About this property

NUMBER 28 IN THE OAKURA CIRCLE

Do you reminisce about the good old days when the family used to holiday at the beach in the good old kiwi bach. Where good times with family and friends were had, swimming, surfing, playing cricket on the lawn. Number 28 is that bach! Located in the circle a holiday hotspot right by Oakura swimming beach and the Oakura motor camp.

Oozing charm and character, in original bach condition, the kitchen and dining area are located on the top level of the bach and the view of the waves rolling in, is breath taking. From the moment you enter you will feel instantly feel relaxed, it has such a step back in time and a really great vibe.

The living area traditional with this era, encompasses a single bed and additional single bed in a sunroom area. Off the living area is the master bedroom with a double bed where adults can escape from the children's chatter. The bathroom and laundry are also located on this level. The ground level has a great games room for the kids to hang out.

No need to worry about the kids watching tv all day here, as there is no tv so you will be pleased about that. However, unlimited Wifi is a must these days, so it does come with that. A great sized fully fenced section allows the children to happily and safely play. Bring the jandals, swimmers, sun block and board games and join the Oakura beach fun.

Spend your days swimming at the stunning Oakura beach. Grab a pizza from the Black Sands Pizzeria and Bistro or take a walk up to the village shops and enjoy a bar meal at Butlers Reef.

Great location

Great place which would benefit from some upgrades such as blinds - which either don’t work or do not block out sun and need a workable fry pan - it had no handle. Other non stick pans had pcb coating and should be tossed.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
For the price paid we were very surprised at how dated and tired the property is. As the description honestly says it is an old style bach but the smell of mold when you walk in and the standard of bathroom, walls and kitchen is not what you'd expect. The exterior is also tired and dated. The double bed is small and the mattress is old but the bed linen is nice. The accommodation guide that was left out references a tv and dishwasher but there is none. There was plenty of plates and glasses etc. If the price was lower then absolutely fine but with what else is avaliable I would say either a reno with a new bed and lick of paint or a price drop is needed.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
This property is an old beach shack. The only bedroom is very small with a double bed. There are 2 single beds, one in the lounge room and the other open to the dining room. There is no TV and limited cooking facilities/equipment.

Summer Holiday

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Had a lovely stay in Oakura. We got a 'old school bach' in a great location. The bach was generally as expected but unfortunately has been very poorly maintained. Birds nesting in the wall and a major damp/mouldy smell. Fortunately we could keep the windows open as lovely and sunny. The mattress on the double bed was sadly terrible.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: House in a great location, living area ideal, Kitchen average (would be better with a dishwasher!), bedroom setups average but as expected. Leaky outdoor shower at the front was a nuisance. Would definitely recommend the location with great sea views. Oakura is a very well equipped seaside retreat with an awesome surf beach and only 15min to New Plymouth. Loved Holy Moly Guacamole!

Great location

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had an awesome time in Oakura, made even better by the sunshine. Basic accommodation but spacious living area and just a few steps to the sand. Main bed not very comfortable and could do with an upgrade but otherwise all good 😊
