THE WATCH TOWER
10A/2 Marine, Marine Parade, Mount Maunganui
Conceived in the 1990s as the ultimate expression of apartment living, the prestigious Oceanside Luxury Apartments were designed to stand apart, offering residents a world of their own in a year-round holiday destination. From the outset, Oceanside was founded on enduring principles: investment security, exceptional lifestyle experience, and premium on-site amenities; all seamlessly connected to world-class leisure and recreation.
Today, following the completion of over $30 million in remedial enhancements to Oceanside Tower 1 (renamed 2 Marine to reflect the major upgrade), that original vision not only endures but shines brighter than ever. Positioned in a location that can never be bettered, 2 Marine remains a true Mount Maunganui landmark, an enduring icon of Oceanside apartment living for generations to come.
After 20 years under the same ownership, this is a rare opportunity to secure what is arguably the premier penthouse in the Bay of Plenty. An unmatched combination of prestige, position, and timeless appeal. Furnished and turnkey for your immediate enjoyment.

GARAGING
On the top/10th floor of 2 Marine, this apartment is one of two penthouses, 10A straddles the entire Westside of the building from North to South. Its premium position faces Mauao and celebrates the breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean and Tauranga Harbour (Pilot Bay) sides of the Mount Maunganui peninsula.
Absolute beachside living is enhanced with access to the tower not only via a main entry, but also via a separate gated entry with an outdoor shower, and with a direct connection to the newly equipped gym, refurbished sauna and heated 15m swimming pool. Revamped outdoor living spaces and new poolside furnishing create a locally unrivalled private beachside resort-like experience.
The ground level of 2 Marine houses a collection of eateries and a short stroll beachside, or down the main street, avails one of some of the best in local shopping and dining. The Mauao base track and summit walks, and the famous Mount Saltwater Hot Pools are on your doorstep.
Two lifts provide for the 10th floor foyer and its two penthouse apartments.
On entry to the apartment, double doors to the main living areas offer immediate, immersive ocean views. This area is divided into a large corner kitchen and island with new appliances, a new Pacific Quartz benchtop, and bright living and dining spaces.
Step up through a broad connection to the ocean view half of the apartment’s 111 m2 covered balcony space; an aspect of this apartment’s day-long and year-round lifestyle that has to be experienced to be believed.
Off the entry hallway or the ocean side balcony, the third bedroom is accessed. A shared bathroom separates this and the second bedroom, which is the first of the rooms with direct access to the harbour side balcony. Ocean side and harbour side balconies are cleverly separated by a walk-through storage room providing ideal space to support outdoor living with outdoor furniture, cushions and cleaning equipment easily to hand; keeping your balcony clutter-free and ready to enjoy.
The master suite and adjacent study occupy an indulgent amount of space. With their connection to the harbour side balcony, they provide a special retreat, and are a magical spot come sundown.
Easy living, full-time, or on weekends and holidays is assured by numerous thoughtful details such as a 10th floor rubbish chute, number plate-reading auto garage door, security cameras operating throughout, and the three secure basement car parks (two with storage) on offer.
The well run BC views the preservation and presentation of 2 Marine as a priority, protecting both your enjoyment and your investment. The exterior windows and balustrades are washed every 2 months, and the entire building exterior is washed once a year or more as required.
A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
