Step inside to find a home where simplicity meets tranquility. The living area is open and inviting, with large windows that bring the greenery of the outdoors inside, creating a serene atmosphere, unpack your bags and settle in. Keep in touch with friends back home via the high-speed WiFi that makes staying connected easy and reliable. Each of the three bedrooms is designed to offer a restful retreat. With cozy bedding and a laid-back atmosphere, it’s easy to wind down after a day spent exploring Tauranga’s natural beauty. Close to the water with wonderful views out to the city in Welcome Bay, there are many great parks and reserves enjoyed by the community. Further, immerse yourself in Welcome Bay Hot Pools, heated by earth's geothermal energy and enriched with minerals. The tracks in Johnson Reserve follow streams, wetland areas, native bush and open grassed areas. Check out Kaiate Falls cascading to a spectacular fall and pool at the end of the walk, just a 30-minute drive from Tauranga. Striking the perfect balance between relaxation and connectivity, Fernwood Escape is a great home away from home! Please note a bond may be charged at certain times of the year. One of our team members will contact you if this is required for your booking.

The largest and fastest growing City in the Bay of Plenty, Tauranga is your hub for day and night activities.

And make sure to look out for the Hairy Maclary bronze statues near the waterfront for the kids! Just a 15 minute drive to the idyllic Mount Maunganui beach, and a 35 minute flight from Auckland or 2.5 hour drive.
