About this property

Family Holidays Galore

Located centrally in the heart of Pauanui on the edge of the airfield.
Plenty of space to unwind and a flat section to utilize to the fullest for all those outdoor activities with the kids.
Convenient walk across the road to the Pauanui shopping centre for all those last minute supplies or a bite to eat or coffee to go.
If you’re a family wanting to get away for a break then this is the place for you.
There is a skatebowl and playground a short distance away and loads of open space to kick a ball around in.
Great for plane spotters to watch the aircraft come and go from the comfort of your deckchair.
Modern easy clean Family Bach with the creature comforts of home

This was the perfect spot for our two families, very family friendly with lots of outdoor space, skatepark, playgrounds and shops all right there. The planes coming and going was cool for the kids to see and the house accommodated us perfectly.

Great spot and easy house to stay in, would rent again

House is in a great central location and easy to stay in. We really enjoyed our time there. We have teenage kids and they loved how close it was to the shops and the skateboard park. It was very cool seeing the planes park next door!

Excellent stay in Pauanui

This place was fantastic. Very spacious and had everything you could possibly need for a holiday. We had a smooth check in and check out and appreciated all the extras such as basic a full gas bottle and games under the tv. Would highly recommend

Perfect for the weekend away

Place was easy to find, easily accessible and in the perfect location for everything. Upon arrival, everything was tidy and well set up. Due to location, it allowed short travel (mostly walking) to everything we required and outdoor/patio with table and umbrella area was perfect for relaxing and having dinner while large living area accommodated the cooler evenings. Our dog enjoyed the stay while having an outdoor area with shade and walks around Pauanui and access to some of the beach.

Great family spot

Awesome to have the landing strip at the back of the house, our son spent his time watching planes. Great location, walking accross the road to cafe, groceries and restaurants and on the walking path to the beach, etc... Well equipped place, spacious, clean and comfortable. Just missing a high chair and potentially some stuff for kids (plastic glass/kids dvds...) We highly recommend and will come back.
