Perfect getaway to the beach

Puka Lodge is exactly where you should stay if you're looking for a classic kiwi beach holiday. The beds are comfy, house is clean and had everything you could want, games, books, bikes, bbq and great backyard. Nice and close to the beach and not far from the shop & cafe/bar. Will definitely be back.

Wonderful stay

We had such a wonderful stay here. So clean and tidy. The beds were comfy and lots of nice fluffy towels. The outdoor games were a big hit with the kids. The early check in and late check out made our weekend so much more relaxing, feels like we’ve had a nice long holiday!

Great place for a family!

We really had a great time. Very comfortable, spacious and clean place with plenty of toys/games to play with the kids. Very relaxing and close to the beach. Pauline was great for the communication and providing portacot and high chair for our child. We definitely recommend this place as we all had a lovely time.

I spent 3 months staying in this Waikanae Beach bach. It was simply perfect. The beach is near and you hear the waves outside. Beautiful garden with many native birds visiting. There is a long covered deck if you want to be protected from the sun, and an open one that receives the evening sun for comfortable dinners outside. The place feels like a home. It is well equipped and very comfortable. The hosts were great. Discreet yet attentive. I truly enjoyed my stay.
The beach nearby is stunning. The bach is close to many parks and trails.

Great little getaway

We had a very comfortable stay at the batch on a quiet street in Waikanae beach, had everything we needed, the place was clean, even had a cot and high chair for our little fella. Best part for us was the huge fully fence yard. Great communication with the hosts. Thank you for a lovely stay

A lovely relaxed vibe at this well-looked after property. Great communication and follow-up with the owners. Great space for bikes, backyard cricket, bbqs and reading on the deck. Great location with a short walk to the beach. Thanks for having us!

Great family break

This compact bach had all we needed for our family stay. Plenty of outdoor space and lots of games for the kids. Lovely just sitting outside on the verandah too. Really appreciated the kitchen and pantry having all the essentials. Despite staying over New Year it was a super quiet area and just a short walk to the beach. Great communication from the owners as well.

Wonderful little get-away

The hosts have created a wonderful space for families and friends to gather. A great fenced back garden for the kids to roam and play while the adults relax on the deck. The location to the beach and other amenities is convenient and an easy walk. Everything you need in the kitchen for cooking and enough bedrooms/beds for everyone. They were very accommodating for my toddler's needs with a crib and highchair which I really appreciated as it makes international travel so much easier and lighter! I would definitely return to this property for future stays. Thanks for having us!

Excellent and Pleasant Stay

The property was clean and tidy. Pauline was really good with communication and upon our request provided an extra heater. We were in constant rush during our stay hence didn't get to enjoy the house. However, it is a well appointed house with nicely stocked kitchen - condiments, soup cans, milk, orange juice. It gives a good mix of modern comforts (Heat pump, washing machine) and good old Kiwi Bach living. Will definitely stay and recommend others.

Relaxing break

We really enjoyed our stay and appreciated the complimentary items. It was very clean and tidy, beds were comfortable. Our child enjoyed the games that were in the shed. It was a short walk to the beach which we did most days. We would definately love to stay their again as it suited all our requirements.

Fantastic Family Batch

Ok believe it or not. This batch had everything lol. Literally everything. Most batches I go to have the bear minimum. It reminded me of being at my mums. I love the beach being near where walked to every day. Kids had so much fun playing outside in the big back yard and there were loads of toys to keep them occupied. I love how it provides food basics, or was you could use what you needed and replace it with other essentials kind of vibe. Very cool. It has limited internet, which we ran out of in 1 day. A-bit annoying tbh but we managed. But over than that 5 stars..
