Our family had a wonderful stay in this comfortable, clean and inviting property. In addition to the ocean view and walk opportunities, we enjoyed the nearby restaurants and spectacular Mt. Taranaki! Check in and out was easy was timely and clear instructions from our hosts.

Great location to walk the coastal trail, or 20 walk to CBD, nice water view and morning sun in master bedroom. Washer but no dryer, but a line outside for drying, no worries.

We had a very disappointing experience with this stay. Our check-in time was 3:00 PM, but we did not receive any check-in instructions from the host. We arrived at around 3:15 PM and tried contacting the Bach team, who informed us that they were unable to reach the host.We spent nearly two hours on calls trying to resolve the issue. Eventually, we were told that we would need to arrange alternative accommodation ourselves, leaving us with no support. With two young kids in an unfamiliar place, this was an incredibly stressful experience. We called multiple hotels looking for accommodation but had no luck. Finally, after all that, we received a call from the property manager with the check-in details.Once we were able to access the property, we found it to be clean, tidy, and comfortable. The accommodation itself was good.However, the lack of communication and poor customer service completely overshadowed the stay. The check-in process and responsiveness to guests need significant improvement to avoid putting others through a similar experience.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, Madhan. We’re genuinely sorry for the stress and frustration you experienced on arrival, particularly after a long journey and while travelling with two young children. We completely understand how upsetting it would have been to arrive and not have the check-in information you needed and we appreciate that this left you in a very difficult position, and we’re sorry that you were put through the inconvenience of having to make alternative arrangements while we worked to resolve the situation. We were relieved that contact was eventually made and that you were able to access the property. We’re also pleased to hear that, once you were there, you found Blue Haven to be clean, tidy and comfortable. We take feedback around communication very seriously and have followed this situation up with the Reservations team to help ensure that check-in arrangements and communication are handled more reliably for future guests we’re sorry that this experience fell short of what you should have received. Thank you again for your feedback, and we’re glad that you were ultimately able to enjoy the accommodation itself.

Work Escape

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our house was in a great location. Close to town but also close to the ocean and the boardwalk. It was large and had enough room for five adults to comfortably stay. We cooked dinned almost every night so it was great to have the use of the full sized kitchen with all the appliances we needed. We loved it and will be back.

Classic get together of old friends

Very impressed. Just a few things, The shower door downstairs does not close - needs a repair. Also some of the cutlery in the drawer was dirty and needed washing. Could do with a new electric jug as current jug poors poorly.

spacious friends/family getaway

We chose this place for its two bathrooms, we being four women who need time to get their makeup on! The seaview was a bonus and the proximity to the town centre plus board walk was very handy. Well stocked kitchen and comfortable bedrooms and lounge. Thank you.

Easter family reunion

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location was central, close to town, handy to the Coastal Walkway. Only enough lounge chairs for 5 people, but we managed. Cupboards and shelves had items which we weren't sure if we were allowed to use and not enough room for own grocery items. Small kitchen, dining for the amount of people. Kept getting emails about paying for extra cleaning. I checked my invoice and had paid $92 so I found this a worry and concerned I might find more taken out of my visa. No broom, half brush or shovel. Beds very comfy. Showers good but no extractor fans. Instructions on disposing rubbish were vague.
