Waihi Beach Fun

A wonderful long break, house was well equipped and the views spectacular. We woke in the morning to the sunrise over the ocean. everything we needed and comfy beds. plenty of time on the beach the dog loved her runs and fun, trip to Tauranga was fun. A night was quiet and you can hear the ocean which was nice. I would recommend this place for a family fun get away, but bring a torch as its so dark when the lites out lol. Only one thing please put a curtain up at the window for the night time. Thanks for a fantastic holiday.

We had the best time in Waihi Beach, staying at the bach. It is exactly as you expect a bach to be, and has all the essentials. The location is great and the view - unbeatable. We would love to stay again.

Stunning view and tidy house

Such a lovely Bach. Original 70s, no fuss, everything you need and extremely clean. View is just stunning! Stairs to toilet/second bedroom quite steep so just to consider for little ones/elderly. But we'd definitely stay again

Very relaxing Autumn break

Wonderful property to sit back and relax and enjoy the sea in late autumn. Clean, tidy, dog friendly and only 50m from the crashing waves. Close by to all facilities and enjoyed exploring local history via walking tracks.

Perfect position

We had another great stay. House was ideal for the two of us and wonderful we could have our dogs with us. You can't beat the location and veiws so is a great option even as the weather heads into winter. Heater is provided so it's easy to keep cosy and there are plenty of blankets. The microwave wasn't working for us but I'm sure it will be sorted before the next people stay.

Superb space for a Kiwi holiday experience

We stayed for an evening celebration with a few friends and family, and we totally loved it. The photos don't do it justice, with beautiful large sliding doors giving the best view of Waihi Beach ever! A stones throw away from it, but equally you feel warm and at home inside, beautiful wood interior, and a space to be with family. Downstairs was fun and homely for those wanting to all sleep and bunk together. Sue was awesome to communicate with, provided everything we needed, and you can even save on the cleaning fee by leaving the place in a tidy manner and mopping up after yourself. Just let her know in advance :) We will 110% be back.

Crashing waves

Stunning view and the sound of crashing waves was relaxing. Walked on beach every night and morning. We had 2 dogs and they were made welcome with a dog bed and blanket for furniture. Just perfect sitting in lounge with the ranch sliders open watching the waves. Perfect
