Fantastic Indoor/Outdoor Space!

Our family was at Bamboo Bungalow over the holidays and we LOVED our time there. The outdoor garden, patio and wood fired oven really made our time enjoyable. We even made some home made pizzas. The indoor area with large folding doors that open to the patio make you feel one with nature and the outdoors. Inside it was beautifully decorated and we had everything we needed. The living room was a great gathering spot for our family and the views out the window made it even better.It's remote which we loved, but do remember to bring your water and any food you might need as once you arrive, you won't really want to leave. We highly recommend this special spot and the owners were great hosts and very responsive.

About the host

Hosted by Lisa

Host profile image
We love living in this part of the West Coast. The surfing, beach and walks are a big part of our lives here. We love our garden and wanted to share this little piece of Paradise with guests. We also have a Glamping site in the Kapiti Coast North Island- Dreamscape Glamping. Creating great spaces and experiences for people is what we are both passionate about.

Why they chose this property

We've spent time in Indonesia so this is as close to what we could create while not being there. My partners passion is the garden and I love the interior side of things. This is a little piece of Bali without travelling all that way. Our gardens and our decor reflect this. Its peaceful and tucked away but not too far away from the local Pub, 4 Square, Restaurants, walks and hikes.

What makes this property unique

The garden is unique for this area. We are also a hop step and jump from the Estuary, River and beach which is great for paddle boarding, surfing, kayaking or White Bait fishing in the season.
