I didn’t expect much. I knew I was renting simple accommodations, in a beautiful, fairly remote area, during peak season. And we were going to pay a lot for. So the bar was already set low. What frustrates me about this house is how little care the owners appear to put into this house. I understand the nature of the bach is, upon leaving, the guest is expected to clean and make the house tidy for the next. But this house does not appear to have been properly cleaned in decades. There is a level of grime that appears to have a foundation originating from 1981. I heard a large critter scrurry across the floor at night and there was evidence of there presence on the floor. Along the side and behind the house is a jungle of plants which has also not been cleaned out in decades, certainly provides a wonderful habitat for these critters, as well as for the mosquitos whose abundance makes sleeping with the (screenless) windows open impossible. This may be a good time to describe the composting pile directly next to to the back door ( which is the only entry which works with a key). Composting is great and is a perfect way to dispose of refuse in this national park, but having it so close to the house is not ideal. The beds are fairly comfortable and because we were traveling within New Zealand had to pay for the expensive ($90!) service. We received towels (I appreciated the kitchen towels), but only bottom sheets and pillow cases and no top sheet or cover to use with the comforter. There are kayaks to use but there were only child sized life jackets. It is a place to unwind and unplug, but not providing one outlet, since the refrigerator has a plug, seems just silly (lazy). And that’s what appears to be the final assessment of this bach, there is a substantial lack of care. The owners have rented this house out 1000 times. It is a beautiful location so it sells itself. But the lack of care of the building and grounds, and simply the rental profits, appear to be the owners only concern. I must add that communication was poor. I would not have known about the key code had I not met the previous tenant on the beach. My family can enjoy ourselves anywhere but we collectively agreed that this place was a dump!
