"great location and very clean. Only thing feel needs to be updated is that the bathroom has the smallest basin. "

"Lovely outlook and very clean. Cute and cozy little cottage. Lovely host."

"This was a great place to stay and Tania was accommodating to us as overseas visitors with extra explanation of how things work etc. Very close to beach and amenities."

"Great place , classic kiwi batch with a nice kitchen and dishwasher! which was a nice surprise. Well laid out , good shower , comfy lounge ,comfy beds, beautiful views of hillside and estuary. Good parking, nice neighbors. Advice you take your own big umbrellas for shade on deck. Can park a 6mtr boat on grass then 2 to 3 vehicle's. Only con would be no details on rubbish collection. We found the pamphlet on the last day. Tairua is awesome, not has busy as Whiti or Pauanui but still has...

"Love orere point"

"A surprising weekend on many levels, not least our interactions with the host. A very unique encounter."

"We enjoyed our stay in a typical kiwi bach. Everything we needed was there. The fridge/ freezer was not ideal as the freezer door did not close and was propped closed with a rock. Otherwise we we were very happy and had.a great short break"

"A wonderful place to unwind and enjoy a relaxing beach holiday. We loved the house. It’s simple and homely, yet everything you need is here. The beds and sofas are comfy, and the kitchen is well stocked. The view of the sea and the trees is fabulous. We are sad to leave."

"Great size and love the decks and the view! Suggestions: Better beds in the sleep out! Particularly the bunk beds!!! The ladder fell and almost hit one of the kids who was sleeping in the double bed. Because it’s a sleep out, all of the beds should be a series of bunk beds instead of the two double and queen beds. It needs a fan too as it was very hot! The fridge is great in there. I would suggest glassware that is usable for 13 including proper water glasses that are not so small and more...

"Loved the stay. Hot water kept on tripping but it was hot anyway so not too much of a problem."

"Beautiful grounds and lovely, private cottages. Very well equipped. Perfect for a weekend away"

"Had a great stay, perfect amount of room for the 8 of us and good facilities. Thank you very much."

"We had a family Easter - ages ranging from 2 to 78 and it was perfect. We will hire this Bach again."

"Great little bach with excellent outdoor seating, umbrella, bbq. Sunny spot, minutes from beautiful beach. Really great overall."

"Although this property is within easy access to the beach and the river we found the bedrooms lacked storage space, the outdoor furniture was very difficult to manage as it is heavy, unstable and hard to move. Being able to spend as much time as possible outside is important for a family. We used the bar b que and found only 2 burners worked. One of the bedrooms had not been cleaned properly when we arrived and there was glass on the floor in the childrens room causing an injury luckily to an...

"Great location walking distance to beach and amenities."

"Very friendly and accommodating hosts, quiet and relaxing setting, fabulous views. Would definitely return."

"Arrived late and unit was open ready for us very accommodating "

"This is a great location in Tairua. We had the two bedroom upstairs villa which is a little dated. Huge main bedroom and ensuite. The second bedroom was combined with a lounge so nowhere really to sit for a chat without being in with the kids. The kitchen was really just a couple of cupboards and a bar fridge. But all was very clean, beds comfortable, great location. The managers were lovely. We will stay again."
