A wonderful property - beautifully set up in a fabulous location. Highly recommend.

Incredible location! A short two minute walk to the beach and a ten minute walk to the Piha store which has everything a tourist needs. The home was beautiful too! The outdoor shower is such a nice feature. Hosts were easy to reach and communicate with. I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Piha.

Absolutely perfect !! Perfect location very close to beach! Fantastic cottage with all you could need. Very special and unique. Loved it

Amazing little retreat, property was everything we expected. Very comfortable, great location. Would highly recommend - Thanks again Jon & Maxine

This darling little home packed everything we could ask for and then some! Spectacularly beautiful beach views with complete privacy. Exquisitely soft, comfortable bed & furniture. All the necessities in the kitchen & bath. Lovely outdoor areas for bbqing, sunning. An easy walk to the beach with a gorgeous outdoor shower to rinse off the sand and salt is the icing on the cake! Thank you & cheers!! We definitely recommend & hope to return 💗

This is a perfect piece of paradise. All you need is to stock up on food and drink before you leave Auckland, everything else is provided. The views, sun, privacy and quiet in this beautifully updated bach nestled amoungst stunning old pohutakawa trees makes you feel relaxed from the moment you drive through the gate. We feel so lucky to have stayed here, thank you Maxine and Jon. We will be back!

Return after 50 years finds the majestic lion as great as it was back in the 60s. Our stay short as it was was so enjoyable. The property as a whole was just perfect. The pohutukawa ,ti kouka, kowhai and palms were beautiful and property was quite magical. Family members came to view the place. Exploring and following the paths was a great hit. Inside the Bach was perfection. A Bach still with the old blends with the new. The view of the beach from windows snd decks was quite superb. It had everything one could wish for in accommodation. Maxine it was great to have you check in to see if all was well we appreciated that so Thankyou. We will be back.

We truly loved staying at this lovely home! The view was amazing and everything was better than expected.

Second holiday at the Piha bach and we couldn't have asked for anything more. Great private location, retro refurbished house, fantastic views, great layout inside, beautiful native gardens and more. Only downside is we had to leave.

Just amazing. Such a beautiful property and an extremely well maintained and appointed home. Views and walking proximity to the beach was wonderful. It is obvious that the owners want their guests to be impressed. When we next return to New Zealand we will spend more time in Piha to experience the trails in the ranges and most definitely stay here.

We were blown away by the property. It far exceeded our expectations. What would likely have been an old Bach, has been transformed into a well loved holiday home. The views over Piha beach are amazing. We loved sitting in the deck and watching the surf roll in. Communication with the owners was fabulous. They left easy to follow instructions and were very responsive to emails. Great stay. Would definitely recommend.

Everything about our stay was amazing. The house is truly a gem. The view, the furnishings, the layout, and the location were so much more amazing than the pictures could possibly show. Maxine was responsive and thoughtful in her replies, and even helped us to extend one more night and arrange a special surprise at check-in. We will definitely be back and could not be more enthusiastic about our recommendation for this amazing home!

Was a wonderful restful weekend… exactly what we needed to recharge . The bird life and view of sea and sunset just stunning 🤩. Was a privilege to stay in you lovely home . Thanks for having us 😊

Everything about this Bach is 'spot on'; the elevated location a couple of minutes from the beach, stunning ocean view, lovely bush setting, beautifully renovated & decorated Bach retaining it's original charm, and plush beds and lounge furniture. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay - thank you!!!

The owners have taken such a delightfully detailed approach to this home. The location is perfect with ocean views but quiet as it's back from the main road. I loved the retro china and vibe. There was stacks of firewood, a great shower and a well stocked kitchen. We managed to jam and drawer and a window wouldn't close after we opened it - but they were very sweet about it and even drove 2 hours to fix the window.

We enjoyed our stay. Place was lovely and suited our wish for a modern, clean, stylish place to stay. Outdoor areas offered solutions for all weather. Communication from the host was ideal and very informative regarding the area as we had never been before. We would rebook if visiting the area again.

Loved our short stay - peaceful spot surrounded by bush and only a short walk to the beach. The Bach has been carefully restored to the cutest comfortable standards. Gorgeous! Can't wait to return. Jane & Geoff

An immaculate, thoughtful renovation and the perfect place for a romantic get away, relaxing right in front of Piha's magnificent beach. Comfortable and stylish, every little detail has been thought of. The cottage is set amongst the trees and not a single house is visible in the view off the deck, just the pristine breakers, surfers and the most amazing sunsets. Only a 5 min walk to the water. The outdoor shower is brilliant; such a treat. Highly recommended, thank you to the owners for sharing it, we will be back!

A tidy , beautiful kiwi Bach . Very peaceful with amazing views of native bush, beach and ocean. Stunning nightly sunsets. The Bach had everything you needed, a genuine kiwi experience

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this Piha gem. The house is beautiful, comfortable and has everything you might hope to need on a holiday. The location perfect and the outdoor shower is something very special Would definitely come back.

The house is snuggled behind ancient Pohutukaws trees with a huge deck and panoramic view of the sea and surrounding hills, without another house in sight. The house is immaculately renovated in a modern take on retro 30s Bach with all the modern comforts but retaining or echoing original features. The bach has everything you coujd need plus thoughtful extra like insect screens and a fantastic hot outdoor shower. The landscaping using beautiful natural boulders blends seamlessly with the surrounding bush ans us full of native plants. Everything is comfortable, fresh and new feeling and the artwork snd vintage decor add colour and personality. We were totally smitten!

The property is styled to perfection and Jon/Maxine were more than accomodating allowing us to check out an hour later for our baby’s sleep routine. The house is tucked away perfectly in the some beautiful bushes, feels like you’re living right in the heart of Piha nature. The beach is much closer than the view suggests, literally 2min walk! Highly recommend for any romantic getaway with your loved one…

What impressed me about this property was its attention to detail. Jon and Maxine have kept this property in pristine condition for their guests. It is tastefully decorated with just the right amount of midcentury furniture and items, with everything working and comfortable. We look forward to staying again.

Such a beautiful Bach. Every part of it was so well thought out and presented. The view is amazing and the Bach has been renovated to keep within its character but at such a high standard. The perfect spot to experience Piha

It was a great place to relax.

This property has been lovingly refurbished and presented as retro. The bach is located in a perfect private location, fabulous views of the ocean and within close proximity of the beach and a short walk to Piha Central. Everything needed was provided. Highly recommended

Lovely house. Great aesthetic. And a perfect location.

I cannot talk highly enough about the property and our stay. The house is set in a beautifully landscaped completely private section overlooking the Piha Beach. It is not right on the beach road, but back up the hill a little, but this did not detract from it at all, in fact it was a blessing. No cars, no people and no noise from the main road etc. The house is a beautiful and understated quintessential kiwi bach decorated in a modern bach style. The large front deck is completely private with all day sun and a stunning view of the beach and sunset. All the amenities are modern or original but work as you would expect any modern amenity. Lovely fire for winter nights. Maxine was a delight to communicate with and ensured we were provided with all the information we needed to make the stay as easy and nice as possible. I would highly recommend this place if you want to retreat into a private oasis in Piha but still have easy walking access to beach and shops. Thanks again. Simon

Amazing bach in a stunning setting! We love our short but sweet winter getaway. Thanks again!

A beautifully finished, very comfortable and relaxing property. We can’t fault the experience

What an excellent and cute little bach. We enjoyed our mid Winter stay and the sunny afternoons on the deck were a highlight. A very tidy, well setup bach with everything you could need.

Always a fantastic experience. Thank you.
