Great location, just a short walk across the road to the beach. Whangapoua is a little gem, still the same since I spent summers here as a kid in the early '80's.

Great location. Very warm and well appointed with everything you might need. Especially recommended if you’re holidaying in cooler months as it is well insulated and comfortable. Would be great over summer as well with the extra covered outdoor area

We had a wonderful stay in Whangapoua. The location is unbeatable - right by the sea. The bach itself was spacious and clean, with plenty of amenities to make our stay comfortable. We especially enjoyed the garden and deck with hammocks, which were perfect for lounging. The owner was very helpful and provided us with all the information we needed for a great stay. Highly recommended!

Quite nice. Really disappointed as house was freezing. Wood had to been trekked to the house for the fire. No wood inside already to go as you would expect. BBQ dirty. No heaters. No internet. One bedroom not two as advertised. Quite disappointed.

Whangapoua is a beautiful spot and the bach was a great place to adventure from. While it is limited on bedrooms, the window seats are great to sleep on and there are plenty of other options for a spot to sleep. The house has everything you need and instructions from the owners before going and during the stay were really clear and easy to follow. The best thing about it is that it is a super short walk to the beach, the shops and the playground.
