Independent in Hicks Bay from NZ$262

"Welcoming and very beautiful visited in the winter and the home was very cosy and warm. The view was breath taking to wake up too. Would be definitely booking back in here. "

"Great modern property that is well equipped. Bill was great to deal with. "

"My family said it was a great place to stay. Plenty of room, and great facilities. Host was very helpful and obliging. We will definitely be back. "

"Was a nice place for what we needed. "

"This is a true old style Kiwi bach, a bit scruffy and well worn/used. But that is its beauty and authenticity. Staying by the beach in a more remote part of Aotearoa, I do not want a super-swish, Auckland style apartment. The area is stunningly beautiful, especially Whanarua Bay itself. But there seem to be undertones of local conflict over who can fish, how and where. So be careful and sensitive."
