Serene and Scenic
We had calm sea views, fishing at the door step, a well equipped bach that was family friendly and it had enough entertainment to cater for a broad range of people. Loved our relaxed stay.

Wedding accomodation
Loved staying here. We had this place for the groomsmen to relax on Friday night before the wedding and then great photos in the morning and a nice easy distance to the venue at Old Forest School. We then needed to extend the stay which Hayley was able to arrange within minutes which was super helpful. The rooms are spacious and an amazing view of the water. Will definitely stay again

Beautiful views. Great owner
Super clean property. Exactly matches the photos. The deck view is as stunning as the photos. The owner was amazing to work with. We unexpectedly needed to extend our stay and Hayley was so incredibly helpful! I would definitely stay here again. And recommend the snapper and chips from the takeaway.

Needs work
Good communication with host. Great location and right on the beach, however this property let itself down with some areas lacking In cleanliness eg: inside oven, stained sheets & mould on window sills in kitchen to name a few things. Great old school kiwi Bach but feel it’s priced as a 5 star accomodation property and definitely not 5 star.

Dissapointed but overall good stay
On arrival the lockbox code had been changed and I was not notified. Thankfully a neighbour came to our rescue who had the new code, he was waiting on a tradie. The barbeque did not work and was not clean! The one bedroom had an awful smell which i discovered was the mattress protector. We removed it and flipped the mattress over. As we were leaving the cleaning lady stopped and I passed on this information. She said that 2 seperate bookings had happened and she was not called in to clean for either. We pay for cleaning but seems its not been done? After all this we really enjoyed our stay and location.

Hi Bev, sorry to hear you were disappointed with your stay. The lockbox code was updated on the booking app and I also contacted you with the new code. It’s a shame that you didn’t get the information as it was changed the day before your stay for security. With regards to the cleaner, we use two different cleaners and the one you saw as you left was not the cleaner that completed the clean prior to your stay, I can assure you it was cleaned!

We had such a beautiful, glorious time away.
The ocean was our backyard with views to die for. We fished, swam, walked the coastline, made sandcastles, picked tuatuas etc. It was perfect family QT. The house was cosy, modern and very comfortable with a games room and spacious bedrooms. All to cater for us. Absolutely loved it and will definitely be back 😊 Thank you to our host Hayley for sharing your beautiful home with us. Arohanui xo

Venue excellent
Disappointed at the behavior of our guests on the last night. Some got carried away with alcohol and excessive noise. Sincerist apologies in embarrasment. Also had unexpected guests. I believe we left the property clean and tidy. I did find a stray hand towel in my laundry possibly belonging to the house. Happy to replace via bond. Overall an excellent weekend.

We had a great 5 nights here using this as our base for day trips out to Mount Maunganui, Tauranga and Rotorua. The beachfront location is amazing and one of our highlights were the daily sunrises. Communication with the owner was quick and easy.

Awesome location, well equipped, great time
We had a great midweek getaway and travelled to and from work in Tauranga. The Bach is well setup with the roaring sea as a spectacular background. We spent each afternoon on the beach swimming safely and set the longline catching a few fresh snapper each night. The shower has great pressure so was a highlight of the stay !! Hayley was easy to contact and super helpful. Highly recommend.
