Just a short stay

Great stop over for two nights. Older style bach with everything you need. Awesome outdoor area with big deck to enjoy the sunshine and loved the fact that linen and towels were supplied - walk in walk out. Not quite swimming weather but the beach is only a hop, skip and a jump away! Thank you for having us.

Great traditional Bach

Great Kiwi Bach! Very comfortable with all the things you need for a beach holiday and plenty of space indoors and out. Comfortable beds and a heat pump too, which we didn’t need, as there was a good sea breeze. Fabulous location down the Estuary end of Whangamata. Rechelle was a wonderful host, very friendly, helpful and easy to deal with.

Classic bach

Great location about 100m from Whangamata beach. House is comfortable and well-equipped although it could use a little bit of an update. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely go back.

Perfect kiwi bach

We so loved staying in this proper kiwi bach. Weather was perfect so we lived on the massive deck, kitchen was well-equipped for preparing food. Beach and river both close enough for multiple swims a day. Awesome and will return again.

So we’ll-equipped!

What a wonderful Bach. In a very quiet location, 1 minute walk to beach and estuary. Takeaway and convenience store across the road, which has everything from ice creams to paddle board hire. Very comfortable beds. Extremely well-equipped kitchen. Large back deck with great indoor, outdoor flow. Plenty of parking. Neighbours close. Extremely welcoming and generous owner who allowed us to stay longer which was very much appreciated. Just lovely!

Typical NZ bach getaway

Very good communication with owners. Relaxed and laid-back feel to the property. Good access to beach and estuary but a bit far to the center of town or main swimming area

Great spot, super clean and everything you need!

We had a great stay for 5 adults and 2 kids under 2. The house had everything we needed and is super close to the surf beach and the estuary. The dairy over the road is also very convenient. Its a little far from town so not really walking distance but that didn't worry us. The deck area would be great in summer, was a bit cold for us and also not ideal with small children.
