Perfect secluded beach getaway
Everything that we had hoped for when we planned our visit to Piha. Comfortable, well equipped private cottage with fabulous views and sunsets. Easy walk to beautiful Piha Beach. The hot water outdoor shower was a treat and you saw and heard nothing but the surf.

A very stylish and well thought out bach with a beautiful garden land stunning view. Everything we could have wanted for a chilled out week end. Fabulous log burner all set to go with loads of wood. We loved the bach and would love to return in the summer to enjoy the gorgeous outdoor area and easy beach access. Thank you!!

Excellent seaside home
Incredible location! A short two minute walk to the beach and a ten minute walk to the Piha store which has everything a tourist needs. The home was beautiful too! The outdoor shower is such a nice feature. Hosts were easy to reach and communicate with. I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Piha.

Perfect Piha Bach
Everything about this Bach is 'spot on'; the elevated location a couple of minutes from the beach, stunning ocean view, lovely bush setting, beautifully renovated & decorated Bach retaining it's original charm, and plush beds and lounge furniture. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay - thank you!!!

Second holiday at the Piha bach and we couldn't have asked for anything more. Great private location, retro refurbished house, fantastic views, great layout inside, beautiful native gardens and more. Only downside is we had to leave.

Amazing place
This bach is lovely - not only is it in a great location with views of Piha beach, but it feels entirely private as well. The bach itself has been really well renovated, with lovely little character touches combining comfort and style. Communication with the owners was excellent.

Undeniably the "Perfect Place in Piha"!
What an amazing bach and location. I'm actually hesitant to write this review because we'd rather keep this place a secret from the rest of the world, but Maxine and Jon totally deserve the 5 stars! Thank you both so much.
