About this property

Iconic absolute beachfront 60s bach

Absolute beachfront, this is the ultimate 60s Kiwi bach with breathtaking views direct over the beach to Kapiti. The front wall is all glass and frames Kapiti Island. The bach is close to Waimeha Stream and a short walk along the beach to the cafes, tennis court or local shops. This is a beautiful and funky spot. Ideal for couples or a small family, this is an intimate and relaxing hideaway perfect to recharge your batteries. In the winter you may choose to sleep by the open fire and wake up to the view of the sea. Please note access to the small bedroom 2 (with bunks) is via bedroom 1 (queen bed). This is an architectural 60s building and special. Relax here with no tv. We do have wifi. There is a separate lockable shed where you can store and charge electric bikes if you bring your bikes and enjoy the kapiti bike tracks . There are also 2 manual bikes available for you.
Special conditions:
Weekends - pay 2 nights and get one free! So this means the bach is yours from Friday morning to Monday morning before 10 am. Payment in advance to confirm bookings. 2 NiGHT MIN STAY. Duvets + pillows provided. For stays over Dec/Jan 50 per cent deposit required and balance one month prior.
