We loved our stay at this Piha bach — beautiful, private, and with amazing views. It’s comfortable, very well maintained, and equipped with everything we needed and short walk to the beach. A genuinely relaxing spot in any weather (sunshine or pouring rain!!). We’d happily stay again.

Dan & partner were great guests would gladly host them again, thanks for leaving our Bach as you found it.
We were spoiled! Such an incredible spot and a lovely Bach - Jon and Max have created a relaxing oasis. Loved the Adirondack chairs, they reminded us of home.

Larry and Margaret were great communicates at all times.We have never had such kind guests who made treats for us as well as left beautiful infused oils to diffuse.
The Bach was left as they found it and I understand they made contact with the neighbors immediately. Great guests, lovely people. Please come again any time.
Charming cottage, clean and comfortable. We especially enjoyed the wood-burning fireplace. Road is a bit tricky - very narrow with locals speeding around blind corners. If you're a timid driver don't attempt this road. Access to amazingly beautiful hike to falls.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this Piha gem. The house is beautiful, comfortable and has everything you might hope to need on a holiday. The location perfect and the outdoor shower is something very special
Would definitely come back.
This is a true gem. The house is fantastic, the view is amazing and the hospitality of Jon and Maxine could not be better !!! The house is equipped with everything you need for a pleasant stay. It was spotless clean and decorated with good taste. The location is ideal, close to the beach

Everything that we had hoped for when we planned our visit to Piha. Comfortable, well equipped private cottage with fabulous views and sunsets. Easy walk to beautiful Piha Beach. The hot water outdoor shower was a treat and you saw and heard nothing but the surf.

Gorgeous!
A beautiful renovation, incredibly clean and very comfortable. We loved being nestled in the pohutakawas while watching the weather roll in over the waves.

Fantastic guests, would have them back to stay anytime.
This bach is lovely - not only is it in a great location with views of Piha beach, but it feels entirely private as well. The bach itself has been really well renovated, with lovely little character touches combining comfort and style. Communication with the owners was excellent.
Everything about this Bach is 'spot on'; the elevated location a couple of minutes from the beach, stunning ocean view, lovely bush setting, beautifully renovated & decorated Bach retaining it's original charm, and plush beds and lounge furniture. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay - thank you!!!

The perfect guests. We couldn’t tell they had stayed at the Bach, it was beautifully cleaned, thanks guys and do come again.
Second holiday at the Piha bach and we couldn't have asked for anything more. Great private location, retro refurbished house, fantastic views, great layout inside, beautiful native gardens and more. Only downside is we had to leave.
