Untamed. Unfiltered. Unforgettable.

Welcome to Waipipi Beach, a hidden coastal gated sanctuary on the untamed shores of South Taranaki, where modern luxury meets raw natural beauty. Tucked between the rhythmic surf of the Tasman Sea and a serene, private lake, this extraordinary home isn’t just a property. It’s an experience, one that begins with sunrise glinting off the water, and ends with golden light bathing a freestanding tub as you soak beneath an endless sky. Architecturally designed by Slate Architecture and crafted in collaboration with my Vendors, every line of this contemporary lodge has been carefully considered to frame nature, not just as a backdrop, but as a part of daily life. From the outside, the lodge blends nicely into its surrounding landscape through the combination of black smooth and woodgrain BCG Duragroove and extensive joinery that captures uninterrupted sea and lake views, while three generously sized bedrooms offer direct access to the expansive deck. Every room invites the outdoors in, creating seamless flow and effortless serenity. Inside, refined comfort meets effortless style. From the designer kitchen and gas fireplace to the opulent freestanding bath, every element speaks of quiet luxury. Whether you’re entertaining on the deck or curled up with a glass of wine beneath starry skies, this is a space that adapts to your mood and your moment. Step outside to a lifestyle like no other. From early morning swims in the lake to fishing and surfing just steps away, Waipipi offers true freedom, for both body and soul. Adventurers will love exploring nearby cathedral caves and waterfalls, while the inland views stretch as far as Mt Ruapehu and Mt Taranaki on a clear day. This is more than a beach home, it’s a private coastal retreat designed to restore, reconnect, and inspire. No traffic. No noise. Just nature at its most breathtaking… and luxury at its most thoughtful. “Every part of this lodge was designed to let you relax and take in the magic of the coast.” Blacksands Oceanview Lodge has had extensive bookings since its debut on Airbnb, Booking.com and Bookabach, racking up five-star reviews and even a 2025 Traveller Review Award.. Whether you’re looking for a romantic retreat, a family escape, or a high-end investment, this home at Waipipi Beach offers something truly rare.
