Snow on the Beach
This is a fantastic property on an awesome piece of real estate. not quite snow on the beach but it was raining hard and very very windy when we arrived. We knew it was winter in New Zealand and that we had a beach property so not unexpected. Great location to go see everything from the mud pools/geysers in Rotorua, Hobbiton movie set close to Katikati and even Mount Maunganui (awesome views). Lynette the host was awesome and made us feel welcome. Hard to find in the dark, especially in the rain so I recommend arriving in the daylight hours !!!

Lovely relaxed setting.
This place is a gem. The location is superb, only a short walk down to the beach which was great for fishing. The cabins are comfy and clean and we loved the covered deck for sitting and admiring the ocean and the sunset. Lynette is an awesome host, friendly and helpful. We loved our stay.

Paradise
Wonderfully appointed cabins with quality bedding and everything you need for a restful getaway from life's stressors. It's super quiet with just the sound of the sea and the off moo from the cattle. The beach is your own, so private and absolutely stunning. Oh and the hot tub is the icing on this fabulous coastal cake.

Beach Break
Great place to stay, this place is the quintessential Bach. Our family particularly liked the shaded outdoor area as you can sit out there most of the day without the sun getting you. All our meals we sat out there ate our meals and marvelled at the view. Another big thumbs up is the Hot Tub. It’s easy to use and yet again you get to just relax and take in the wonderful view.
