Loved staying here!

Such a wonderful part of Golden Bay, close to everything, especially Collingwood, Pakawau and incredible Wharariki Beach and Farewell Spit. Great bach which comfortably accommodated our family. Beautifully located between estuary and beach.

Where was the water?

The fridge and freezer both contained food, reducing available space for us. Surfaces were dirty. We expected to be pretty much on the beach, going by the photos. Otherwise it's a good location.

Beautiful hideaway

Our family group ranged from 12 months to 90 years old. Everyone enjoyed the stay. Comfy beds, lovely linen and great heating. Tuis and a bell bird in the garden.

Chilled out past Collingwood

Perfect quiet location bracketed by tidal estuary out from own little rock, & warm shallow swimming beach just up the road. Short walk. House had everything needed. Good deck and lounge kitchen flow to outdoors. Good bunk stack and main room inside with self contained ensuite. Kayak which is great to slip into the tidal area with. Excellent communication from the prop mgmt and simple to arrive and leave from. Just leave the bugger clean and tidy. Collingwood is 15 up the road.

Excellent Location

We loved our stay at this property - situated on a peninsula between the estuary and the beach, short access to either with the property backing onto the estuary where we spent most of our time with the younger children exploring and playing, with kayaks and other facilities provided. The extra sleepout made it easier for larger family too.

4 night break

Nice property, we all enjoyed it very much. Property was clean but the only thing we didn't like was the fridge and freezer not being empty, too much stuff from other people left behind and not enough room for our stuff for 6 people. Also under the sink there were only dirty cloth and dish brush, we didn't want to touch , apart from that overal a very plesant stay there.

A short break in golden bay

User friendly book in service and arrival instructions. The Bach was ideal for our family with heaps of room for everyone. We loved walking out onto the front beach, collecting a few cockles for tea and wading in the shallows. A beautiful mid day high tide allowed us to get the sit on kayak out into the estuary for some exploration up the creeks. The Bach was clean and tidy with a great bbq and luxury of a dishwasher. Thank you for allowing us to stay.

Great house for 2 couples. Sleepout with shower toilet great.

We loved the whole experience. From booking to arrival and getting set up. Fire at night and having the separate living space was fantastic. The kids loved playing in the sand and having an outside hot shower. The tui s, Bell birds and wood pigeons were special. We will be back.

A good place to relax and rest

A well equipped kiwi bach. Only 2 of us but had the potential to accommodate a couple of families if required. Appreciated the log fire as our time in Totara Avenue was VERY wet! Bird life in trees a treat. A quiet and restful stay.

The perfect location

A great wee hideaway, perfect location near estuary and beach. Very relaxing and perfect for the puppy, he loved the beach, as we did. Close to many walks and other area of interest.

Peaceful location

We had a great stay, everything we needed was available. The kids loved cricket on the mudflats in front of the house and crab hunting. The fire kept us toasty at night. Very happy we will be back.

A bit disappointing

We 2 were travelling with 4 family members from overseas & were disappointed that clearing/clearing some surfaces was needed. Also strange persistent smell in sleepout that was otherwise very comfortable. This was our most expensive place of 7 varied accommodation stays in the South Island from Nelson via Takaka, West coast,Karamea to Te Anau & onwards, but did not compare favourably. The property manager was responsive & helpful.
