Great little Bach like a home away from home, well equipped and presented. In excellent location for accessing everything the Mount and Tauranga has to offer. Definitely would stay again.
The location was very handy to the work we were doing at Baypark Arena. Although it's only a few hundred metres away, even in busy days, it took about 7 min to get there. Much better than staying on Tauranga city. Close to beach and cafes. Thank you
Had a great stay, very clean and tidy, well equipped kitchen, nice little collection of toys and books to keep the kids entertained. Would stay again next time we’re here!
Exceeded expectations for a second time after staying here 4 years ago. Always feels so homely and clean when we arrive at this bach. Has everything you need. Loved our stay despite the weather. Was equipped with tv and dvd player keeping the kids entertained on the rainy days.
Great communication with host. Clean fresh bach with everything we needed. Modern clean bathroom and kitchen had everything we needed. the bike were good and the-beach chairs and umbrella were a great extra. will recommend to family and friends.

Every detail was catered for.Kitchen had little extras in case you had forgotten. Kids toys, books, bikes , games all perfect for a family.Good quality linen throughout with very comfy leather lounge suite. Bayview close by, parks and beach very close. Quiet and peaceful. Outstanding.
Immaculate, well equipped, very comfortable stay. Great walk to beaches! Close to Bayfair Mall for anything you need. Quiet and really comfy beds.Lots to do and see in area, and highly recommend walk around base of Mount Maunganui. If we could give 10 stars out of 5 we would.
I can really give this host a 5 star rating without a doubt. The house was equipped with everything you could possibly need. We really enjoyed our stay as a family and will definitely recommend this beautiful spot. 10/10
