Great island holiday accommodation
Michelle was great in opening up her lovely Bach to us. The place was tidy, and close to Palm Beach, the perfect spot for a lovely island holiday. I’d recommend Michelle as a host, she was great in communicating and check in details were spot on. Thanks very much to Michelle for a brilliant summer vacation.

Great Stay
The location of this bach is ideal - handy to several beaches, vineyards and shops. A large house with plenty of room for extended family stays. It suited us perfectly as pet friendly to boot.

perfect for a family gathering
This is a large house which was perfect for 9 of us, having the extra ensuite was good. The property sits in the middle of the island with easy access to the beach 3min drive to palm beach or a 15min walk down hill. the kitchen was well stocked but we could have done with more than 1 pot. The tv was triky/impossible to get goin... possibly take an hdmi cable and a laptop.. not many games so pack your cards and monopoly...

Fabulous spot for a family
We had a lovely four days at this property. Plenty of space for the kids to roam, very clean, comfortable beds and a short drive from beautiful Palm beach. Also loved having Ostend right there for coffee and amenities. Highly recommend.

Great for large families
Quite a large house, plenty of beds (that were comfy enough) to suit a group of girls, linen charge extra, location fab if you don't mind catching the regular buses everywhere but within walking distance to supermarket. A little bit tired but overall suited our needs and had everything we needed.

Convenient on Waiheke
Bach is fairly basic but had what we needed for a short weekend away. Was well situated for public transport with a bus stop 1min walk away or a short walk to Ostend for supplies.

Family time
A get together to celebrate family. The house was spacious and clean, with heaps of room for the 6 of us that stayed. Being able to have my two little dogs with us during such a special time, made the occasion complete. Thank you Michele!

Central family friendly flat section home
Spacious home on huge flat section with flat access to home & flat off street parking for 2-3 cars (which is very unusual on Waiheke). Perfect for small children or small dog as both front and back ranchsliders open onto fully fenced decks. Beds were very comfortable. Everything was available to suit up to 10 people comfortably. Would stay again

Great home for large groups!
House was great for a large family gathering and pretty much was how it looked in photos! Quite clean apart from a few cobwebs and ideal having two bathrooms and toilets. Really handy location to Ostend shops, markets and buses AWesome to be able to take our little dog!
