Perfect spot for a relaxing break

Loved every minute of our stay. Such a cosy Kiwi bach with everything we needed and more to make our stay super relaxed and comfortable. Comfy beds and a well stocked kitchen. Highly recommend and would love to stay again!

Amazing stay!

The bach had everything we needed. Great outside deck and umbrella. The beach close by was perfect. We can't wait to come back.

Beautiful location and secluded beach access :)

Gorgeous outdoor space and amazing location. The beach nearby was a treat and it was so nice to be able to walk up to the house after a swim and use the warm outdoor shower. Laundry facility came in handy, and extra bathroom accessed from outside meant that we weren't crawling all over each other. It could be a bit snug for 6 adults if youre spending the whole time indoors, but we spent most of it out and about or on the deck, so it wasn't an issue.

Beautiful Bach

Steve’s Bach is beautiful and was very comfy and had everything we needed including Wi-Fi. The outdoor shower was excellent and the additional bathroom was great. The house had beautiful decor and nick nacks and had a special feeling about it. We thoroughly enjoyed sitting out in the sun on the spacious deck everyday we wish we could have stayed longer. In a great location with views of the ocean . We brought our 2 pets along and they had lots of space to run around in the backyard. Thanks Steve :)
