Stunning sea views and only a few minutes walk to Snells Beach, walkways and playground from this cabin. It is located in a cul de sac. Approx 10 minutes drive to Matakana, Omaha, Martins Bay and the many vineyards in this area. There is no hot water tap at the sink or at the basin - however the shower is an instant hot water system. Includes all cutlery, crockery, radio, TV, microwave, electric frying pan, electric jug, toaster, fridge/freezer, outdoor table, 4 chairs and umbrella.
This accommodation is quite basic but it is clean and tidy and really suits those couples or families on a budget or who just enjoy the simple life! It is similar to staying in a cabin I guess, but you have your own facilities and it's cheaper. Any questions are welcome.
Minimum stay is 2 nights.
NOTE: Under Kiwi bach tradition you are expected to: Clean the house and do the dishes before you leave; Bring your own linen (towels/sheets/tea towels)

Comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen, friendly host, easy check in, everything we needed, and a lovely view, in a very quiet and peaceful neighborhood. We had a great stay, thank you :)
A great Kiwi bach experience. The cabin was well-equipped, quite spacious and welcoming. It had everything we needed. A bonus was the beautiful view and large outdoor space.
Great little place to get away with my teenage son and had a ball with smoke on the coast bbq event just down the road, would do it again. Great location and price.
Excellent stay at this cute and comfortable cabin in a perfect location, 5 min away from Snells Beach waterfront.Cabin is very clean, functional with retro style furniture, has comfortable beds, and amazing sea views.
Not the flashiest but you get what you paid for. Suitable for our needs, though a bit hot even with all the windows and doors open and no fans available

Before booking, PLEASE read what you are booking! This is a cabin, not a Bach and exactly as described and photographed. No fan/s are included in the listed ammenities.
It was a nice cabin to stay in and we could do everything we want. A perfect place to do excursions and to go to several places. We have no complaints only about the weather because we had bad luck that it was raining most of the time.
Basic but clean accommodation. Great location with views of the sea. Peaceful area and quiet night's sleep. Only downside was lack of WiFi but cafes in Snells Beach centre had it so no worries.
Great place! We really enjoyed our stay. The only thing we contemplated was how nice it would be to have one of those small BBQs or a bigger, second-hand one available, as the location just screams for it. Maybe some local policies prevent it—who knows?
What a great place to stay. All the basics you need to take time out to relax or use as a base for adventures in the area.
Enjoyed the sea views, listening to birdsong in the lovely quiet neighbourhood and eating at the local food establishments.
