Beachside Bach

Great little bach with personality with everything you would need for a good holiday whether hot and sunny or wet and windy. Located right on the beach for walks and swims and handy to the shop and cafe in Pakawau. Easy instructions and very good communication with the owner. We would love to stay again some time in the future. Thank you for sharing your special place with us.

Gorgeous Getaway

Thank you for a wonderful stay. A comfortable and well set-up beach house in a truly stunning location - plenty of space for five adults. Wonderful to be lulled to sleep at night and woken in the morning by the gentle sound of the tides - was almost like having a private beach. Hard to leave, and would love to return.

We had a wonderful few days so close to the beach- bird watching, swimming, & beach cricket. Great for families with plenty of walks and things to do close by. The bach was clean and had everything we needed.

Christmas in Pakawau

Lovely property, with plenty of accomodation, directly on the beach, and outdoor space. We were 8 friends who spent a birthday and Christmas at the beach, played with the water toys and cooked lots of food.
