Quirky beach bach

For a couple in their 70s/80s it was a journey back. The decor was quirky & familiar. The back verandah was a gem catching all day sun. The perfect place for a glass of wine. Amenities were perfectly adequate & spotlessly clean. I’d hate to have to do the dusting though. Chitra checked in to make sure everything was ok - a good communicator.

A rockabilly beach-house dream

We really enjoyed our stay here in Otaki, close to the beach, great communication from the host and what a treat if you're into 50s - 60s vibe. Truly a lot of love has gone into this place.

Ideal for a restful holiday at a wonderful West Coast beach

We loved reading and dozing on the back porch. The beds were gloriously comfortable and there is plenty of interest in the house and the environment. Proximity to the beach, Te Chur coffee & ice-cream outlet and the beach store were extra bonuses.

Perfect summer break at the beach!

Peaceful, relaxing bach close to the beach. The back covered deck area is a perfect spot to read and even in the rain provided some nice shelter. Great record collection, books and magazines. Friendly host who made the whole experience an enjoyable one.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this cosy but spacious well-appointed fascinating home. The veranda provided a nice large sheltered outdoor space and the super comfy beds some great nights' sleeps, The location gave easy access to the beach for walks and sunsets too. Would definitely return!

Great place to stay as we are house painters working away from our home in the Wairarapa. Our hosts are great people who are so easy to communicate with and are accommodating to our needs. Thank you we appreciate your lovely beach house.
