Fantastic Spot

We drove up for one night from Christchurch and a great time despite the howling southerly! The location is amazing with an incredible view and the house itself is immaculate, every detail has been really well thought out and the place is beautifully done. The communication with the hosts was the best we’ve had from anywhere we’ve stayed and it’s clear that they genuinely care about you having a great time. We will definitely be back! Thanks so much!

Immaculate beach bach

This Motunau bach has been recently renovated to an extremely high standard and is the perfect getaway. We arrived to a warm fire (thanks!). Relaxing in the warm spa pool in the cold winter air, looking out over the ocean view at Motunau Island and a distant fireworks display across the water at Christchurch was a true highlight of our trip. Nikola is a great host and very receptive. We highly recommend this bach; we will be back.
