Beautiful View

Our stay was great, the view is amazing and you can hear the ocean while you’re sleeping which is so relaxing. There is fun stuff to do around town aswell. We hired a quad bike from down the end of the street next to fish and chip shop Looks better then the photos

Kicking Back in Ahipara

Really private and quiet location, with beautiful views and very comfortable bed. If you're looking for posh, this is not your place, but if you're looking for ease and comfort and beautiful views, this is your place! And we brought our little dog so that was great! :)

Gorgeous location

Lovely little spot, close enough to town but far enough away that you have peace. Check in was super smooth and communication was quick and clear. Would 100% stay again. Do be aware you might get woken up by the birds who have made a wee home in the roof 🐦

Best spot in Ahipara

Old school kiwi Bach, small and basic but everything you need. Beautiful views of the Maunga and the setting sun. This was our second year in a row and we’ll keep going back as long as we can!

Relaxing and away from the hussle and bussle

With no TV or Wifi it meant that there was plenty of time to relax, play games, wander the beach and and take a break from technology. A lovely wee relaxed place with all the basics covered and beautiful beach just a wander away.

Disappointing

Cabin was clean and tidy. Nice view. Warm . It was not clearly stated the sleeping arrangements. The bedrooms are completely separated in a seperate cabin. Mentioned wifi in the add but the day before were told there wasn’t any . Very basic and most of the cabin is old and wearing out. Over priced for what you get

Wonderful location and outlook and sweet wee house

The stay was good, and has a lovely feel to the property. We just spent quite a bit of time re-organising fridge and settings as it wasn't cold. Some areas weren't so clean, and place could do with plus detergent and a few other essentials. Cheers

Nice, basic accommodation

I stayed here for one night and it was pretty adequate. The bed was good, the layout nice and the location had lovely views, with the sound of the Tasman Sea just over the dunes. The manager did not communicate instructions through the application which caused a little confusion for me but we sorted it out after I called Vrbo for clarification. The place was generally clean, but some of the glassware in the cabinet needed to be washed. I would’ve done it because I’m like that but there wasn’t any dishwashing soap available. The container was empty. The property is set back from the road down the driveway and could use a brighter number so it can be seen/found more easily especially in low lighting situations like sunset or night time. But overall a very basic and generally comfortable space to land for a night or two.
