Great place to stay ....

The flat was in an ideal location for our specific needs, though a little away from Waihi Beach itself. It was spacious and roomy, immaculately presented with everything we needed, and we had a most comfortable stay. Only concern was the lack of a handbasin in the bathroom/toilet, which meant washing hands and cleaning teeth in a basin also used for dishwashing - future guests may find this more of a deal breaker than we did, and owners could usefully consider rectifying if possible. Overall though a very good stay at a very competitively priced property, and hopefully we will be able to return quite soon.

Spacious and clean

This flat was perfect for our new years stay- clean, well equipped and plenty of indoor and outdoor space for our 10 month old to tear around. The oven/cooktop was a little hard to cook a meal with, but the bbq was awesome. The location was excellent- a 5 min ealk to the beach, or a 5 min drive up to the bowentown beach which had surf life guards and a café at the camp ground.

Nice clean property, great value for money and good communication with the owner

The only shortcoming with the property was the 2 element cooktop, otherwise it was well appointed and in good condition, relative to the amount we paid. The owner has a very well presented garden, walking distance to the beach and just round the corner from the Bowentown boat club if you want somewhere close by for a meal or drink.

A Nice tidy holiday stay

Was perfect for the weekend luckily someone could chrome cast onto the TV for the Rugby. That would be my only issue with it, should let people know TV does not work and you need to chrome cast from your phone, but other than that it had everything you needed, and it was very comfortable and well stocked with great communication and easy access. We all had a wonderful holiday.

A stay near the sea

The bach was roomy and very quiet. We were happy with our stay. However, there were some negatives. The TV did not work - probably because of the previous people. However a neighbour came the second night and fixed it. The outside shower was difficult, partly because of having to have three taps running and no instructions and because the taps were a bit stuck. However, again the neighbour showed us what to do. The clock was not working, two light bulbs were not working, the hand sanitiser was empty as was the body wash. I do personally dislike steel coat hangers. I thought it would be good for someone to check that everything is working and topped up. However, we did have an enjoyable stay and certainly loved the location and the spacious unit and were grateful to the host for organising someone to fix the TV and shower.

Great beach bach experience

This is a great little property with everything we needed to have a family beach holiday. The gardens were beautiful and we could easily walk to the estuary, and beaches a short drive away. Communication and access was very easy thank you.

Perfect for the three of us.

Perfect for the three of us, plenty of space, comfortable beds, everything we needed. We enjoyed the garden view and it was a very short walk to the ocean side and an equally short walk to the inlet side. Waihi beach was a short drive away with a supermarket, cafes and boutique shops. The only drawback was that the 2 element stove was incredibly slow to cook anything but we were on holiday so not such a problem, we were thankful for a great BBQ.
