The Sands Villa 28 - Onetangi Beachfront

Description

Set just steps from the white sands of Onetangi Beach, Villa 28 is a spacious three-bedroom, two-bathroom coastal home with wide, elevated sea views and generous indoor–outdoor living. With a bright open-plan layout and a north-facing deck overlooking the bay, this is a relaxed, easy space designed for long beach days and slow evenings outside. Villa 28 is arranged over two levels, keeping the main living areas connected to the view and the bedrooms private upstairs. The open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area sits on the ground floor and opens directly to the large north-facing deck. Wide bi-fold doors frame sweeping views over Onetangi Bay, filling the villa with natural light and making the outdoor area a natural extension of the living space. The deck is set up with outdoor seating and dining, ideal for relaxed breakfasts, slow afternoons, or simple dinners overlooking the water. Inside, the lounge has comfortable seating and a calm, beach-oriented feel. The dining area sits between the lounge and kitchen, keeping the whole level cohesive and easy to use. The kitchen includes full-size appliances, ample bench space, and everything needed for simple meals at home. A separate toilet is also located on this level for convenience. All three bedrooms are located upstairs. The master bedroom with its king sized bed looks straight out to the bay and includes its own ensuite bathroom. The second and third bedrooms each have queen beds and share a separate bathroom on this level. All bedrooms receive natural light and are set away from the living spaces, keeping the upstairs quiet and private. Guests also have access to shared gas BBQs within The Sands complex.
