Great house, located and host!
A fabulous property that provided more that we expected. Very clean & tidy. Large deck for summer dining outside. Very well catered inside. Close to shops.
A really great Lockwood bach right in the centre of Pauanui. Good facilities the kitchen is very well stocked with everything to allow catering and there’s plenty of space with loads of decking and an extendable dining table. A short walk to the shops and the beach. Off road parking.
Great weekend away with the family at the last minute. The hosts were amazing with fast communication and checking in with us to ensure we were all set.
Arriving late Friday and the house presented beautifully and very clean, with comfortable beds for us and the kids, all amenities mentioned in the advert working as expected and a fantastic location to the central shopping centre.
We would highly recommend this home and hosts and look forward to staying again soon.

Very tidy and close to shops
We had a wonderful stay at Bonnie-Doone. It was very clean and tidy and had everything we needed. Was great to have a bath for our pre-schoolers as most holiday homes tend not to have them. Had any questions answered very swiftly - great communication from the owner. Thanks again!

Great your family enjoyed our Bach for a holiday before Christmas. Hope you return to Pauanui sometime soon. Thanks
Fantastic house to holiday in has everything . Definitely returning as others also who visited
Having had a beach house and also sometimes renting through Booksbatch this holiday home ticked all the boxes. A sheer holidayers delight. Cleanliness, space, proximity to beach, shops, golf etc, kitchen providing all you want on holiday with plenty of crockery etc. fabulous big deck for lots of outdoor living. Family and friends all had very favourable comments and this holiday house is now in their list also. Kylie was a pleasure to deal with. Thank you again for a short but great stay.
