Cape Reinga, Te Paki stream, 90 Mile Beach.
Explore the Kerikeri, Whangaroa, Paihia.

David and Ina (Davinas) built this property as their forever home. A special place to enjoy their retirement fishing, swimming, and spending time with friends and family. They added the unit downstairs to host their children and grandchildren for school holidays, birthdays and Christmas to make incredible memories at the beach as a family.

David and Ina loved sharing their little piece of paradise with people from all over the world so that people could create their own memories at Coopers Beach.

Their son, Brett now looks after the property and will be your Host during your stay.

Perfect Beach Holiday Getaway
The location was perfect in terms of access to the beach, shops, very peaceful setting and good springboard to other locations of interest in the area. The beds seemed a bit dated and could be upgraded to accommodate 2 couples. Overall we loved our stay there.

Lovely holiday home close to beach and local services - cafe, supermarket, butcher, etc. Gated deck area is a bonus for anyone traveling with a toddler, great range of books available that cater to a wide range of interests and ages, and the view from deck is the cherry on top.

A place to relax!
Very happy we found this gem in the Far North. 1 minute walk to a great family beach, beautiful views, a great base to explore Northland. The bach is the lower floor of a larger house but very private and well appointed. We would love to come back!
