This bach is a home away from home. It has everything you could possibly need. Very comfortable beds, and a short walk to the beach. The two decks provide options to sit outside. We had a very relaxing break. Thank you Donna and Terry.

Waihi escape

We have been to Waihi Beach a number of times over the years when the children were young and wish we had found this earlier. Great family bach a short stroll to the beach and with all the home comforts needed to relax and entertain. Great elevated private deck, outdoor seating, outdoor shower, games and more. Will definitely look to stay again.

We enjoyed a lovely break here. The Bach was beautifully decorated, comfortable and well-equipped and so close to the beach. We went in winter and the wood stove kept us warm. Would definitely book again.

Great place, lovely vibe and super friendly manager. Recommend it as a place to stay at Waihi Beach. Not beach front but super close and you're not paying beach front prices

Fab place

Really enjoyed staying here. The location is amazing, so close to the beach. Waihi Beach has such a chilled, fun vibe. Enjoyed the fireplace, outdoor bath and outdoor shower. Beds were comfy and the place has a relaxed feeling so we felt at home. Being able to bring our furry friend was a real bonus, thank you

Wahi Bach

We had such a wonderful stay at your home. It is better than advertised. We so enjoyed all the charm and character of your Bach. It is obvious your family cares for and enjoys the home as much as we did. Your love is felt throughout, from the comfy furniture and awesome collection of beach vibe knickknacks and pictures to the supplied bikes and Paddleboards. We loved every minute of our stay! Thank youJim and Elaine

What a awesome bach by waihi beach

We absolutely loved our weekend away in this gorgeous bach. Such a beautiful location & the bach had everything you could want. Our dogs came along for the trip, it is so hard to find a place to take them with us so it ticked all the boxes. Donna was the best host we could have asked for! So accomodating & we had not one issue with anything. Check in was super easy & we had access to the boogie boards & bikes which were great fun. The outdoor bath is so relaxing aswell. Can't recommend it enough! Thank you again Donna

This was a great retro vibe old school kiwi bach with all the home comforts. The weather was terrible while we were there so really appreciated the board games available and books to read plus Netflix on tv. Great location near the beach would love to visit again when the weather is better.

We loved our stay. The Bach had everything we needed and more. Very spacious, covered outdoor dining was perfect in bad weather. Young kids thought it was the best ever, well equipped with toys and games etc and my husband kept complimenting the retro, Bachy decor. Thank you.

About the host

Hosted by thekays

Host profile image
We purchased this bach after 30 years of family holidays at Waihi Beach where we dreamed of one day owning our own piece of this paradise.
We have fond memories of the many baches we rented over the years, and are thrilled to now share this home with other families.

Why they chose this property

We love holidaying at Waihi Beach. The beach is safe for swimming and surfing and you can easily walk the track to Orokawa or The Trig. There are many excellent cafes and restaurants nearby and unique shopping in the village. The Hauraki Rail Trail is great for biking or day hikes.

What makes this property unique

This 1950's bach is ideally suited to people who want a traditional NZ holiday just one block back from the beach.
We aim to keep this bach reasonably priced by not charging a mandatory cleaning fee, damage deposits, or extra per person charges. There are extra squabs for children to sleep in the lounge or on the extra single bed. We don't want loud parties at the bach (we like our neighbours!), but you are welcome to have friends/family gather for meals or happy hour.
Pets and children welcome.
