Qualmark for Cable Bay Accommodation
Striving to give everyone who comes to Golden Sand that experience of retro beach living we enjoyed as children coming here, has been rewarded.
The simple things we enjoyed as children - frolicking in the waves, leaving your initials or creation in the sand or having that rock adventure walk and finishing the day with a simply delicious fish and chip meal are some of the things valued in Doubtless Bay.
With no pretensions, Golden Sand Beachfront Accommodation, offers views of the never ending ocean from retro furnishings like Grandma used to have. There are usually golden sunrises and flourishing sunsets , followed by acres of stars in the Owhetu sky. You will be lulled to sleep with the soft waves whoosh and live the simple life a few jandalled steps from the shelly beach.
Recently inspected by the Tourism New Zealand Business Advisor, he has awarded Golden Sand a 4 plus Qualmark award plus the Silver Award for Tourism Sustainability. This is a great achievement for this small holiday accommodation business in Doubtless Bay.
"Brian and I and the team are very proud to achieve this milestone for a local tourism business," said Rosemary. "We could not have achieved this without the unflagging support of our devoted staff."
Be sure to check out small but with loads of interesting features, Cable Bay or Owhetu, when you venture North.

Outstanding slice of paradise Such a beautiful spot with a very relaxed beachy feel. Shower was outstanding and we loved how everything was there for cooking and it felt like being at home. We left feeling refreshed and wish we could have stayed longer. Thank you so much!
