"No frills, great location "

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

"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."

"This is a superb Kiwi bach brilliantly appointed and so much fun to stay at. With the beach 5 minutes walk away the location is superb.
