About The Louise’s

The Louise's was born from the visionary spirit of two entrepreneurs who sought refuge in the enchanting seaside village of Piha, yearning to rekindle and connect with their wairua (living spirit).
Nestled within the owners' private 7 acre property, this remarkable 600sqm+ haven now opens its doors exclusively to only a handful of intimate events each year.

With unparalleled views guests can step beyond simply taking photos, but find themselves part of them. The positioning of the whare (home) is uniquely designed to transport its visitors into the panoramic picture.
Every corner reveals uninterrupted vistas of beach and bush, offering boundless space and intimacy, for comfort and exploration. Our venue is a testament to the invaluable experiences of our founders, who have witnessed countless ideas take flight, concepts stimulated, wellbeing nurtured, cultures come alive, and unbreakable bonds forged right here in the heart of Piha.

About Piha.

A haven of natural beauty, Piha boasts a famous black sand beach, rugged cliffs, and iconic Lion Rock. Surfers flock to its powerful waves, making it a surfing paradise (frequently hosting international competitions). The area is rich in wildlife, with opportunities for birdwatching and marine life sightings.

Piha has cultural significance for the Te Kawerau ā Maki iwi, with legends and history to discover. Adventure seekers can partake in activities like rock climbing and canyoning (on guided tours).

The village embraces arts and culture, with attractions like the West Coast Gallery, local cuisine and wellness options await. Located just 60 minutes from Auckland Central, Piha offers a perfect escape. With a population of just 1,000 permanent residents, whilst Piha swells to 20,000 in summer the 3km beach is never crowded and provides plenty of space to play. The friendly and welcoming locals add to its charm. Swimming at the beach is possible for experienced swimmers, and only between the flags for safety.
