About this property

'LA CASITA' in the beautiful Bay of Islands

Great family bach right in the heart of the Bay of Islands. Has all the facilities you need, close to the beach and Russell township, 50-60 minutes drive to Kerikeri via Okiato Ferry or alternatively you can get the passenger ferry to Paihia.
There is fishing and boating right on your doorstep with charters all year round, or you have the option of bringing your own boat. There is a boat ramp down in Russell township, along with great cafes and restaurants. Trips out to the islands are daily and can be booked in town.
This is our family bach and has been for many years, so please enjoy it and look after it.

NOTE: Under Kiwi bach tradition please leave the house as you found it and please do not leave dishwasher on and pump off when you depart as dishwasher requires pump to be on.
Washing of linens is done by owner - please just strip beds of sheets and pillow cases only that have been used and leave in bathroom with used towels and flannels.
Wifi is NOT provided.
Please do not leave refuse/recycling - this is to be disposed of before departure by guests.
