Breathtaking Bay Views | Walk to Coopers Beach

Escape to Casa Playa de Los Osos (The Beach House of the Bears)

From the moment you slide open the glass doors, the stress of the city dissolves. Shake up an espresso martini at your dedicated cocktail station, step onto the warm timber deck, and watch the sun set over the panoramic sweep of Doubtless Bay.

You haven’t just booked a rental; you’ve arrived at a classic Kiwi holiday home that blends relaxed coastal charm with the modern perks you actually need.

Hosted by "The Bears" Welcome to our personal sanctuary. As your hosts, Paul & Darryl (aka "The Bears"), we designed this home as our escape from Auckland life. It’s not a sterile hotel; it’s a home filled with art, character, and the things we love: good coffee, spectacular views, and total relaxation.
