About the host
Hosted by thebach398
Kia ora, Our names are Anna and Ross Davis and we are originally from Auckland and have lived many years in Wellington. We are part of a large Māori, Pākehā and Moana Pacific families.
Why they chose this property
We bought the bach as we love sailing and mucking around on the water in small boats. We hope the kids love climbing one of the regions most beautiful pohutukawa trees, paddle boarding at high tide and even at low tide we love the long walks across the harbour. Bring old shoes or sandals.
What makes this property unique
Fully renovated, right by the water with own jetty and Whangateau harbour right across the road. Harbour is shallow and safe ideal for small children. Property is not fenced to the creek which is deep at high tide
