Classic beach bach

This is a classic old fashioned bach in a great location, close to the swimming end of Waihi Beach. If you are after bright, shiny and new this is not for you but if you like character, charm and a bit of history, this place is a cutie. There are lots of bedding options, it is clean and has an awesome fire place - all at a good value price.

Cute Coal Miners Cottage.

This cute Coal Miners Cottage was so inviting. Location was just perfect with the beach and Cafe within walking distance. There was the Main house and the separate Bunk house and both had bathrooms. Sleeps 8. Great experience.

Great bach

Lovely little bach - unassuming but cute. Great woodburner and sunny deck out the back. Loved the character of the place and the location too, though it's one of those old wooden buildings where on a sunny winter's day, it is warmer outside than in (unless you have the fire going)... Thanks for a great winter break.

Fantastic

Bach is in a Superb spot with a short walk to the beach and absolutely love the outside rooms which kids would enjoy and everything you need inside, a beautiful hot shower, lovely deck and some amazing old photos of Waihi beach and the old bits and pieces in the bach are really cool. We love the area as our grandad owned the bach across the Road and it bought back some really special memories. Come and try the place you will not be disappointed. Don't think about it just book it.

Fantastic classic kiwi bach!

Fantastic classic kiwi bach! So close to the beach and dairy for last minute bits and pieces you need. The sun streams on to the deck with ample seating to enjoy the outdoors. We were there multi days and during a rainy weekend so the indoor fire was a saviour at night. We had enough time to play with the board games and finish off a puzzle before leaving. Will definitely hire again.
