A kiwi bach with beachfront access. Unspoilt Mt Taranaki and sunset views. Unfortunately we had to air out because of musty smell and a bit of cleaning was required.There was a few small issues but overall comfortable double bed made it ok. A bit of a tidy up and this bach would be perfect. We had a 5 year old who camped on the couch with his sleeping bag, we had all our own bedding. We wanted a relaxing holiday with beach walks and play and that's what we got.

We recently booked this Bach and were really unsatisfied with the standard of the house that we never even stayed a night. The location is very good and right on the beach so if you don't mind slumming it it could be the perfect place for you. The main problem was that the property looks nothing like the photos,especially the bedrooms which,to be frank,were disgusting. Very messy,with wardrobes with wonky doors, mattresses that would be at least 20 years old,live rodent traps and an ant problem and a really horrible stale,damp smell. We believe that the owner has deceived us and any other potential tenants by providing such out of date photos. You will also note that all the reviews on here are 7 years old which is telling.....She also admitted in a note on the wall that there had been a leak earlier this year and advised not to turn a light for a few weeks in case the leak hadnt dried out yet.she assures us that this note is no longer applicable and the problem has been resolved but it hardly inspires confidence. We have a toddler and felt that potential rodent infestation along with water damage and potential electrical faults was not safe or hygienic and wouldn't have felt at all comfortable letting her sleep in a room on her own. If the rodent problem had been advised in the advert or when she phoned us before we paid then we wouldn't have booked the Bach in the first place. Once we got home and had a phone signal we contacted the owner and explained the situation and what we were unsatisfied with but she didn't agree (or perhaps even care)and just seemed offended that we didn't like her Bach as much as she did. At no point did we ever ask for a refund but she said she wouldn't give us one because our 'attitude stinks'.

Genuine Kiwi Bach. So close to the beach. Had a great 6 days here fishing, walking and relaxing on the deck and the sunsets were awesome. Was really peaceful and private. Alison the owner had great communication with me and was very helpful. I took spare kitchenware but didn’t need it as all amenities were in the Bach and was clean and tidy and I had the best sleep I have had for months. Just trying to organise time off work to go back again.
