This bach was perfect for our family with 2 teenagers. So comfortable, great layout, great location and we had everything that we needed. We had a fantastic time. Alison is a wonderful host, so kind and welcoming and she had thought of everything. Especially grateful that we were able to bring the head of our family, Hana (our 4 year old Staffy).Thank you Alison x

Very nicely organised house and sleep outs with a lot of attention given to cleanliness and comfort. Host is welcoming and relaxed. Location is great for exploring Oneroa and easy walking to great spots for a dip and play with little children. So nice that your family dog can have a holiday on Waiheke too. Would recommend.

Our family had a wonderful stay at Alison’s Waiheke bach. It suited our needs very well. Close to both town and beach and warm, comfortable and cosy. It had everything we needed. Our 2 puppies loved the back yard to run around in. Although we didn’t meet Alison, she welcomed us with a card and chocolate!I would highly recommend Alison as a host.

Relaxed bliss

Alison's bach is cute and comfortable. With two sleepouts, it's possible to get good separation for sleep and quiet times, and enjoy the spacious deck between for socialising. An easy walk to Oneroa for the café, and beach. swims
