Comfortable kiwi Bach stay

Everything you need for a lazy time near the beach. Just a minute or two to the beach. Well-equipped kitchen plenty of room. Lovely to sit out on the verandah and look at the ocean.

First time stay at Algies Bay...and loved it

Perfect little get away for our family of 7 plus toddler and 2 dogs, as we like a more traditional bach accommodation. Met by owner Don, who was gracious despite our lateness, and he provided a splendid overview of the area (which is stunning). We had a wonderful time

Classic kiwi Bach

Stayed here for a week with partner and friends. This Bach is very much your classic NZ Bach which does come across in listing and reflects the price as well. Excellent location close to the beach with everything needed to make stay comfortable. Some furniture and decor etc could probably be replaced to spruce it up a little but otherwise comfortable.

Great little 'kiwi bach'

This property is close to the beach and has sea views, you can even hear the waves from the house. It is wam and cosy. You can bring the children and the dog and not worry too much about bringing in sand or the children touching stuff, very laid back, pefect for a family holiday.

Short walk to the beach

This is just as the ad says a typical kiwi bach. It’s a few mins walk to the beach which is the best part and bush around we heard possums and a morepork at night. The bach had everything we needed except a washing machine. We had a lovely holiday and our dog did too. We paid a service fee, but I’m not sure what the services are that book a bach charged when we made key arrangements etc with the owner.
