This 3 bedroomed home which had a major make over in 2013, is the ideal holiday spot for people who love the options a huge private deck can give you when in holiday mode! The living space attaches to the sun filled deck with large bifolding doors giving great indoor outdoor flow, ideal for alfresco dining etc etc. There is plenty of off street parking available, perfect for those with a boat. ALL linen is provided in the base cost, with beds all made up prior to arrival.
You get a great location in the Robinson Rd area, where you'll find natural surroundings, peace & quiet, and an easy walk just around the corner to the estuary and all that it offers.
A flat easy 2km walk along the picturesque estuary takes you into town to all the shops, cafes, and restaurants as well as the ferry that can take you across to Ferry Landing. Also our Bach is situated very closely to the recently revamped Robinson Road boat ramps and trailer park, so no distance at all if you’re keen to take your boat or kayak out. Or just take a nice walk along the estuary; Mum, Dad, and the kids will love this area. A great walking track, where when the tide is out, offers a tyre swing out over the water (our young grandchildren love this!). Another huge green area is just 1 house away as well, making it an ideal spot for the kids to run round in. The open air Community Swimming Pool is also nearby at the local school.
This house has a heat pump and great insulation (all windows double glazed) which keeps the house warm and cozy during the winter months.

Really nice comfortable property for our whole family - much nicer and more spacious than the photos. Awesome communication and offer of flexibility from the hosts - highly recommend this property.
Very very nice house, a home away from home really. Everything you want and need in a beautiful and comfortable home away feom home. Highly recommended.
We had a fantastic time in the house. Whitianga is a super charming town, close to many beautiful beaches, and the cottage is in a great location within walking distance of the town center. It was clean, and everything was provided. Lovely garden and cozy seating areas. Excellent value for money. We enjoyed it so much, thank you!
An amazing place to stay in a beautiful location. The house was perfect it had everything you needed and more. Great communication with the host I can highly recommend we could of stayed for two weeks. We will be back for sure.
Thank you Alison for the hospitality of your beautiful home we will be back for sure.
Had a lovely stay at the bach. Was a really lovely place and quite central to everything. Our only minor negative comment would be the mattresses in a couple of the bedrooms were really uncomfortable and more games or kayaks would be a great addition. Thank you. We really recommend the bach.
Central location to enjoy Whitianga and the Coromandel
Quiet location and near to water. Extremely comfortable and warm house with large open plan kitchen and living room. Owner provided many little extras in kitchen cupboards and bathroom ( if case you needed them). A would return Bach😊
Great bach, clean & tidy. One of the best houses we have stayed in through BookaBach. Alison was wonderful to deal with. Promptly answered our queries. I would highly recommend.
We have just had the best week stay at this bach, in fact it’s more like a home away from home, everything you would need is there and it is immaculately clean and tidy. We have a boat and there was ample off street parking for our boat and ute. Robinson Road Boat Ramp is just around the corner probably a one minute drive which made launching so easy. The owner Alison has been so friendly and accommodating that we are already planning our next holiday, thank you again for a wonderful week.
The house is impeccable and well set up. The great outdoor space was perfect especially with the rain we had. Wouod certainly recommend for a weekend away!
