Superb spot to access local beaches and enjoy fabulous sunsets. Bach is spotlessly clean and wonderfully equipped wirh everything you need (a few hooks or towel rails in the bathroom would be super helpful though!) Overall, a lovely place to stay!!! Highly recommended.

Kiwi bach right on the beach

This is the best holiday rental we've ever stayed in. It's a clean, tidy, renovated Kiwi bach across the road from the beach and a real gem. You can sit out on the covered front verandah all day if you want. There are a number of interesting walks nearby, and the ocean beach is a short drive away. Many of the facilities in the house are new and the master bed mattress is very comfy. Karen and Lou are warm, friendly hosts. We warmly recommend this place, and we'll be back. Geoff and Sue
