🌦️ Coromandel Weather Update – Rooftops Accommodation

Hi everyone! Just a quick update after last week’s wild weather:

We were very lucky, the property had no damage and everything is safe, sound and dry. We’re open as usual and ready to welcome you.

We know lots of people across the Coromandel weren’t so lucky, and our hearts go out to everyone dealing with flooding and clean-ups.

For anyone traveling this way, the road from Kopu via Tairua to Whitianga is open but please take care on the road.

☀️ Whitianga weather for the coming days: mostly sunny, warm, and pleasant with just the occasional light shower. Daytime temps will be around 23‑24 °C, perfect summer weather!

If you have any questions about travel or your upcoming stay, just give us a shout, we’re happy to help.

We can’t wait to see you in Whitianga!
