On the beach

The building reminded me of our old beach bach at Mt Maunganui many years ago, and it was ideal for my much needed break. Clean, comfortable and literally right on the beach - just what I needed! Also very well equipped for a family lunch whilst there.

Cute little bach front row to a lovely beach

We really enjoyed our 5 nights here. The bach is as described, basic but comfortable, with good cooking facilities and a homely vibe and wonderful location. Thanks for sharing!! šŸŒž

We loved the Pipi Palace

The Pipi Palace was exactly what we wanted.....A back to basics holiday ( if fridge/freezer, air fryer and wifi is basic these days!). It's an amazing location and we relived my cherished childhood memories of summer hols at Papamoa. Don't change a thing and enjoy a simple holiday whilst you can........

Unique old school bach right on the beach. Fantastic location but needs a couple of items sorted to reach a maximum rating. Will communicate these to the property manager

Pipi palace is a little piece of paradise for anyone who doesn't want all the flashy modcons but wants to be comfortable and warm in an amazing setting. Communication was best done by texting but Annie got back in a timely manner. We'll definitely be back

Lovely winter break

We enjoyed two nights here, the weather played its part and it was simply stunning! Very relaxing, close to shops and pub. Couldnā€™t get any closer to the beach - superb location! The Bach is as listed and not 5 star but the view makes up for that! Very comfortable and warm. Unfortunately no milk or sugar was supplied so we couldnā€™t have a cuppa tea on our first night - we arrived very late. But we sorted that in the morning. No flannels, no other little extras like little body wash ect so make sure you bring everything with you. Other than that - superb!

Response from VrboOwner on 25 July 2022
Thank you kindly for your feed back & appreciate to read you both found Pipi Palaceā€™s cozy ambiance & location superb. Pipi palaceā€™s presentation of Queen bed tastefully made for oneā€™s arrival / bathroom towels, to a fully equipped kitchen also included incidentals for one's stay of Cuppacino or Flat white sachets/ tea & bathroom soap. Pipi Palace is an iconic vintage kiwi bach and as per description suggests to anyone ā€œif wishing for palatial thrills then this is not the place ". However, next time, youā€™ll be pleased to find, added little extraā€™s of milk /sugar to "shower body- wash" in place. Thank you for selecting the "BACH ON BEACH"- "PIPI PALACE".
