Muriwai Sunset Self- Contained Sunset Studio | Walk to the Beach

Wake to tūī calling in the garden and sweeping views of Māori Bay and Muriwai Beach. This architecturally designed studio is perfect for couples or a small family. Enjoy coffee overlooking the ocean and a glass of wine outside as the sun sets right out front.

The beaches, surf breaks, Gannet Colony, bush walk, local café and playground are all minutes’ walk away—everything you need for a refreshing coastal escape. Kula’s sauna and ice baths are just a minute’s drive away too.

The space
Spacious and stylish, the studio is fully self-contained with a private bathroom, comfortable queen bed and relaxed living area. Doors open onto your own outdoor seating area and lawn, with beautiful views of both bays.

The well-equipped kitchen includes a large fridge, double sink, dishwasher, two induction hobs and an air fryer oven—ideal for preparing meals to enjoy inside or outdoors overlooking the ocean. A toaster, kettle, tea and coffee are also provided. Please note there is no conventional oven.

Ideal for a coastal escape for two, with two single trundler beds available for a small family and a portacot on request.

About the space

We’re a family with two children who live upstairs. We’ll always let you know at the time of booking whether we expect to be home or away during your stay.

The studio is private and self-contained, with its own entrance. When we’re home, you may hear footsteps from upstairs, or see us briefly in the shared driveway or front path. In November 2026, we added hallway underlay upstairs to help reduce sound transfer.
