Very pleasant stay
The location and the house we know well, seen it many times, it was a great 3 days, A Lucky break before the school holiday crowd arrives, and just not long enough stay, The facilities are great, A sunny Sunday in the PM and a perfect calm morning on check out, the 11am check out is very good, that extra hour makes a difference to waking up and chasing around.

Tour guides for American friends
After a five year absence from NZ it was a delight to return with American friends to Golden Bay. This home was a perfect spot to relax and take the time to smell not only the roses in the garden but stroll the beach and look for little treasures that just had to come home with us. I recommend this beautiful home to one and all and can't wait to bring my family here.

Perfect location, home away from home with everything you need
As soon as you arrive you know, its a special place to be. Right on the beach, amazing sun rises and sun sets, safe swimming, lovely and quiet. Very comfortable and clean with everything you would need. even an organic food stall at end of road. This property never disappoints, an excellent find

Paradise!
We had the best time at this gorgeous place. It's definitely a level up from your normal bach - lots of lovely little touches and luxuries that make this house feel like a real treat. Our little boy was so happy to be so close to the beach and it was so serene looking out at the water from the windows. A real sense of pride has been taken in the crafting of this house, and the location is an absolute winner too.

Unbeatable
Unbeatable spot in a beautiful Bach. We've stayed at many places in Golden Bay and this is our favourite. Can't beat the location and the house is super comfortable and has everything you need! Really comfy beds and nice linen which you don't often get in a Bach! The whole family loved it and we'll be back! Thank you!

Outstanding Location, Perfect Home.
Awesome, Primo, The View, The Location, Perfect Place are all words and phrases that were said on our first glimpse from the deck, looking out to the Tasman Sea. Walking, Frisbee, swimming and Kayaking are activities savoured while here. The house is well appointed with everything you need, an excellent layout to make our stay homely but beachy too. If you forgot something, Takaka is 10 mins away. Wharaiki is well worth the 50min drive north. A beer at Collingwood a nice finish. A walk or run at the Pupu Hydro Walkway is well worth it too. We want to return and do it all again in an outstanding location, in the perfect home. Thank you Amy and Tim. Steve and the lads.

Wonderful location to relex
We felt very comfortable right from the start. The house is beautifully designed and furnished - it has charm. There is almost nothing better than waking up in the morning, seeing the sun shine and hearing the sound of the sea. You can do this while lying in bed or sitting on the terrace with a cup of coffee. The rustic stand is just 5 metres away.

Stunning beachfront property
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay for 4 nights at Patons Rock. The house was comfortable and had everything you need for a lovely stay. The weather wasn't quite on our side for a couple of days with fairly heavy rain however we were tucked up and warm and cosy inside with books and games and enjoyed looking at the view of the sea which is so close. The weather improved and we were able to go for lovely walks on beach. Overall a fantastic property to stay and having the sea right at the doorstep was just magic. Would love to return.
