Fantastic location

Fantastic location, just over the road from beautiful Ligar Bay. So much fun at the beach and in the lagoon and close to Totaranui for day trips and Takaka for supplies. Great outdoor area to enjoy the sun and had everything we needed.

Perfect location to watch the view and enjoy the sun

We had a lovely stay. The house was big enough for 5 adults to each have their own space in the living area. The kitchen was well equipped and the oven worked well. The house could have better photos on line as I think the house was better than the photos.

Great place

Loved our stay at Ligar Bay. Not much we could fault, only thing we could’ve done with was a fire guard and oven mitts! Otherwise a very well appointed place in a fantastic location. Thanks

Nice house

Was a nice house, even though it states linen is not included it was a bit of a hassle having to take our own linen. The place could have been cleaned a bit better as we found mouse poo in one of the beds which was a bit gross. Overall the house and the location was nice.

Family holiday

Great location, lovely house. Found that there were a few things that we expected to be provided e.g. tea, coffee and oven glove that were not. Listing said BYO linen but didnt expext that to be more than bed linen.

Great spot

Very happy with our stay, house was tidy and great size for 4 adults 1x 3 year old and 1x 4 month old. Super safe for kids and right by the beach. Only feedback would be the shower pressure was lacking and our king sheets didn't fit the king beds but other than that great stay. Thanks!

I live 2 blocks from a beach but staying directly across the road was way way better. I also loved the way the front doors and windows opened right up.

Great

Had a awesome time at ligar bay bachs. Very rainy when we went but made the most of it. The deck is a little sketchy for toddlers, has quite a large drop. The fire could do with a guard. Other than that a great place.

Great location for families

Had a brilliant holiday here with young kids and extended family. So close to the beach, which was great for rock pools at low tide and swimming at high tide. Spent a lot of time on the beautiful deck and bbqing in the front garden. Would love to stay again.

Weather let us down, but not the property which was lovely. Only thing was lack of luggage racks but that's really nitpicking. It was great!
