A great get away!

A great holiday home that was as described, fantastic location and room for the family to spread out. It had everything that we need, including equipment such as balls, table tennis table, skim board, etc... Easy walking distance to the beach, and excellent instructions for everything to do with the property.

Perfect large family bach

Stayed here with 9 of us. Was a very large and roomy home. Lots of space to not be in each others pockets. Host was very responsive to messages. Table tennis bats could use replacing and pool table is a bit wonky and needs new felt, however tthe family still made great use of these things. Puzzle selection was awesome.

This property suited our need with 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. The indoor out door flow was great and there was heaps of room for everyone. The open plan kitchen dining lounge was a fantastic space and with a large dining room table. Our guest where very grateful for such a house.

Great place to weather a storm

We had great time in Waihi during a big storm. Family enjoyed the facilities when we weren't able to make the most of the beach. When the clouds finally opened it was a awesome location close to beach and village. We'll be back!
