Fabulous bach

Felt like we were in paradise. Loved the location so much. Bach had everything we needed. There were 4 adults and 2 children staying which left one spare bedroom, so ideal for 2 families. Having the beach on our doorstep was wonderful was well used and the outside shower

The Perfect Kiwi Bach

We had the most amazing week away!! This place is right on the beach and waking up to the sand at your doorstep was a real treat. It’s a simple house with an epic view and a distinct lack of technology!! No internet or fancy stuff, just a classic beach vibe that you can melt into and enjoy your family and friends. Thanks so much!!!

What an incredible place!

Thank you for sharing your wonderful slice of paradise with us! We had plenty of room for our large family and dogs, and thoroughly enjoyed being right on the beach. The view is breathtaking and we appreciated the short dash to the water for a winters dip! Wonderful! Arohanui, Rianna & Family

Homely, well equipped bach in a 2nd to none location

Awesome bach with plenty of space and well stocked pantry. Host was very accommodating and helpful. The location is right on the beach of a white sandy, sheltered bay. We extended our stay while we were here because we simply werent ready to leave such an awesome place. Thank you so much Linda. This trip was special to our family and you made it exactly that. Special. Cheers

Perfect location for blended family and dogs

We loved our stay here - there was plenty of room for all 5 kids and 2 dogs and right on the beach. It was great for swimming and walking and we spent 4 days doing lots of activities around Whitianga. We will definitely be booking this house again.

Fantastic spot on the beach

We had a great holiday at Ferry Landing with our adult children and two little dogs. The location was amazing right on the beach and a short ferry ride to Whitianga. Lovely cafes a short walk away too. The house was very comfy with 2 bathrooms, and had everything we needed. We so enjoyed our stay, and will book again, it was perfect .

A wonderful spot for a family holiday

We had 4 lovely nights here. It’s a comfortable bach in a gorgeous location, right on a stunning beach overlooking Shakespeare Cliffs. You can gather mussels off the beach and hubby enjoyed some fishing too. We loved the abundance of walks and listening to the waves. It was super relaxing.

Perfect location, right on the beach. Plenty of room, well stocked with kitchen supplies, games, books, cleaning supplies etc. Very short walk to the ferry over to Whitianga, and a quick stroll to Lost Springs. Thanks again.

Incredible location, relaxed stay

Couldn’t wish for a better location - waking up with the sunset over the beach, walking to ferry landing and catching the tiny ferry to Whitianga, enjoying the rope swings hanging off the pohutakawa. Comfortable, loved house you can truly relax in with a great, communicative host. Brilliant, quintessentially kiwi getaway!
