The jewel in the crown of the iconic Pacific Apartments building – and the small collection of residential towers embracing the Mount Maunganui foreshore – this extraordinary property comprises 800sqm of luxury living.
What’s on offer here is not one but three exquisite penthouses being sold together. They encompass an entire level and showcase a 360-degree outlook that Bayleys salesperson Sharon Hall says must be experienced to be believed.
“The views are outstanding. You have this incredible outlook in virtually every direction, from the ocean and Mauao to Pilot Bay, the harbour, port and Kaimais. Words really don’t do it justice.”
A major recent renovation and upgrade of the tower has taken it to new heights, which is also reflected in the elegant interiors of the three spacious apartments. Floor to ceiling glass means the cinematic vistas are on display at every turn and the rooms are illuminated with natural light and sun.

With floor plans the size of, if not larger than, many standalone homes, these residences provide space to entertain and relax on a large or intimate scale and discerning buyers sacrifice nothing in terms of scale and level of quality.
At a colossal 441sqm, Penthouse 1001 features four ensuite bedrooms, a powder room for guests, expansive living areas plus a projector media room, multiple balconies to enjoy every aspect of the stunning views and two tandem car parks accommodating up to four vehicles.
Penthouse 1002 is 234sqm and consists of three bedrooms, including a master with ensuite, one bathroom, a separate powder room for guests, one multipurpose/media room, generous open plan living and two secure car parks.
Finally, at about 198sqm, Penthouse 1003 comprises three bedrooms, including a master with ensuite, one bathroom, a stylish powder room for guests, one multipurpose/media room, spacious living and two secure car parks.

Hall says what’s on offer here is of a truly international calibre and that there are very few opportunities like it available in the Mount.
“It is spectacular and buyers have options – you could have mum and dad live in one and the others available for family and friends to stay. To have eight car parks in total in that golden triangle is also very, very precious.
“There is potential to also generate income because the building is fully managed. The vendors have loved every moment, however are now taken to different shores.”
She also says, “it really is one of one and thanks to Plan Change 33, unlikely to ever be repeated. Today you couldn’t buy the land or get the consent – it’s almost priceless”.

Along with the penthouses themselves, Hall believes Mount Maunganui is an untapped paradise for international buyers.
While properties purchased via the golden visa have so far been focused more on Auckland and the Southern Lakes, it’s only a matter of time before its natural beauty, international coffee and culinary scene and relaxed beachy vibe will resonate.
“At some point, off-shore buyers are going to ‘click’ that Mount Maunganui is a destination with so much to offer in such close proximity. We’re effectively one flight away and we’ve got an airport that can accommodate ease of access including a private jet.”
66-68/8 Maunganui Road at Mount Maunganui, Tauranga, are for sale by negotiation.
