Idyllic rural getaway
We were staying in the area to attend a family reunion and this cottage was perfect for us. 10 minutes from Papamoa where our event was based, it provided us a beatiful and peaceful setting to relax inbetween other activities. Beautiful spaces both inside and outside, it had everything we needed and more. would definitely recommend.

Our Home away from home in Tauranga
We travel to Tauranga regularly and this is the only place we would stay. We love the peace and quiet of being in the country and yet still being handy to all of the amenities of Tauranga. The host are very welcoming and go out of their way to make your stay enjoyable. We travel with our small dog and she also enjoys her time in the country.

A perfect country oasis
We returned to this bach (it's really a full size house) as we had previously enjoyed our stay here. The on site hosts go out of their way to ensure that you have everything that you need and go the extra mile to ensure your comfort. As an example we arrived on a cold winter's night and the lights were turned on, the blinds/curtains drawn and the heatpump on. After a busy and cold day it was nice to walk into such an inviting environment. It was also a nice change to wake up the next day to the absolute peace and quiet of the country. As a bonus we were also able to have our fur baby stay with us. We would highly recommend this bach to anyone looking for somewhere to stay in the Tauranga region.

Great value family accommodation
A very tidy accommodation option, perfect for a family stay. Only a couple of suggestions - the lack of/limited internet was a bit of a problem (especially with teenagers), as it was difficult to look up info about Mt Maungonui and Tauranga! Would be great to also have some brochures/tourist maps of the area for us visitors 😅. The beautiful big tv and access to Netflix was a real bonus, but only worked on the first night due to internet drop-out. Not a huge issue, but probably something that might put off some visitors. Thanks very much for your friendly welcome and lovely hospitality!

Fantastic Stay
We are well traveled Kiwis, and we previously owned an B&B ourselves. We booked the stay because we visited family who lives in the area. That said, Gary and Rita catered for all our needs. The spacious house had everything we needed, for young and old. We loved the peacefulness and the park like surroundings. We could cook a family meal in the fully equipped kitchen and enjoy family time together at the amazing waterfall nearby. Gary sent us off with a bag of figs from the garden. We will definitely book at the Pukeko Inn again. Kindly. Frederick and Annemarie
