Incredible location

Waitangi 2024
Posted Feb. 6, 2024 on HomeAwayNine of us stayed over the long Waitangi weekend 2024. Three generations from 73 to 11. Bach was fantastic and had everything and more that we needed for our stay.
Outdoor area was amazing for the late afternoon sun to enjoy a cold beverage. Kids spent hours jumping off the jetty and paddling on the kayaks in the bay.
A large stingray spent most of our stay near the jetty and boat ramp which was a great experience.
Would definitely stay again!

Very disappointing
Posted Jan. 15, 2024 on HomeAwayThe stay didn't start well with an outside area that was unusable. Inside the kitchen was so dirty, really disappointing.
Just to let anyone know who needs to take the water taxi that it is $270 each way.
The outdoor environment is outstanding, birds, fish, stingrays. Using the kayaks was fantastic.
Overall what could have been an amazing experience was spoilt by seeing the pile of chairs on top of the BBQ before we even got inside.

I'm sorry to hear that your stay got off to a disappointing start due to the chairs stacked on the BBQ. It's disheartening when such issues impact what could have been an amazing experience. The contrast with the outstanding outdoor environment, featuring birds, fish, and stingrays, highlights the missed potential.
The information about the water taxi cost is valuable for others considering the same transportation. However, it's unfortunate that the initial impressions were marred by the sight of the pile of chairs on top of the BBQ even before entering the accommodation. It's worth noting the chairs/loungers are usually stacked in the covered BBQ area when not in use to keep them dry and away from the friendly wildlife.
On a brighter note, it's great to hear that the kayaking experience was fantastic and added a positive aspect to your stay. We take pride in our piece of paradise & thank you for your feedback to help ensure a more enjoyable experience for future guests.

Great Location
Posted Oct. 18, 2023 on HomeAwayWe had a great weekend away with family and friends. Such a great batch, generous sized bedrooms with comfortable beds. We made good use of the bbq and outdoor dinning. Looking forward to our next trip.

Great Location
Posted May 7, 2023 on HomeAwayOur family really enjoyed staying in this off the grid location. Bach is very well equipped with everything you need. We enjoyed fishing, walks up the back of the property, using the kayaks, and exploring the bay. Great outdoor filleting area, overall, very practical Bach. Thanks

Stunning location
Posted Apr. 26, 2023 on HomeAwayWe had a wonderful time despite a week of Rain! We enjoyed walks in the Forrest, fishing off the Jetty & being very cosy in the cabin with the gas heater. We didn’t use the sleepout. Great Fridge/BBQ / outdoor fire area - all so well set up - we needed into use the generator a lot as there was no sunshine - the solar would be fine on sunny days.
Our boat sat well on the mooring & was mostly protected from the ferry wake. An incredible location & a very well thought out home… we can’t wait to book again!
