Jan was very welcoming and popped by when we arrived. She was kind enough to let us borrow some shovels as we were heading to hot water beach that evening and let us know we were welcome to pick some of the plums off the tree outside. It was a simple kiwi bach and the best part is location!

A Great Stay

This was the second time we stayed. An old kiwi bach with all that is needed for a comfortable home away from home. We travelled, this & last time as a small multi generation family group. Will stay when in the area.

The location was good as close to town and beach. The accommodation was quite dated and the floors were not level which was a bit disconcerting!

Great accommodation

This Kiwi Bach was a wonderful base for us (a group of 3 friends) to explore the Coromandel Peninsula. Very comfortable, clean and tidy with all required amenities. Hosts were lovely, as was their little dog Minty. Would highly recommend!
