Holiday rentals with a kayak in Western Bay of Plenty District

Pahoia Beachstay - The Crab Hut

The Crab Hut is a simple cabin but with everything you need for the perfect getaway, a few meters from the beach (3-4 guests). Very tranquil with some home comforts (bathroom & small kitchen), but we like to call it 'Back to Basics’ in a good old kiwi style bach, as we are surrounded by nature! You can enjoy the sea views, the petanque court or borrow our kayaks … Get in touch if you want to book 1 night only, bring your dogs or add more guests. Please see other listings to rent both cabins.
