We organised a holiday in Golden Bay at an unfortunate time - a time of unprecedented flooding. Our Pohara base was a sanctuary after stressful days negotiating mud and closed roads. The house was warm, dry and easily accommodated our needs. Thanks to Gabrielle for checking in on our situation with the flooding.

This house was perfect for us, travelling as two families, spacious living and kitchen for the group, comfy beds, and entertainment for the teens. Beach was so close, House was tidy and clean, the whole trip was positive. A lovely base to return to when exploring the surrounding area. Thanks

Excellent communication with property manager, lovely clean large home with absolutely everything we needed. Beautiful location to base ourselves while we explored the area. We all enjoyed the pool table and ping pong table as well. Great BBQ. Thank you.

Great experience

Fantastic!!

Fantastic property, communication with. Host very good. Loved everything from booking to leaving

Overall very good, with excellent facilities. My wife was staying with her school teacher friends. We we’re pre warned about some decorating going on which was fine, but not told there was no vacuum to clean prior to leaving. One thing needs to be sorted is the downstairs shower temperature regulator was playing up and needs looking at. My wife rang the help number prior to leaving and was told the vacuum had broken, plus the lady apologised for not leaving the bath mats out.

The downstairs bunk beds are unstable and requires attention otherwise brilliant. Thank you. nine golfing ladies really enjoyed our stay. Location awesome!!!

Great place to for the extended family. Heaps of space. Perfectly located in Takaka area. The home has everything you need and more. Kids loved the activities available in the garage (Pool table, table tennis, fooz ball) Great communication with owners. We would love to stay again!!

The property is very well located, for Pohara Bay as well as access to Golden Bay in general, and is very well equipped for family groups.

The owner was very quick to respond to any communications, was very helpful and accomodating. The beds were comfortable and there was a high standard of cleanliness. The games room was enjoyed by teenagers. Thankyou

We really enjoyed our stay and the house had everything we could want. only think is we had difficulty locking the garage door - the bolt didn't line up on one side. however, it wasn't actually locked when we got there either

Well worth its weight in gold. We stayed as two large families and had a blast. The garage set up with pool and table tennis etc was the highlight for the kids as well as the close proximity to the beach and the kayaks we had use of! The house was beautiful and clean and beds were comfortable. We will definitely be back. Thanks again

Beautiful home in blissful Pohara. What a great space for our large family. The kids had a great time only a hop, skip and a jump from the beach.. while the older bunch relaxed and enjoyed the views/books. Thank you for sharing your beautiful space.

Lovely holiday house in Pohara

This is such an amazing place to stay for the adults and the children! The Bach has everything you need... Well-equipped kitchen nice comfortable couches, beauiful view.... Perfect. Thanks so much

A comfortable base from which to explore Pohara and Golden Bay. Thanks.

Perfect bach for family getaway. We stayed here as a group of 12 and there was plenty of room for all of us. The kitchen was well equipped for family meals. House was clean, great heating for those cold winter days and the kids loved the games, pool table and table tennis. Also just a hop across the road to the beach! Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a place in Pohara!

Clean, modern and plenty of space. The garage was fantastic for the kids and the beach was right across the rd. Magic!

We absolutely loved the place, had everything we needed to make our football weekend away a good one

We had a lovely stay in the house. The pictures do not reflect how great it is. We really enjoyed the kayaks and the ping pong table. We definitely recommand it

would book for next year

Annual family friends holiday. I won the cup for not only finding the best Bach for us all to stay in; catered for everyone’s requirements; large open plan living spaces to cook up a storm; kids experienced flatting by all living in the downstairs rooms. Playroom for kids to hangout in the evening whilst parents drank gin and tonics overlooking the beach debriefing the daily adventures we all took. 10 out of 10!

Well equipped accommodation however the downstairs area extremely cold. Suggest bedding should be included and rubbish to be removed by the owner, for the price paid. A tumble dryer will be a necessity due to the wet weather.

Fantastic more than we. Expected. Wood love to return in the near future from a Motueka local

Well organised. Beautiful location with all you need to enjoy your stay.

Amazing location and great communication

A perfect place to hang out with family and friends over Easter. Whether the sun is shining or it's raining outside, there is always something to do in Pohara. Thanks for such a relaxing stay!

A lovely large property which was absolutely perfect for our group of 9 (old friends from camping at Pohara over 30+years). The bedding is superb, the kitchen very well-equipped indeed, a great communal space and excellent bathrooms.We swam virtually every day straight across the road. Not far from (walkable) Pohara Camp store, cafes and restaurants. Golf course handy.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The house was perfect for our group. The garage is full of “toys”, but we didn’t use them as our kids are too young, except for the kayak one early morning. What an experience for my son! The beach is lovely, flat and safe, perfect for kids. Even though it was high season there weren’t many other people around. The kitchen is very well equipped we could have cooked up a storm if we wanted to, but it was also nice to eat out in Takaka. We had no idea that the area had so much to offer! It is quite a drive from Picton and we were glad that we spent a night in Nelson each way. communication with the owner was very enjoyable. The only thing that surprised us a bit negatively were the trucks that raced by from the early morning, not really what we expected from a dead end street. We didn’t investigate but it may be from a construction site and therefore only temporary. For sure we are hoping to visit again!

Great place to make memories and have quality family time! Spacious house

I can only comment on the upstairs as the downstairs flat was let separately while we were there. This is a lovely, modern bach with very large communal areas. It has a sumptuously equiped kitchen; rarely are there pans big enough for our family of 6 to cook in a bach. The position in Pohara across from the beach is wonderful. In 10 years of coming to Glden Bay this would be one of my top baches. We will definitely try to come back.
