My holiday home:
Welcome to The Lazy Jandal, a warm and cosy bach in beautiful Whitianga, just a short stroll from both Buffalo Beach and the town centre.
This charming four-bedroom home has everything you need for a laid-back getaway. The master bedroom features a queen bed and opens onto its own private deck – the perfect spot to enjoy your morning cuppa. Bedroom two also has a queen bed, bedroom three includes a set of bunk beds, and bedroom four is ideal for kids or extra guests, with another set of bunks plus a king single bed.
The main bathroom includes a shower, toilet, and a lovely deep bath – perfect for soaking after a day at the beach.
At the heart of the home is the open-plan living area, featuring a fireplace to keep you toasty in the cooler months, comfy couches, a flatscreen TV, and sliding doors that lead out to the deck. There’s also a dining table and a fully equipped modern kitchen – complete with a dishwasher, so no one has to fight over doing the dishes!
Step out onto the sunny deck, where you’ll find a BBQ, outdoor dining table, and a sun umbrella for those long, lazy afternoons.
There’s off-street parking for your car and even space for the boat, if you’re lucky enough to bring one. The fully fenced section means your furry friend is welcome too – just remember to clean up after them.
The Lazy Jandal is just a short walk to Buffalo Beach – perfect for a morning dip or a relaxing beach day. When it’s time to explore or grab a bite, the scenic walkway will lead you straight into town.
So, what are you waiting for? Pack the car, grab the dog, and head to Whitianga for your next beach break at The Lazy Jandal!
Your holiday world:
Whitianga is a popular holiday destination located on the Coromandel Peninsula. It is the gateway to some amazing beaches and scenery. Wandering the shops is a good start and if you get a bit peckish head to one of many delightful eateries whether it’s a pie and donut, or a sit-down lunch with a cold beverage. There are plenty of options. There is plenty to do for the kids as well with mini golf, movies, an awesome skatepark and kids’ playground, and of course, there is the Mercury Bay Museum. For adults, a trip to the Lost Springs Thermal Spa and Hot Pools is a great way to spend a couple of hours relaxing in tropical surroundings. If you make your way to the wharf you can catch the passenger ferry to Ferry Landing & take a walk over to Front Beach. Tour boats also leave from the wharf which can show you around the area and stop close to Cathedral Cove within the Marine Reserve, watch the fish, go for a snorkel, or take a cave tour. If fishing is your idea of a good time, there are plenty of Charters that can take you out. Or you could take a drive out to Hahei. From here you can take the 40-minute walk to world-renowned Cathedral Cove, or you can head to the beach where there is a water taxi that can take you. Hot Water Beach is not to be missed. At low tide dig a hole and you will have your own hot pool! Spades can be hired from the local store.
