Hihi Stay

Thankyou for opening up your family batch. Was a relaxed environment with comfortable beds. Quiet decks to sit and enjoy the peace. Enjoyed the outlook from the front deck listening to the sound of the sea with the setting sun. Thankyou

Lovely relaxed beach house with the most incredible view

A totally amazing location for a traditional kiwi holiday! Plenty of room for our group of nine, a great deck with superb view and a nice quiet beach which is perfect for young children. We were even visited by three Orca Whales on the day we arrived. Cooking was a little bit tricky as two of the elements didn’t seem to be working at full heat and the BBQ is probably getting a bit tired. Great responses from our host and information provided before our arrival.

Amazing views and location

We loved the waterfront location of the bach and that it had everything you needed during your stay. It was very affordable and the communication with the host was great, check in and out super easy. There was a section of an indoor balcony without any railing so if you have small kids who are sleeping with you in the master room upstairs, that needs to be made safer, so we put a stack of chairs in that area. I can see why the railing on the outside deck is low for an un-interupted view, but for families we had to keep our kids off the deck so the little ones wouldn't follow them out there as there is a 3m drop onto the gravel drive, I did see that it says that it's unsafe for small children but if your kids all run around and play together it's best to play down at the beach which is what we did. I would recommend for families with kids 6 and over and for people who don't have dust allergies as I had a big flare up during our stay.

Wonderful position

Beautiful location but for the condition and the high price we were extremely disappointed . the interior was Bach like. It had exterior chairs and an outside carpet in the lounge.Owners personal belongs were around and in piles. It needs a good clear out and clean and dust. Cobwebs were hanging from ceiling. Sheets and duvets were old . I was embarrassed as I had booked the holiday especially for my neice and her husband who were visiting from Australia. The website did not mention that downstairs double bedroom was the access to the double bunk bedroom ! So that was awful for the teenagers and us to have them walk through our room to get to their room. The deck is a horrific accident waiting to happen!! The decking needs replacing and the hand rail is too low and is able to be sat on with a 3 meter drop onto gravel the driveway below! It is definitely not compliant ! It does let you know that it is not suitable for small children on the website but it is dangerous for all ! Really feel ripped off! I had saved and booked months ahead.

Thanks for the feedback Gerry. We are sorry you did not enjoy your experience and the property did not meet your expectations. As mentioned in several communications the property is our family bach and contains our posssesions. The decorations and fittings are to provide a relaxed beach experience (including a large cleanable mat under a low table, for kids to eat and play at and not damage the new carpet!). The price is in the moderate range of suggested prices, for the size of the property (double section), the number of people it can cater for, boat parking and access, location etc. Again, we are disappointed and sorry that you did not have the wonderful bach experience that our family, friends and guests have experienced for over 20 years.

Christmas On the beach

We had a lovely Christmas on the beach with our family. The batch is very homely and has plenty of space for big families as well as being comforting for small families. The views are spectacular and it was lovely being able to watch the sunsets from the deck. Access to the beach is perfect just being across the road. The owners were so easy to get in contact with and were very flexible and understanding. We definitely enjoyed our stay and definitely recommend if you are looking for relaxation, a good family holiday or just a couples getaway.

Perfect location

This batch had everything we needed. Great location with the beach across the road. There was plenty of space to park. The house itself had lots of space inside and everything we needed for a weeks break away. Loved it so much we have already booked for next year.

Beautiful Spot - house tired

Beautiful views. House is tired. Property decks not suitable for small children, nothing to stop them falling off. Probably not legal. House is all original I think, so dated and definitely needs some work and major spring clean. Kitchen drawers cupboards etc challenging. A lot of the owners possessions in pantry, fridge, freezer. Clutter all about, on every surface and in bowls on tables etc... , cobwebs behind couch and all over the high ceiling, curtains not picked up and vacuumed under hair in sink plugs in bathrooms, back steps ready to fall apart. Told to conserve water, yet taps leak. Kitchen tupperware/plastics drawers full of items that do not match. Needs chuck out. Plenty of linen, towels, pots, pans, crockery, glasses, cutlery. No potato peeler. A great range of out outside games and plenty of seating on deck. Good parking. Fabulous communication from the owner.

Great spot at Hihi Beach

Was pleasantly surprised when we turned up to the bach at the location and size of property. Plenty of parking, room inside house very usable and convenient, wrap around decks great facing Northerly and Westerly. Fish filleting bay and smoker very handy. Property Manager (owner) accommodating. A great getaway spot!
