Tidy, clean and well presented 2 bedroom house on large, private rear section. Open plan dining and lounge opens onto well furnished deck. Easy walk to shops, cafe and pub and approx' 500m to beach. House was perfect in providing easy access to the beach for swims and walks, yet only 15 minutes from central New Plymouth.

Great property, loved our stay. Well supplied and furnished. You do need to drive to the beach if you have a surf board or lots of stuff. You can walk to the pub and restaurants. Would happily stay again!

Lovely house beautiful bathroom very comfortable beds very peaceful and quiet and in a perfect location for restaurants, shops and beach. Howie says he is installing a new kitchen by next year which will make it complete. Howie is a very kind helpful host. Thank you for sharing your home with us and our happy dogs. We all had a super weeks holiday

Room and safe for our pet to run around

Loved being at the place, had a great relaxing time. Will definitely be back. Thank you.

Close to the shops and restaurants, property is well furnished and kept well - nice and clean - good outdoor deck - all that you need inside including good coffee machine.

We had a great time staying at Howie's place - large fully fenced yard was good for the dog, and plenty of space to relax inside and outside on the spacious deck. Nice 10 min walk to the beach through the forest too. Our second time staying there, and we'll be keen to stay again in future

Great location with bar, takeaways, coffee and a very nice Italian restaurant less than 5 minutes walk. Clean house and very comfortable. Host quick to reply to messages. Highly recommend

Lovely home! So relaxing

Property was perfectly located for strolling distance to shops and down to the beach. We had our dog with us and it was the perfect sized flat enclosee yard for him. Inside the house is pleasant and very comfortable. Howie was the perfect host. 10/10, will be back for another stay!

Thank you for the awesome place to stay. We couldn’t fault it in any way and will stay again. Perfect location to walk to town/pub.

Nice house in a very quiet location, comfy beds and in walking distance to a nice beach and river for swimming.The village had some good places to eat and friendly neighbours.We had a very enjoyable stay.

We had a great time and enjoyed the peace and quiet -- having a large well-fenced yard was great for our dog, and we enjoyed afternoons sitting on the deck under the shade sail.

Loved the Bach. Howie was quite friendly and approachable house is quite big with all the necessary amenities.

Thanks Howie. We had an amazing time such a great house for our family and great for the dog also!

Great to stay at Howie's place. Four adults and two dogs fitted very comfortably. Fully fenced, handy location, tranquil. All basics supplied.

Relaxed comfortable property with everything we needed, situated 10 minutes walk from the beach, 600 steps away from good restaurants and cafes, and a 10 minute drive to the big city to see the sights and enjoy the Festival of Lights. Ideal really!

This was the second time we have stayed at Howie's place. We really enjoy both the house, and Oakura generally. The house is especially good if you want to travel with your dog, and / or a young child as it is a nice large fully fenced section, and Howie is really good with allowing pets inside, which is rare for rental beaches. The house is also very well equipped and very comfortable. The location is very handy to Oakura Village, and the beach via a nice ten minute walk through a lovely Bush reserve. Unfornately the house has recently lost its view of the sea, and some of its privacy, due to a brand new apartment building in front of it, but the view was never the drawcard anyway.

We had a great time in Oakura! Lovely batch, comfy beds and plenty of lounging areas. Howie was very helpful and welcoming! Lovely little town with great food and fantastic swimming. Thanks!

Definitely a home away from home and so nice to be away from town, although New Plymouth is only 10 mins away. Really peaceful and secure for the doggies, a really well equipped kitchen (although believe it or not it’s the one time we needed a corkscrew and couldn’t find one, ha!) and the most comfortable bed. Howie was an excellent host, so keen to make sure we had everything we needed and great communication . Would highly recommend Oakura Bach.

Very helpful owner. Spacious living area. Comfortable beds.

Very relaxing tone in a lovely Bach.

Well kept Bach type home with a easy outdoor setting. New Plymouth and surf breaks very close.

Some communication issues at the beginning with concerns as to why I had not been notified that all monies had been paid and access information shared. Was kindly sorted by the owner in the end with a very generous offer to extend our check out time to a time convenient to us. This arrangement was appreciated.

This is a great place to stay in Oakura. Very comfortable and had everything we needed. Howie was a great host. 😊

A very basic Bach. Very comfortable beds but it could have been cleaner and the lawns weren’t even mown. It now over looks a construction site and will in no time at all be built out which will affect sun etc.

Howard's bach was perfect for us all and the dog! Close to Oakura shops and short walk down to the beach. It was clean, good kitchen, great garden and outdoor furniture. Loved the stereo too. We'd love to visit again one day soon.

We really enjoyed our winter break with our son and dog here. It's a great cosy wee house, the pictures don't quite do it justice :) Howie was just the right balance of helpful and laid back. Would love to stay again. Thanks!

Awesome bach, beautiful location. Great to be able to take our pet. Highly recommend

Rustic appearance with a large section. Comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen and plenty of wood for heating. Ideal summer or winter to spread out and also make the most of the great location near the beach and 10 mins drive into New Plymouth. Howie, the owner was very helpful in providing details for check in. We’d definitely stay there again.

Roomy, peaceful and comfortable in a nice location. What more is there to add . Howie was also very helpful

We had a great stay at Oakura Village Bach, we ended up staying an extra couple of nights to catch up with family and Howard was very flexible and accommodating. Great place, clean, tidy and private.
