About this property

BBBach-Biggest Beach Bach Sleeps 28 + Squash Court. Price is for 10 guests

Sleeps 28.
Amazing views over the lake in 1 direction, and over to the mountain in the other.
BBBach is great if it rains as there is plenty of space to play inside. The Squash court doubles as a badminton or sports area.
BBQ on the deck overlooking the lake.
Peaceful walks around the lake.
Close to lots of surf breaks, with Surf Highway 45 and some of the world’s top surf spots very near. Some of these are just at the end of the road.
Boat ramps close by.
Mt Taranaki for snowboarding, skiing, or tramping.
BBBach is accessible with a wet area shower, accessible bathroom, kitchen, and deck.
Family groups and clubs often want to holiday together, and BBBach with its great spaces is ideal, there is still plenty of privacy if you want it. There is only one group booking at a time.
There is a peaceful walk around the lake, and Opuanke Beach is just 2 minutes down the road or across the reserve. Plus it's only a short stroll into town where there are is a good collection of shops, restaurants and cafes, 2 supermarkets and even a movie theatre. Opunake is a nice friendly farming community, well worth exploring.

Amazing destination for a large group

We loved everything about our trip! We enjoyed the proximity to the beach, the lake and to the reserves! We really enjoyed the facility, it enabled space for different groups to find space as well as enough space for everyone to gather and enjoy a meal together. We had families from Wellington, Auckland and Northland and everyone loved it!

Great, fun place

This place was amazing. We were 14 adults and 6 children. There were plenty of things to entertain not only the kids but also the adults. Not to mention the large kitchen and dining table, making it easy to cook for such a large group. The host was also very friendly and accommodating. Will definitely stay here again in the future.

Great family space

We had a fantastic few days. Plenty to do for all ages (our group ranged from 72 - 2), eg puzzles, books, board games, squash, volleyball, table tennis, ball tag, even though the weather was very wet for most of the time and we couldnt get out as much as we would have liked.

Why they chose this property

We wanted a mix of beach, lake, bush, and quiet areas. Having the squash court sealed the deal for us, with having a very active and squash loving family.

What makes this property unique

Located inside the property is squash, badminton, table tennis and more. A huge collection of board games and Wasgij jigsaws. Quiet lakeside location.
