Excellent value for money

What a lovely place and such awesome hosts! Aside from the house ventilation being a bit noisy and firm (but still comfortable enough) beds, these were quite minor considering the price range for such a lovely space. We are very grateful, and we are looking forward to our next visit - thank you so much Marg and Des!

Home Away From Home

Cute and cosy! Well equipped kitchen....had books galore, if the weather wasn’t too great 🙂... Beautiful gardens. Quiet neighbourhood. Close enough to the beaches. Fully fenced so our dog was able to walk around freely. The hammocks on the extensive decking is a must try for a lazy relaxing afternoon! Probably would be a good thing to have a blind on the shower window 😉 Thanks for having us at 21 Te Haumi 👍

Peaceful paradise inTe Haumi

We stayed three nights at this beautiful Te Haumi property and absolutely loved it. The house was clean and well set up, with three comfortable bedrooms and quality bedding. The kitchen and bathroom were modern, with a great shower and a bath that was perfect for relaxing after a day out exploring.The section was a real highlight - fruit trees and native bush at the back where we saw tūī and heard ruru at night. The area felt really safe and peaceful, and it was only a short drive to the beach and local walking tracks.This was the perfect base for our time in the Bay of Islands. Highly recommended!

2 night stay

We stayed 2 nights during ex tropical cyclone Tam. So spent a lot of time indoors. The house was well set up for this and we had a great time. Des checked in to see if we were okay which was nice. Could stay for a week and just read the variety of books on the shelves. Overall a comfortable stay.

Excellent as always

Not the first time we've stayed here and hopefully not the last. Cosy idyllic holiday home that provides more than you could need.Only a 2 minute drive to the main beach and Paihia town/shops.Hosts are lovely. We usually stay in very nice hotels and this place was booked last time by us out of urgency & it totally changed my perception of booking a bach. We would gladly return here over and over.
