Tranquil peaceful fully equipped house
We had the most amazing stay in an amazing location. The only noises to be heard were the tuis and gentle lapping of the water onto the beach. The house was fully equipped with all that we needed. There was a wee welcome gift when we arrived which was very thoughtful. Very comfortable beds and pillows. We would most definitely stay there again - in fact it was very hard to leave.

The Beach House was more lovely than we could have imagined.
The Beach House was more lovely than we could have imagined. Very private, 180 sea views, right on the waterfront, and the stars at night are not to be missed! Thank you for letting us stay, we had an amazing weekend.

A lovely peaceful property which was perfect for our group.
A lovely peaceful property which was perfect for our group. More spacious than we anticipated and the separate spaces worked well for us. The Bush setting and harbour views make this a lovely spot for a get away. The Bach had everything we needed. All in all a lovely holiday home and all our group would highly recommend.

Wow what an amazing location and really lovely bach to stay in.
Wow what an amazing location and really lovely bach to stay in. It was very clean and tidy and great that the fire was made up ready to be lit. The facilities in the house are fantastic and it was a bonus being able to use the kayaks. We didn't want to leave and will be back again!

About the host

Host profile image
We love our paradise escape at Pahi and share it just once a year as we have other extended family summer plans. We enjoy making our house available and comfortable for others to enjoy a peaceful and relaxing break in a not-so-well-known part of New Zealand, and so close to Auckland.

What makes this property unique

Stunning indoor/outdoor flow and decks for days in the sun / fire for those cooler winter nights
