We were looking forward to a much needed relaxing break after saving up for it all year, but unfortunately we weren't anticipating how noisey the road would be so unfortunately had to cut our holiday short due to this.

Little bach but nice and roomy. And very comfortable. All facilities required were there to make it homely. Close and easy walk to town and the beach. Although we were only there for a short time we felt like we had had a good restful break.

Great spot spacious and clean. Good comms.

Perfect location for parkrun; you can see the start/ finish from the bedroom! Was quite cold on a chilly Whangamatā night with just one small electric heater for the whole property but other than that it had everything you needed and was clean and tidy. We don’t need wifi so not an issue for us but be aware if you need to stay connected and don’t have data.

Good location and nice enough to enjoy the location.
4.5
We really enjoyed the stay and the comfy bed and good shower. It was handy to town and we had nice walks into the wharf. It had plenty of windows to keep the house cool which was great. Taking own linen and cleaning after was easy for us, it would be good if people before us put same effort in. We enjoyed sitting outside at the picnic table having a drink and snacks. A bit of traffic noise, but other than that we really enjoyed the bach and would stay again.

We had a lovely time! Lynda was wonderful, super easy to communicate with. What a fantastic property for a beach holiday! It was very clean and had everything we needed. Close to a main road, but very private. Near to the beautiful marina, and not far from the mountain bike track. We all had a great stay.

This place was perfect for our little stay, it's clean, tidy and super close to the little township. Although we only stayed the one night we would definitely stay again! Communication from the host was also great! :)
4.5
Modern, Clean tidy and quite spacious. Well appointed once one finds the place as there is no numbering or identification to help. Almost like a hideaway in plain sight. (perhaps the owners want it kept their little secret)
4.5
all was good Linda was good to talk to
4.5
on arrival easy access to key, everything was there and the best can opener I have ever used away from home!!!
Harry the dog enjoyed the marina and beach walks all in walking distance. and the 2 Op shops were a hit as well.
met the neighbours real nice area will be back.
4.5
This property made a great base to spend time out & about exploring local walks, different beaches with the dog, markets etc.
The property was cosy & comfortable & was exactly as advertised by the owner in their listing & photos.
Hopefully all future guests continue to look after the property & maintain the high cleaning standard (self cleaning by guests required), so the owner continues to offer a good value property, when so many alternate places add such large additional cleaning fees etc that short stays become unfeasible.
Much appreciated dogs being welcome.
4.5
Hard to find dog friendly so thats good
As well as sheets and towels bring tea towels and soap
I would suggest your own pillow for comfort.
Its a bunkhouse set with op shop kind of furniture The double bed was ok but a but tired.
There was plenty of hot water and there is a tv.
No wifi though
If you have dogs as i did be aware of rat traps set around the property just to be careful
I imagine if you are a group of young adults or a family with kids it would be an economical stay.
The owner was friendly and accomodating and helped me quickly when i couldnt figure out the bizarre numbering on the letterboxes Look for a blue cabin structure below a big blue house that has the same look.
