The open-plan kitchen and lounge flow out to a sunny outdoor area, great for morning coffee or evening unwinding. Enjoy barista-style coffee with the Breville machine and grinder provided.
After a day at the beach, rinse off in the outdoor hot shower or head inside to the main bathroom, which includes a shower, toilet, and laundry facilities. A heat pump keeps things comfortable year-round.

Amazing time
We really enjoyed our mini getaway at this comfortable bach. Very family friendly with everything we needed to enjoy our stay including loads of board games and puzzles, wifi, smart tv, aircon, modern well equipped kitchen, new bbq, great coffee maker machine too. Just a short stroll to Sunset beach, a hiking trail with fantastic views and sand dunes. All of which we packed in for the long weekend. The lovely hosts were very accomodating with us postponing our trip due to the recent storms. Glad we made it down here. It’s a hidden gem from the usual tourist hotspots so not overly crowded which was lovely. Would gladly come back thanks Mike/Sarah.

Short wander for magnificent waves!
Ngā mihi nui Sarah and Mike for sharing your lovely haven, which provided perfectly for our busy group of six. We lived two full days in the ocean - happiest adults and kids (fantastic surf life saving team). On our drizzly day we explored the op shops of nearby Pukekohe and the kids happily ran table tennis tournaments. Really appreciated your swift communication with us and generous response / accomodation to our individualised request. All ages are so keen to return. Until next time, many thanks!
