This Bach was in a great location, and had great amenities. The living space is well laid out and had everything we needed for our three day stay. Would return.
A lovely reconnection with girlfriends, the weekend was perfect.
The Bach was warm in arrival, so welcoming.
Lovely cosy home in a great location close to the beach and walking distance from town.
Lovely and clean…I would recommended to friends.
Just wonderful. If you want to swim, walk along the beach, watch your kids at the playground & skatebowl while you read books, this is the place for you. If you want to rent a flash bach to have fancy bbqs this isn't the place. Probably the only kiwi bach left in Oakura available for rental, it's well appointed and homely. Wander down fo the surf shop for a coffee & a yarn, tell the bloke who runs it I said hi. Oh, and there is no TV. Don't worry, you won't miss it and neither will the kids.

Hi Claire! Thank you for such a thoughtful review! We’re so pleased you enjoyed the relaxed, classic beach-house feel and everything the location has to offer — from the beach and playground to the local surf shop and coffee spot. It’s wonderful to hear the home provided the perfect place to slow down, unwind, and enjoy quality time together without the distractions. We’d love to welcome you back for another stay in the future! - BBK team
Great views. Bach in fairly good condition. Some small maintenance jobs could be carried out. Would like the heat pump/ AC to be working in Winter/Summer too. Extra outdoor chair would be good. Some pots had to be washed before we could use them. Comfortable stay mostly although the single beds weren't great. Would stay again.

Hi Suzanne! Thank you so much for your amazing 5-star review! We are thrilled to know your stay with us
was a success. Please come and visit us again soon.
- Bach Break Team
Overall we felt the cleanliness was not up to standard, the bathroom particularly. Broken toilet seat was not good given it was broken last time we stayed which was a couple of years ago.
Lock on back door broke mid stay.
Beds are very uncomfortable. Oven needs instructions included in the home manual - it’s very confusing to operate.
Great location, and overall fine - just needs a little TLC to fix a few things up.

Great location in a lovely town with all that you need to have an easy holiday. Perfect setting for the kids with the park in view from the deck, and a stones throw away from the beach. Only 10 minutes away form New Plymouth if other activities are required. our family will definitely go back again.

Lovely warm, well-laid out beach bach. Family of 5 on holiday, lots of beach walks & meals around the table. Kids loved the basketball hoop in the park right outside the door. Great views, clean & tidy. Hope to be back again!
Plenty of space for everyone. Great outlook. Has nearly everything you need.

Great time with great mates. we all had a ball
We loved the layout of the property. It was perfect for our family stay. Lovely, light and spacious rooms and everything was very well equipped. The location just across the road from the beach and next to a playground and skateboard park was fantastic.
