About this property

Ever wanted to experience a geodesic dome? Less than 2 hrs from Auckland you can escape to this rustic glamping dome in a rural setting near the coast. Situated on top of a hill, there are amazing rural & sea views, thousands of stars in a clear sky, with outstanding sunrise and sunsets. The dome contains a gorgeous bedroom, lounging space, heater, & adjacent entranceway. Nearby is your own private outdoor composting toilet and luxurious shower.
The space is warm & cosy with amazing views of the ocean, islands & farmland, livestock, wild turkeys & surrounding hills. Amazing sunrises & sunsets too, all from your own private rustic glamping retreat!
Other things to note:
We are still working on this set-up, so it is fairly basic and not yet landscaped. There are also some finishing touches that we would like to add to the domes (e.g. better flooring, more fencing & an outdoor bath!), but for now the basic glamping amenities are available at a discounted price, so please bear with us!

During your stay at this campground, you'll be within walking distance of Ruakaka Beach. Enjoy your stay with amenities like a kitchenette and a stovetop in the accommodation.
