Very good location as from the deck, living area and bedrooms has great views of the sea across to islands in the Bay. Two minutes walk to the beach. Safe swimming there from mid-tide and a good playground for kids. Well located to explore other coastal areas and Matakana activities. Kitchen and BBQ worked well. Plenty of boxed games for kids and adults. Overall furnishings are typical of a 20th century beach house.

Classic kiwi Bach
Stayed here for a week with partner and friends. This Bach is very much your classic NZ Bach which does come across in listing and reflects the price as well. Excellent location close to the beach with everything needed to make stay comfortable. Some furniture and decor etc could probably be replaced to spruce it up a little but otherwise comfortable.

Great little 'kiwi bach'
This property is close to the beach and has sea views, you can even hear the waves from the house. It is wam and cosy. You can bring the children and the dog and not worry too much about bringing in sand or the children touching stuff, very laid back, pefect for a family holiday.
