Right in town
Older home close to town, clean, comfortable, well provisioned. Access details were not forthcoming until after checkin time, which was a bit stressful as we had travelled a considerable distance to Whakatane, other than that, a great place to relax, and enjoy the area. Have stayed before, will stay again.

Absolutely enjoyable stay
We absolutely loved this whare. It was homely, comfortable, was perfect for our weekend & is close to everything. I have gone so far as to saving your number in my phone Ani as I know we will be coming back again in summer to enjoy the deck area with whānau. Ngā mihi.

Delightful stay
It’s a cute little house with a great big deck in back - proximity to central shopping area, ocean and wananga was excellent. Kitchen is tiny but doable. We had everything we needed and had a happy and relaxed stay. Addition of another mirror would be my only suggestion.

A great place to stay
An awesome place to stay, walking distance to everything. If you are going to book, make sure you get access details the day before as we were stranded trying to contact anyone to get into the property. Even Book a bach had trouble contacting the owner to get access info, which resulted in us being stranded outside the property for quite some time, exhausted after a long trip. The stay itself was awesome, as was the property, but soured due to the lack of communication from the owner.

Great Spot But Hopeless Check in
We had a lovely stay in this bach once we got inside. It had a nice, relaxed atmosphere and everything we needed for a great stay. Unfortunately, when we arrived the host hadn't updated the information for getting into the property and we spent alot of time trying to follow incorrect instructions before ringing book a back to try and get the contact details of the owner who asked us to wait to 40 minutes until someone could come and let us in and finish cleaning the rooms. Make sure you double check you have the correct check in instructions before you leave! Otherwise it was a great spot for an awesome family holiday and I would totally reccommend it!
