The Neighborhood:
Pākawau is a small coastal settlement at the northern end of Golden Bay, approximately 14 kilometres north of Collingwood.

The Old School Café is nearby, while Collingwood is approximately 15 minutes away by car and offers cafés, shops and departures for Farewell Spit tours.

The bathroom does not have a conventional enclosed layout. The shower shares the laundry area, the vanity is in the hallway leading to the king bedroom, and the toilet is in a separate room. There is one shower and one toilet. Beach access is via outdoor steps descending from the garden, and the beachfront boundary is not fully fenced, so children should be supervised near the water.
