Respite is about having a break

... whether it’s a planned break from
- home, the family and children,
- part of a transition from or to a hospital,
- a way of preventing increasing distress,
- or marriage/partnership crisis.
Respite is about giving people a chance to ‘recharge the batteries’ and focus on their very own wellness.

Respite is most beneficial when it is restful, peaceful and cosy. Pohutukawa Beach B&B close to Whakatane offers you time out and a rest you deserve and need. Here you can relax in the beautiful and peaceful setting overlooking the sea. Relax your body and mind. You will be away from your daily routine and all your obligations that might have stressed you. Here you can calm down, enjoy the nature around you, walk along the beach or in the bush or simply 'blob out' in the garden.

We offer additional time for counselling - this will help you to
- calm down quickly
- rethink and refocus
- recharge your energy
- and learn another way to handle crisis and stress in the future.
