About this property

2 Minutes walk to ocean beach or shops

A cozy well kept bach in a great position [2 sunbeds for that afternoon snooze] with the shops and beach a short stroll away. A family bach with all the mod cons and comforts of home. This bach has been in our family since 1949 and has been added on and modernised but retained the retro feel (we get a lot of feedback from people who love the kiwiana theme). It's got a large section with fruit trees and plenty of space for the children to play.
We love to see the bach being used by families as we remember wonderful holidays there growing up.
As this is a bach, we ask you to bring your own towels and linen, as we do when we visit. We also ask you do a reasonable clean before leaving.
Should you require linen to be supplied it would be $15.00 per person plus we can offer a excellent cleaning service at $50.00 for 4 people plus $10.00 for each extra. These services are paid separately and provided by our property manager.
Special conditions:
A great value cleaning sevice is available at up to $80.00 depending on condition left. Linen supplied at. $15.00 per person includes washing and ironing Sheets, pillow cases,towels and tea towel.

Free unlimited fiber WiFi available.


A $25% deposit is required to confirm booking the balance is payable 1 month prior to stay.

Smoking allowed outside only
Families preferred.

No Tents allowed on section unless prior consent given.

NOTE: Under Kiwi bach tradition you are expected to: Clean the house and do the dishes before you leave; Bring your own linen (towels/sheets/tea towels);

Cozy holiday bach
It was a memorable holiday with my precious brother and sister before they move to USA. Perfect location to go for fishing on the beach and close to town centre. The bach was very comfortable and tidy. Tony allowed my small dog to stay at the outside utility room. Thanks for your kindness. The local manager Lynda was very friendly. Definitely would like to return again.

Great spot
Had a great time in Whanga staying here. Close to town and the beach. It is an awesome kiwi bach and we appreciated having air con and a dishwasher that we hadn’t had at other old bach’s we had rented before. We’d definitely rent this one again.
