Anna’s home

The photos don’t do the property justice, Anna was so welcoming and made us feel at home. Only 5 minutes drive to town and so close to the beach, we’ll definitely be coming back.

Perfect for our weekend getaway

Awesome little place for the Wife and I to stay for the weekend, plenty of parking for a big boat aswell as we could fit the 7m boat and ute in without taking it off, granted no other cars were in the way. Thanks for the great accommodation and awesome communication.

Lovely place to stay

Absolutely loved staying here! The cabins are cosy and warm with a lovely view. Everything you need is provided and Anna is a super welcoming and friendly host. The beach is a short drive (or walk if you're willing to climb the steep hill back) away and Anna has lots of recommendations for things to do in the area. Thank you for a lovely weekend, we loved it :)

Five stars really aren't enough!

We had the absolute pleasure of staying in these cottages recently. This was our first trip away on our own for nearly 4 years (sad I know..) and we truly couldn't have picked a more perfect home to stay in. With the most gorgeous views from the balcony of the 'living' cottage, everything about this stay was fabulous. Anna, our host, was just lovely with her easy-going attitude and great local knowledge...I can guarantee if you book here, your stay will be amazing! We'll be back for sure!

About the host

Hosted by anna60

Host profile image
I am passionate about recycling and preloved décor which I have incorporated into my cottages.
Interior design and landscaping are part of my passion and the industry I work in as a self-employed designer of interior and exterior properties.

I also have created my own home from a 45 square meter garage into a Chabby chic 1 bedroom home for myself and Mr Booj my border terrier which is located behind the barn sliding doors on the property.

I have a keen interest in tiny home living and hope you enjoy your tiny home experience in the Black Blonde Bach.
If you would like to know more about my journey I am on a Youtube channel Called "Living Big in a Tiny Home"

Why they chose this property

An opportunity to create my Tiny homes and the magic views of Mercury Bay and Islands with a quiet neighborhood are what bought me to 6 Rimu street with a backdrop of bush and lush gardens and birds.

What makes this property unique

The Black Blonde Bach was a dream that I always wanted to create on my property and share, they are a fabulous way to experience Tiny home living with the benefits of an amazing sea, coastal view. Private and set amongst gorgeous gardens they have beautiful character of there own with all the little extras to make your stay comfortable and romantic.
