Unfortunately the weather was poor and this home requires great weather to make it enjoyable . The location is great but the home does not offer a modern layout but the charm of days gone by. The main bedroom does not have en-suite bathroom and if you are in a group, the 2 bathrooms must be shared.

Great Place: booking experience not good

We had a very memorable stay at this beautiful house - well set up right on a lovely Waiheke bay. The only flaw was booking through Bookabach which incurred and extra booking fee.

Wonderful weekend

We had a wonderful weekend for my husband’s birthday, staying at this gorgeous beachfront bach. Unfortunately the weather was wild and windy, so no kayaking or fishing, but we still had an excellent time, especially as we could bring our puppies. Bach was very clean, comfortable beds and lovely large private beach and grounds. Would definitely rent again- hopefully when the sun is shining! Thank you again for a lovely stay.

We would like to book from December 23-29th 2023

We would probably book through year. On the downside there were no life jackets for the kayaks. Toilets dirty. Bathroom shower had long black hairs. Pizza, cups. glasses, bottle tops left round the property. On the upside wonderful to have our family dogs and good kitchen appliances to work with.

A very special property in a beautiful location.

A few little details like the TV sound system not working and whilst this was fixed on the night of arrival the contractors (albeit nice people) arrived at 9pm at night. Toaster and icemaker in fridge not working and microwave a little worse for wear. Minor details however for the price per night it would be worth sorting these things before guests arrive.

Fantastic, idyllic retreat.

We had a great time in this awesome home which was warm and cosy against the rainy weather with it's 2 fire places and well stocked amenities including the coffee machine and heaters and choice of sun porches.

Perfect place for a family break

We had a wonderful stay here! There was plenty of space and things to do for everyone. The house was well equipped with everything you would need. The hosts were great and happily dropped off extra linen due to my error when booking. We will be back!

Just perfect

We had a great couple of nights stay here, was just what we needed. Chilling out on the veranda with our Westie, walking the beach and a wine or two in front of the fire at night. Great communication throughout and very accommodating, we'll be back, we have found a new favorite!
