Discover the Coromandel Like a Local
At Hosts on the Coast, we believe your holiday should be more than just a getaway—it should be an experience shaped by the unique charm and natural wonders of the Coromandel Peninsula. As proud locals, we’re passionate about sharing the hidden gems and iconic highlights that make this region unforgettable. Whether you’re after peaceful walks, geothermal wonders, or dramatic coastal beauty, our team is here to help you explore the very best of what’s on offer.
Hot Water Beach & Cathedral Cove – Our Backyard Icons
Two must-see experiences in the Coromandel are Hot Water Beach and Cathedral Cove—and we’re lucky to have them right in our backyard. At Hot Water Beach, dig your own natural hot pool in the sand during low tide, an activity that’s as fun for kids as it is relaxing for adults. Just a short drive away, Cathedral Cove offers a spectacular coastal walk leading to one of New Zealand’s most photographed natural arches. Insider tip: visit early in the morning or late afternoon to avoid the crowds and catch the golden light for photos.
