The perfect property for a relaxed family holiday. The location is spectacular and a safe swimming beach is literally across the road! This is a well-appointed holiday home. (I really appreciated the quality linen on the beds.)The host provided clear property information and instructions.We've stayed in several holiday homes in Ligar Bay and this property is now top of our list.

Perfect location

Lovely modern property in a great spot! Loved how close we were to the beach and we made the most of the kayaks provided to explore the bay. Ligar Bay is a quiet little spot (which is just what we were after) but is not far from the amenities of Takaka, making it the perfect getaway.

Perfect Getaway!

Great location for tons of adventures in the Golden Bay area! We loved that it was close to town and Abel Tasman yet even closer to the beach. Bonus are the massive glass doors and the kayaks! Ariana was an excellent host - very communicative and the house had everything anyone could need.

Great accommodation in an amazing location

Stayed here for a week with my partner and parents. Really nice place, everything in the house worked and was clean. The house is really close to the beach, but also far enough back from the main road that you can’t hear traffic. Communication with the hosts was excellent. Would definitely recommend staying here!

Modern beautiful Bach on golden bay (Ligar Bay)

Impressive well equipped Bach. Everything you need, steps from a beautiful beach. The hosts are very responsive and ready to help you get the most out of your holiday. Short drive to Takaka, cute town with lots of shops and cafes and groceries.

Fantastic Location

First and foremost, the house is in a fantastic location for Abel Tasman and Golden Bay sites. Basically, it is about 40 minutes to Tōtaranui Beach. Add to that, it is about 100 m to the Ligar Bay beach, which is nice at high tide. Pohara and Takaka are a short distance for shops and restaurants. The building is modern with the needed comforts. The big plus that there are large patio doors that can fully open. The host was responsive and helpful. Highly recommended!

Excellent Holiday Home. Walk to the beach.

We have been to the Golden Bay area of New Zealand many times over the past twenty years. This holiday home in Ligar Bay is one of the best places we have stayed. It is clean, well-stocked with everything you could need, quiet, and comfortable. It is a newer unit with tinted glass (a great thing to have in sunny Golden Bay) a robust heat pump/air conditioner, quality linen, towels, and nice, plush carpet coupled with hard floors. Blackout roller blinds on remote control is also a big plus. The host is great. She helped us with a few minor details and sorted out what was needed. The home is so close to the beach, you can literally walk there in a few minutes. A great place for anyone looking for quality in Golden Bay.

Checking in

The Stayz App. could work better. We stayed elsewhere in the same region and were out of mobile phone coverage, consequently when we got to the house and tried to retrieve the digital key code we were stranded and unable to get in. As we had already fully paid the accommodation it would have been better to provide the digital key code much earlier. With a bit of trouble we managed to access some mobile network coverage ( via WiFi ) from a local resident to be able to retrieve via the Stayz App. the necessary code. Very frustrating !

Thank you for sharing your feedback on how the Vrbo platform works with regards to accessibility, especially if you are not somewhere where you can access WiFi easily. We are sorry to hear this happened as this is the first time we have had a scenario, due to a guest being out of WiFi coverage. The Vrbo platform recommends to property owners, they send check in details only 3 days prior to each guest’s pending arrival and this is to be done automatically via the platform. Please be assured we will follow up with Vrbo directly, to gain further insight to this. We do hope that you enjoyed your stay in the Golden Bay region and our place was comfortable and had everything you needed. Thank you again,best regards Ariana
