About this property

Whiritoa_-_Location_-_Location

Family size Lockwood style bach set one house back from the beach in a great central location near the surf club. Peek views of the sea through the mature pohutukawa trees. Easy 100 metre walk to the beautiful sandy beach. 2 minute walk to shop, and the stunning, pohutukawa lined, child friendly lagoon is less than a 5 minute walk away. Scenic valley views to the west side. The property is surrounded by established trees, hedges and lawns. Enjoy eating alfresco on the deck. Comfortable beds and open plan living/kitchen design for relaxed, family friendly holidays.

We look forward to hearing from you. Philip, Sarah and Adam.

Extras: Cleaning (included); NOTE: Under Kiwi bach tradition you are expected to: Bring your own linen (towels/sheets/tea towels);

Very welcoming hosts, tidy and clean home with a great little back yard, some sea views and a gate connecting to a walk way which just added to its great location and easy walking with little kids to all the main areas - lagoon, local shop, park and surf club. Would definitely stay again and is a fabulous stay for young families wanting to enjoy this slice of paradise

Perfect Kiwi Bach and Location

We were two families staying together and this bach suited us perfectly. We loved the location especially, so close to the beach and cafe. We locked our cars when we arrived and didn’t open them again till we left.

Great spot and easy check in and information. There were a few things we needed that were missing - rubbish bags, light bulbs - and could have been a bit cleaner. Delicious limes!

Great location and comfy bach

The Bach is in an excellent location and has all you need for a relaxing holiday. We really enjoyed our stay. Only feedback is that there are heaps of spiderwebs inside and out of the house and lots of daddy long legs throughout. But amazing other than that 🙂

Thanks for the feedback. I'll make sure we give it an extra clean through the quieter periods. Thats when the spiders accumulate!

Two day stay

Lovely spacious wooden home, well laid out. Comfy beds, blankets could do with a dry clean. Shower could do with an update but work well all the same with heaps of hot water. Super close to the beach.

I absolutely loved this.

We were there during the cyclone and had no power phone Internet and it was so good. We actually had to talk with each other. We walked along the beach the next day and made heaps of memories. We will be back.

Convenient spot in Whiritoa

The property was well appointed and as described, in a super convenient location near the store and the beach. Unfortunately we were disappointed at the cleanliness of the house as there were a lot of spider webs and dead insects and it needed a good vacuum. We suspect it hadn’t been used in some time and hadn’t been checked prior to our arrival.

Lovely stay, perfect location with gorgeous outdoor area. Maybe better for a summer stay as we found it a bit cold in winter. An extra heater and some hot water bottles or electric blankets would be great.

Whiritoa Bach

Description was 100% accurate, 1 min walk to the beach. Gorgeous views of the hills behind with plenty to do in the area. Couple of great spots for exploring. Our host was easy to contact when we couldn't locate toilet paper. There was also a lovely mandarin tree that was open to use.

Last Minute time away for the workaholic of the house.

With only a few days to find accomidation to escape home when forced to take some annual leave, i was so happy to find this bach. Bach had everything we needed and Mr 3yo loved "beach house" Such a great little place away from the hussle and bussle. We will definitely be back again. Thanks Adam for making everything so easy.

Queens Birthday Getaway

Lockbox made it easy to access property. A wet weekend, but good to chill out and relax, which is what we wanted. My granddaughter loved the. Mandarin trees, and we made use of the rosemary growing in the garden. Great to hear the thundering waves crashing onto the beach. Would have been even better to have had a view to the beach, but the beautiful pōhutukawa trees are a vista themselves. Thanks for allowing us to use your home. We could be back!
