Luxury Glamping Accommodation
Sandy Bay offers luxury glamping accommodation, perfect for romatic get-aways any time of the year.
When you think of glamping, you might picture warm summer evenings, long days at the beach and lying under the stars at night. But one of the best things about glamping in Northland is that you don't have to wait for summer.
At Sandy Bay, on the beautiful Tutukaka Coast, glamping is an experience for every season. Whether you're looking for a summer beach escape, an autumn retreat, a cosy winter break or a spring getaway surrounded by nature, the Awatuna Yurt offers a peaceful place to slow down and reconnect.
Spring: Nature Comes Alive
Spring is a beautiful time to visit the Tutukaka Coast as the days become longer and the landscape begins to burst back into life.
At the Awatuna Yurt, you're surrounded by nature. The property sits among mature tōtara trees, beside a stream where you can hear the gentle sound of water moving over the rocks. The area is also home to native birdlife and long-fin eels, adding to the feeling that you've escaped somewhere far removed from everyday life.
Spring is also a great time to explore the coastline on foot. Sandy Bay beach is only a short walk from the yurt, while nearby destinations including Matapouri Bay and Whale Bay offer even more opportunities to explore the spectacular Northland coastline.
Summer: Beach Days and Coastal Adventures
Summer is an obvious favourite for a coastal getaway, and Sandy Bay makes it easy to enjoy the outdoors.
The Awatuna Yurt is just a short walk to the beach, it makes it easy to start the day with a swim, surf or stroll along the coast.
The Tutukaka Coast is also ideal for getting active, with surfing, walking, cycling, paddleboarding, fishing and boating all nearby.
After a day of sunbathing or exploring, return to the tranquillity of the yurt, relax on the deck or soak in the outdoor bath while the evening settles around you.
Autumn: A Time to Slow Down
Autumn brings a different kind of magic to the Northland coast.
With the summer crowds easing, it's a wonderful time to explore the beaches and walking tracks at a more relaxed pace. Cooler evenings also make the yurt particularly inviting, creating the perfect excuse to spend more time enjoying the cosy interior.
Inside, the Awatuna Yurt combines the charm of traditional glamping with the comforts you want from a luxury getaway. There's a king-sized bed, quality cotton and linen sheets, a feather and down duvet, wool blankets, a comfortable sofa and armchair, and everything you need for a relaxing stay.
Autumn is perfect for those who want to get away from the busy pace of everyday life and simply enjoy some quiet time together.
Winter: Cosy Coastal Glamping
Winter might not be the first season that comes to mind when you think about a beach getaway, but it's arguably one of the most atmospheric times to experience a yurt.
Cooler weather makes the warm, cocoon-like interior of the Awatuna Yurt even more inviting. The canvas walls and timber latticework create a peaceful, intimate space where you can curl up with a book, enjoy a leisurely breakfast or simply listen to the sounds of nature outside.
The yurt also has a wood fire to keep you warm on cooler days and nights.
And there's something special about having the coast almost to yourself. Wrap up, head out for a walk along Sandy Bay, then return to the warmth and comfort of your private retreat.
Winter glamping isn't about packing your days full of activities. It's about slowing down, enjoying the scenery and making time to relax.
Luxury Glamping Accommodation Without Losing the Connection to Nature
One of the joys of glamping is having the best of both worlds.
You can enjoy the feeling of being immersed in nature without giving up comfort. At Awatuna Yurt, there's a king-sized bed, quality bedding, wool blankets, an undercover shower, outdoor bath, bath towels, bath salts and cooking basics.
The yurt is connected to the kitchen, bathhouse and outdoor bath by decking and boardwalks, creating a natural flow between the different spaces.
It's an ideal setting for couples looking for somewhere peaceful to escape, celebrate a special occasion or simply spend some uninterrupted time together.
