Great spot!
This is a really great place to stay. My husband and I stayed here for 11 nights with our young son and dog and we really enjoyed our stay. The house was nice and tidy and had everything you could possibly need for a bach stay. Was a good location, close to the beach and had incredible views!definitely

Lovely seaview escape!
Cosy little bach, everything looked just like the photos. Great place to get away from the hustle & bustle of the city, and even better that we could bring our dogs. The view is amazing, especially at sunset. Just remember to bring insect repellent :) Would love to stay again if we were in the area.

Awesome stay!
We had a great week’s holiday. The bach is very comfortable and clean, with everything you need. The view is epic and we loved being able to use the kayaks. Owners were friendly and check in a piece of cake, as well as easy communication. We will be back.

Far North Beauty
Wonderful spot for a far North Adventure. Great location with several stunning beaches nearby. The home was bigger than we expected, we took our family of 4 & the kids each had a friend. Rauiri was super responsive and helpful in messages. The hosts have made staying so simple, kids loved all the different board games. Sound house, we left early this morning to avoid the cyclone but certainly felt safe enough. Thanks guys, Would love to visit again when summer decides to stick around!

Amazing Place to stay in Whatwhiwhi
Excellent Host and accomadation in Whatwhiwhi. My wife and I,my two adult sons stayed for two nights whilst attending a Tangi in Kaneponia. The holiday home was spotless and well suited for our family. The facilities that are available from our host where well appreciated especially the heat pump which cooled us down in the summer heat (over 28 degrees celius). Close to the sea,the views are outstanding and the sunsets were unbeliveable. I could rate this accomadation alot higher than the 5 stars. Thank you Ruari

Gorgeous wee Bach - shame about the weather!!
We loved this little place & enjoyed touring around in the howling wind & torrential rain. All it needed was better weather.

Beuatiful sea views and close to a cafe, restaurant and takeaways which was really great. The bach had everything we needed and was perfect for us as we could take our dog. Fully fenced and a gate which was fabulous.

We absolutely loved staying here - such a beautiful spot, and a fantastic bach. Loved the option (which we took up) to hire kayaks! Full kitchen was fantastic too, made everything super easy for us. Hope to be back again!

All good things come in small packages
My family and I had a wonderful stay in this property. For its size it has everything, along with the spectacular views. Communication with the hosts was easy and hassle free. They thought of everything in making sure your stay was was a home away from home. Thank you Ruari. Would totally use again and recommend to all. We miss it already! A
