The bach may be a bit dated and the layout of the rooms, specifically the path between one bedroom and the second living area/bedroom. However it was generally clean, it felt homey and pretty much has everything you will need for your stay. There was some confusion regarding the amenities in the place which was originally a concern with the not so good weather in Waiheke that time. The place being spacious though made up for it and everyone in our group was comfortable, and the kids enjoyed playing in the 2 roomy living spaces. The second living space/bedroom can be hot though since there’s only one airconditioner/heatpump but luckily the not so good weather made the rooms quite cool. Michelle provided clear instructions and was quick to respond to any concerns we had. Thanks again for hosting us, Michelle!

Fabulous spot for a family

We had a lovely four days at this property. Plenty of space for the kids to roam, very clean, comfortable beds and a short drive from beautiful Palm beach. Also loved having Ostend right there for coffee and amenities. Highly recommend.

Great island holiday accommodation

Michelle was great in opening up her lovely Bach to us. The place was tidy, and close to Palm Beach, the perfect spot for a lovely island holiday. I’d recommend Michelle as a host, she was great in communicating and check in details were spot on. Thanks very much to Michelle for a brilliant summer vacation.

Convenient on Waiheke

Bach is fairly basic but had what we needed for a short weekend away. Was well situated for public transport with a bus stop 1min walk away or a short walk to Ostend for supplies.

Great for large families

Quite a large house, plenty of beds (that were comfy enough) to suit a group of girls, linen charge extra, location fab if you don't mind catching the regular buses everywhere but within walking distance to supermarket. A little bit tired but overall suited our needs and had everything we needed.

A get together to celebrate family. The house was spacious and clean, with heaps of room for the 6 of us that stayed. Being able to have my two little dogs with us during such a special time, made the occasion complete. Thank you Michele!

perfect for a family gathering

This is a large house which was perfect for 9 of us, having the extra ensuite was good. The property sits in the middle of the island with easy access to the beach 3min drive to palm beach or a 15min walk down hill. the kitchen was well stocked but we could have done with more than 1 pot. The tv was triky/impossible to get goin... possibly take an hdmi cable and a laptop.. not many games so pack your cards and monopoly...
