We loved the house and especially the location.
My only complaint was that due to ongoing window repairs some of the windows would not stay wide open and we had some very hot weather. I guess that will be fixed in due course.

We have stayed quite a few times at this bach over the last 10 years. It is in a marvellous location. It has a beautiful atmosphere and since we were last there (precovid) it has a new kitchen and bathroom. Highly recommend this for families who like to bike and swim.

Had a great time, loved having the bike path and the beach right outside the door!! Did get caught out by the bedrooms being so seperate though, as we had children too young to sleep in the bunk room. Would be fantastic for older kids though.

Great spot for a family catch up
We loved our stay at Waitahanui. The bunk room was perfect for the kids and there was a lot of room for all the adults. We found the house very clean and cosy, with everything we needed. The lake front setting was gorgeous. Already planning our next trip back.

This property was perfect for our needs, very comfortable beds and well equipped. The location is amazing, the kids enjoyed swimming & riding their bikes. Out the front of the property was especially great for cricket!

The location was perfect, right on the lake.
The location was perfect, right on the lake. Plenty of room. More than enough crockery especially with the use of the dishwasher. Everything there that you needed for a relaxing holiday. From our point of view it would have been good to have been made pet friendly. Also if there were some kayaks etc made available. It also brought back lovely memories as my parent s rented it for many years 30 years ago as a holiday place once a year.
