Peaceful and spacious
Highlights:- The view was absolutely stunning - waking up to this view was the absolute highlight of our trip.- Close proximity to the Okiato car ferry, which made a day trip to Paihia so easy.- Great communication with Bach Care staff. They were very accommodating of our requests, including bringing along our small dog- Plenty of space to spread out, huge balcony and garden (great for the dog!)- Well equipped kitchen and 2 bathrooms- Easy self check-in using lockboxDrawbacks:- Dirty cutlery and crumbs in sink upon arrival- TV is tiny for a house of this size - the size of a computer monitor haha! However, we spent most of our time out and about so this didn't bother us too much.
