Love the accomodation, quirky little authentic kiwi batch close to beach and all amenities , room for tents everything we needed there. A step at sliding door off the deck would be great instead of walking to end of deck to get up/ down helpful if your older in age

Waitarere long weekend

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, great set up with the bach and cabin. Both have everything you need, the kids enjoyed the large open space outside to run around. Nice and close to the 4 square, not far to walk to the beach. Would definitely like to stay again.

Great bach

We had a lovely 7 day stay, being fully fenced was great for our dog, she had lots of fun chasing balls. Our family with three young ones visited and there was plenty of room. A lovely classic Bach close to the beach and 4sqaue
