The most horrifying and traumatic stay we have had in the 14 years we've been using Book A Bach

The Host threatened us and put my wife in a life threatening situation. Our two young children have been left traumatised. We had to call the Police for advice and assistance. The Police assured us that the law is on our side. We had to do an emergency evacuation from the premises on 30 December 2022 after only 22 hours staying at the bach. We had to find alternative accommodation. Our booking was for 10 days and we had travelled from Wellington to Kerikeri for our annual family holiday. If you value your life, do not stay at this Bach. The Host has no regard for human life. This has been a horrific experience but we are very pleased to have made it out safe. We have made Book A Bach fully aware of the situation.
