Top notch!

A Bach with character and everything you need. Having the fire set and ready to light was much appreciated when arriving on a dark, wet night! So great to be able to bring our dog who loved the beach proximity for walks.

The perfect Waihi Beach bach

The bach is in a great location, a short walk to the beach, the shops and the RSA. It is well equiped, including some very cool games that we hadn't seen before. Fully deserving of the good reviews from others who have stayed there before us.

About the host

Hosted by thekays

Host profile image
We purchased this bach after 30 years of family holidays at Waihi Beach where we dreamed of one day owning our own piece of this paradise.
We have fond memories of the many baches we rented over the years, and are thrilled to now share this home with other families.

Why they chose this property

We love holidaying at Waihi Beach. The beach is safe for swimming and surfing and you can easily walk the track to Orokawa or The Trig. There are many excellent cafes and restaurants nearby and unique shopping in the village. The Hauraki Rail Trail is great for biking or day hikes.

What makes this property unique

This 1950's bach is ideally suited to people who want a traditional NZ holiday just one block back from the beach.
We aim to keep this bach reasonably priced by not charging a mandatory cleaning fee, damage deposits, or extra per person charges. There are extra squabs for children to sleep in the lounge or on the extra single bed. We don't want loud parties at the bach (we like our neighbours!), but you are welcome to have friends/family gather for meals or happy hour.
Pets and children welcome.
