Awesome stay at the Kiwi Bach! Fantastic spot right by the beach with incredible ocean views. The house was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. Check-in was easy and communication from the host was great. Would definitely recommend and stay here again.

It was great, once we got there, the road in was pretty shocking, but it was a fabulously relaxing, well appointed place. Really with the cozy wood burner and views of the sea. Would like to come back for longer.

The location is great, just across the road from an awesome coast. The bach is tidy with a good kitchen and welcoming lounge. Bedrooms were spot on. Hot water was a bit sketchy, but that may have been me. Overall, highly recommended for a stay in a coastal environment spanning a sandy beach and rocky coast.
