Orewa beach used to seem like miles away when I was a kid, now it’s just a short stint on the Northern Motorway from the city and you have arrived in what you might think is paradise! The seaside township is now a thriving little centre with it’s stunning beach and amazing views. It’s also gateway to all of the vineyards and tourist activities north of Auckland so why not decide to overnight at a luxury apartment here. Kodmora Villa is Robbie and Rosita’s place and it is just stunning. Very modern and very immaculate, they have purpose built a boutique apartment as part of their new home. Guests share the entrance but can pretty much be self contained in their own villa. But who wouldn’t want to slink down to their dining room and indulge in a gourmet breakfast made by Rosita. Robbie used to be a Formula One driver so has a wealth of knowledge in this area, they are really nice people and perfect hosts. A couple of steps down from the house and you are on that magic beach, Orewa, where you can while the day away.
