Le Bons Bay is a classic kiwi holiday area on the Banks Peninsula with some good surfing
Lavericks Bay is my favorite bay on the Bank's Peninsula, scenic and peaceful there's usually no one there
Glamping in Lavericks Bay is a must do if visiting the Banks Peninsula, just up the road from the bay, tucked away on a local family farm, there's plenty of room for up to 7 people, with an outdoor bath and outdoor kitchen, it's so cute and cozy!

Clean room, good location, everything else was good. Parking is a bit tight. We actually thought we had a beach front room as shown on the picture.. looking right on to the water with lay back chairs. A bit of disappointment but we got over it.
