    An absolutely stunning place to stay. Beautifully presented with everything you could want for a break away. So close to the beach but private as well. We will definitely be back.

    Breakfast was fantastic. The motel was pretty, had red touches here and there. Right on the beach, great.

    Great location right on the beach. Lovely bathroom and products gave a sense of luxury. We would have loved use of the large deck if the weather had been better. Very comfortable beds, cool retro feel.

    The te reo greeting on the door was beautiful. The host was fabulous. We left something behind and she informed us before we even realised. Then was super helpful in enabling us to arrange collection. Very grateful.

    Gorgeous retro, clean styly place! Beach location was fantastic. Unfortunately we were there in a wild storm!! But were cosy and the roar of the sea was a sight to behold!

    We loved the retro vibe and all the little extra details that made it feel comfortable. It was also lovely that Rosemary popped in to see if we had everything we needed. We can't wait to plan another stay ( for longer next time!)

    The property consists of about 10 apartments above the rating. Some were two-story. We lived in a detached house with a large wooden veranda. There was a table and chairs on the veranda. The apartment consisted of a living room, a well-equipped...

    Total beachfront. Sitting in the lounge you can see sea, and hear it. Beautiful pohutakawas line the beaches. Tasty eateries all around. Hosts helpfully left information on local attractions.

Company information

We have tried to create a relaxing happy place where people wish to return to. I remember fondly holidays in a simple 'bach' at Cable Bay in my childhood at this very beach and our dream is to create an experience you will not forget - a slice of kiwiana that is largely gone - but not forgotten!

Property information

Cable Bay Stays - Golden Sand Beachfront Accommodation is located on the more private end of Cable Bay - the best kept secret of the Far North of New Zealand! The sand is pinkish with many shells, the swimming is safe and it is where many happy beach memories are made. We want you to take a trip back in time to experience this magical kiwi place. We have only four accommodation villas. Two 2 bedroom apartments for families and groups; and 2 honeymoon suites for couples. Each apartment or suite is self catering and self contained with modern facilities but with cute 1960s retro feel modern tiled bathroom, kitchen or kitchenette. You will probably remember some of these from your childhood - or grandma's house. Enjoy!

Neighbourhood information

Cable Bay is a small exclusive beach in a string of amazing beaches on the calm East Coast of Northland. We believe the Far North has the best beaches of NZ - but we may be biased. There are four parts to Cable Bay: the main beach in front of the best ice cream shop in NZ where the surf is great for swimming; little Cable Bay, a horseshoe bay with rocks on either end with smaller regular waves; the secluded rock pool area in front of the apartments, with fewer waves, great for a dip & for babies and children to explore or fisherman to try their luck from; and finally the high tide "lagoon" where it is shallow for a long way out for the less confident swimmers to run and play in the surf. Everywhere there is soft sand to sculpt into castles and mermaids, & beach to stroll along and comb for shells. A magical place you must visit.
