Escape to Casa Playa de Los Osos (The Beach House of the Bears)
Welcome to your private sanctuary. When you book Casa Playa de Los Osos, you get exclusive use of this entire 3-bedroom holiday home, complete with panoramic ocean views, a full family bathroom, and a convenient extra toilet.
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 expansive timber deck, and watch the sun set over the sweeping coastline of Doubtless Bay.
You haven’t just booked a vacation rental; you’ve arrived at a classic Kiwi holiday home that perfectly blends relaxed coastal charm with the modern, premium perks you actually need.
Hosted by "The Bears"
Welcome to our personal haven. As your hosts, Paul & Darryl (aka "The Bears"), we designed this home as our ultimate escape from Auckland life. It’s not a sterile hotel; it’s a home filled with art, character, and the things we love most: excellent coffee, spectacular views, and total relaxation.
Why Guests Love Staying Here
The Ultimate "Work-from-Paradise" Setup: Need to check in with the office? We’ve installed uncapped 1GB Fibre Internet—blazing fast and highly reliable for Zoom or Teams. With the ocean sparkling in the background, it’s the best office view you’ll ever have. It is the perfect remote work base for professionals or locums working at Kaitaia Hospital.
