Great location, clean and comfortable.

Just as advertised this is an older bach, clean and comfortable, in a great location a minutes walk from beach, shops and cafes and yet quiet and private, in an elevated position to catch views of the sea and Kapiti Island, and good afternoon sun, for a very affordable fee. We appreciated the excellent communication from our hosts, thank you.

Great Location, Very Comfortable

We had a great stay here, it is very close to the beach and Paraparaumu Beach shops. The property is easy to find and the off street parking is easy to navigate in and out. The house is nice and comfortable with a fantastic view of Kapiti Island.

Great convenient bach

The property was very near shops, minutes from beach and a great Bach for just a couple or small family. The owner was a pleasure to speak to and was always available. Would highly recommend the property

Beautiful tidy wee whare right next to the beach and shopping area. We particularly enjoyed the comfort and privacy of the indoor and also the outdoor area,with a peak of the ocean close by. The photos dont really do the place justice , you have to visit for yourself to know what i mean

Paraparaumu beach

A spacious home, handy to the shops and beach. We were very thankful for the air conditioning. Easy to find and nice and quiet. The master bedroom was nice and spacious. The deck needs replacing and it looks like the host is replacing this now.

Coming back to Golf Rd

Amazing..... Kapiti Island is a beautiful place to see in the morning and taking a stroll down memory lane along the beach.. Managers/Owners are very easy to communicate with and very accomodating. As a person who grew up in the Kapiti Coast, this will be mine and my family's destination spot. Hoping to beable to come back with whole family next time..... Well worth the stay... Thank you very much

Kapiti Bach

Our stay was ok, but found some basics lacking and the property has had some renovation, but there is still a lot to be done to bring it up to scratch. Firstly the building is old and decrepid, with rotting weatherbords evident. The bathroom window ledge has been taped up and painted to hide the rot, with the outside so rotten, it's a wonder the window frame doesn't fall out. The house needs repiling, as you're nearly running from the bedroom to the kitchen. Most doors don't fit well. Venetian blinds old and tatty. The above oven fan is disgusting. No female hygiene container in bathroom. Lounge poorly lit. The 2 tin stools in the kitchen are disgusting.The site should be taken off the market until improved, and guests shouldn't be asked to take their own rubbish away at end of stay. Host was easily contactable, and beautiful view of the beach and Kapiti Island

The property had basically everything that we needed for a comfortable stay. Yes it is an older property; but it's tidy and in a good location, handy to the beach and shops. It's in a quiet location, nestled amongst other properties but with a sense of privacy and a nice slightly limited view of the sea and Kapiti Island. You can see the South Island in the distance on a nice day. We'd look to use it some time in the future.
