About this house rental
Please note for New Years bookings you must ENQUIRE first before booking as we have different requirements for this period.
If you're feeling like it's time for a break then maybe you should take a dose of Vitamin Sea.
Architecturally designed and situated on a gorgeous bush fringed, sunny section this holiday home is both unique and charming and the outllook over the trees to the sand spit and ocean is to die for. The house is a brief stroll to the calm, sandy harbour beach at the end of Pearl St or walk a couple of minutes further to the stunning surf beach and avoid the summer traffic jams there at the carpark. When you get home from the beach, you can wash the sand off in the groovy outdoor shower.
The main house has 2 bedrooms and the upstairs landing between the rooms also has a single bed there's also a bathroom and kitchen with dishwasher. In addition, for larger groups (over 6 people), there is a sleepout which has a queen and single with trundler and a bathroom.
In a location where people are increasingly building houses that are the same as each other, it is a real delight for us to present this wonderfully unique home and to offer it to rent for people who want more than just a roof over their head but desire an experience as well. Go on, get yourself a dose of Vitamin Sea....
LINEN: Please note that other than pillows, duvets and duvet covers, linen is not included in the tariffs but can be rented for $25 per person, further details are provided in the 'Rooms and beds' section of the listing. If you wish to add linen, please add a note to your booking with what beds you wish to use so they can be made up. We have linen as an optional extra to make a more affordable holiday for those who wish to bring their own.
BOOKING PAYMENT: Although Bookabach/VRBO take your credit card details, all booking payments are made to Bach Stay NZ Limited who manage this property for the owners. Once your booking is approved, we will send you a payment email with a choice of credit card payment (a 3% surcharge applies) or bank transfer (no charges). Please note the amount stated as 'Deposit Paid at Property' on the Bookabach/VRBO quote is actually a refundable bond that will be collected as part of the accommodation payment, it is not collected at the property as the wording suggests.

The listing makes it clear this is not a high end bach and it's not but, it lovely. Old, lived in and comfy bit like staying with your gran. We spent 2 nights "mini break" here with our dog walked the beach, went to the local bar, watched the sun rise/set from the deck.....perfect chill will go back.

Love the property - light, airy and thoroughly relaxing.
The back neighbour is closer than expected, and the house hadn't been cleaned in the corners for a while, but neither of the above would stop me coming back again.

Unique and homey property. I stayed with my whole family- my parents, three brothers, and my husband. The sleep-out was a great additional space, where my husband and I stayed. We were able to enjoy the living area with the whole family. Kitchen was fully equipped. We really enjoyed the views that the home had to offer. There is a short walk to the beach area, and we were really close by to the Saturday markets. Dave, the property manager was very helpful at every step of the way, he was very quick at answering questions and ensured that we had a good stay.
