Great short stay in Waikanae Beach

This was a great location to base myself for a couple of days cycling around the Kāpiti coast.There is a fantastic bakery a short walk down the road offering tasty coffee and excellent pastries (savory and sweet).The beach is only a block away and provides a nice open walk with views out to Kāpiti island.The house was easy to access, clean, and comfortable.

3 adults, 1 infant

We found the property to be exactly what we needed. Enough room in the lounge for our 1yo to move around comfortably, a private room upstairs with bunk beds, and a warm main bedroom off the lounge. Stairs to upstairs is a tight fit but not an issue. The option of extra bedding with a sofa bed in the lounge, is good to know when we book in the future.We loved our stay, close to the beach and a very nice quiet area.

Waikanae beach

it was very nice to stay at. Our friends were a bit cold, so we got another heater, but that might have been because they came from a hot country!
