Week with friends
This property was ideal for a week with our friends - location was perfect, close to the beech, and a walking track to a fantastic look out. Having a nice café within walking distance was a bonus. The property was very well appointed, having 2 bathrooms was ideal.

Great Holiday Home
We had a wonderful time with the children enjoying all the varied beaches and activities this location has to offer. It was fun discovering large crabs at Lonely Bay and our youngest loved the pontoon now at Flaxmill Bay. The Kayaks were fun too. The home was very clean, comfortable and spacious. It was an ideal family home with separate areas for family and grandparents with two bathrooms. We all loved the outside shower with hot water and two taps at front and back made it easy to keep our feet sand free. Elaine was very helpful and generous with the use of pantry items, towels, games etc. We opted to have the sheets at a small extra cost and I found it particularly helpful finding the beds made up, especially the bunks. It was lovely to see Flaxmill Bay as you walk down the road - the beach is only just 2 to 3 minutes away. Such a beautiful view. The camping ground next door was no problem being noises of family fun. I did find the neighbour's home at the front of the bach separated by a fence a bit too close as they had a number of people stay. They were very friendly though and I think a few trees planted there would solve any privacy problem. This was not something that would put me off coming again. We had a wonderful holiday. Thank you Elaine.

Always a fabulous stay here
We have rented this bach 3 times now and we just love it. The location, proximity to the beach, access to other lovely areas such as Hahei, Whitianga, and Hot water beach. House is always clean, tidy and has everything we need for our family of 5. It’s very hard to find an affordable bach in this area in summer and this is one of the best!

Good, tidy, comfortable property with everything you need. Very comfortable beds! Basic kitchen with everything you need. Lovely luxury of having hot outdoor shower! Note: if you are wanting a quiet tranquil getaway this is not the place. It is next to a small campground and this constant ambient noise may not suit everyone.

The property was well laid out and accommodated our needs perfectly. We appreciated having the use of the kayaks during our stay and the Wasjig was great fun too! Location is ideal in a quiet cul de sac with easy access to a lovely safe swimming beach and good walks nearby. Would recommend!
