"The photos don’t do the property justice, Anna was so welcoming and made us feel at home. Only 5 minutes drive to town and so close to the beach, we’ll definitely be coming back."

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

"I have sent emails about the issues with the house"

"We knew it was likely to be rainy weather, which it was. This house was the perfect perch to watch the storms and rainbows over the bay and surrounding hills. It was well equipped with games that kept us amused learning new ones, and we enjoyed cooking dinners and breakfasts together in the also well equipped kitchen. The beds were all very comfortable and the entire place was pristine. It is an easy walk down to the water and not far from restaurants, groceries, etc. It was very relaxing...

"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...

"We loved our stay! The pictures don’t do it justice, it is such a beautiful little bach, less than 5 minutes drive to the beach. The kitchen has everything you need, and the air conditioner was a lifesaver on the hot summer evenings. 10/10 would reccomend."

"A good traditional kiwi bach, good for a break away from the city. Nice and close to the beach and tennis court, reasonably equipped."

"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...

"Booked this late minute to get out of town for the long weekend. Comfy bach, close to the beach and shops."

"The photos look really nice so it was a little bit of a surprise when we arrived to see it what it was actually like. Mould on the textured ceiling in the bedroom and found a flea in one of the beds (after waking up with bite marks), we don't have any pets so we definitely didn't bring it with us. The unit was full of the owners stuff which cluttered an already small space and made it difficult to find a place to put things. The carpet in the bedroom looked to be original and everything felt...

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

Fridge, microwave, toaster, cookware/dishes/utensils

"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...

"Wonderful accomodation. Well appointed with everything you need. Lovely outdoor setting in a lovely part of the world. Lots to do in the area. Highly recommend"
