Escape to Ellas Estuary Retreat, a peaceful and private Mangawhai getaway situated at the waters edge.
With extensive views across the estuary and walkway access, Ellas is a wonderful place to slow down, relax and enjoy the surroundings. This spacious three-bedroom home offers plenty of room for families and groups to spread out and enjoy a relaxing Mangawhai stay.
The large main living area is complemented by sunny decks on both sides of the house, making it easy to enjoy the outdoor setting. Inside, youll find a well-equipped kitchen and a second living area, giving everyone plenty of space to relax.
During the cooler months, settle in around the open fire for a cosy evening at home. Coffee lovers are also well catered for, with an espresso machine and grinder provided. Just bring your favourite beans.
Sleeping arrangements:
Bedroom 1: Queen bed
Bedroom 2: Queen bed
Bedroom 3: Two sets of bunks, both with an additional trundle bed
Second living area Sofa/double bed
Everything you need for an easy stay and Wi-Fi and Freeview are available, plus there is plenty of room to park the boat.
Despite its wonderfully private setting, Ellas is conveniently located just a five-minute drive from local amenities.
Whether youre planning a summer holiday, a weekend away with friends or a cosy winter escape, Ellas Estuary Retreat offers space, privacy and a beautiful estuary setting to enjoy.
Come for the views, stay for the peace and privacy.
LINEN OPTIONS: To keep your holiday more affordable, for this property we offer linen as an optional extra for guests who prefer to bring their own. If you choose to bring your own linen, you will need to supply top and bottom sheets, pillowcases, towels and bath mats. Pillows, Duvets and Duvet covers will be provided.
Alternatively, a rental linen package is available for $25 per person. To request this service, please add a note to your booking specifying the number of people requiring linen and which beds you would like prepared.

Summary of reviewsLovely property with beautiful views of the estuary, well-equipped kitchen, comfy beds, and spacious lounge. Highly recommended for a relaxing stay.
10 / 10Outstanding·May 2026
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay of a week at Ella's. The house is clean and tidy, albeit a little tired, but homely in such a quiet, peaceful spot. Great outlook to the ever changing estuary.The kitchen is very well equipped with plenty of room to spread out. Comfortable beds and plenty of seating.Everything was similar to the online photos although the couches now have covers. Take your own laundry powder.Plenty of walking opportunities close by.Communication excellent with Bach Stay and they were very responsive to a small electrical problem that was fixed very promptly. Would definitely stay again.

A traditional bach, very tidy, lovely quiet position. Nice and spacious for our group of 4, kitchen was well stocked for cooking and great coffee machine. Extensive decks on both sides of the bach. Enjoyable stay.

Awesome place great location had everything we needed
6 / 10Average·Oct 2022
The house itself is good, plenty of room and in a nice location. I was a bit disappointed because the pictures gave the impression that there was water access from the property, which there wasn't.
Appliances and utensils were generally very old, while this is often the case for older style baches it did cause frustration not being able to find a remotely sharp knife.
