Great Updated Kiwi Retro Bach
This bach was even better than the photos. The retro touches were fantastic. The bach has everything you need and more. We had a few rainy days but there were plenty of games and the covered outdoor area to keep us entertained - and of course the spa pool was nice too. Great that we could bring our dog. Lovely family get away and nice and close to the beach.

Another amazing stay
This was our second stay at this amazing home. Not only is the location great, but the home is perfect for a family beeak. With two little children the drive from Wellington is quick and easy which means we can make the most of the days away. The facilities at the home include books, toys and games which means we didn't have to pack the car full of our own. The host is prompt and great to liaise with. Our highlights were fish'n'chips on the beach as the sun set, relaxing on the front deck while the kids explored the yard, bike riding around town and at the park...highly recommend this host and their home.

The ultimate Kiwiana experience
This holiday home was so beautiful. A truely homely feeling, clean and tidy, and so relaxing. We were reminded of our childhood as we explored our holiday home. The decor was so beautiful and the small Kiwiana peices of furniture were just priceless. A fully stacked kitchen and ample space in the kitchen and refridgerator. So many games for our two children to amuse themselve, not to mention the amazing selection of DVD's. Our kids were fully entertained with the outdoor games and trampoline also. The spa was absolutely amazing and the fairly lights set the scene. The best part for us was the outdoor shower. What a beautiful way to end the day after an amazing day at the beach. The section was fully fenced and safe for our wee dog which was amazing. We cannot thank Karen enough for letting us stay at her beautiful beach house. A totally relaxed and wonderful holiday. Many thanks Karen.
