The location is very good. Nice quiet street, but an easy walk to the beach and the village centre. Communication with the property manager is excellent. The house was very comfortable and well-equipped, ideal for a family beach stay. Pet-friendly was a bonus.

What a charming place to stay. A cosy homely vibe, warm and inviting. A short stroll to the beach and to the town centre. Hahei is a delightful place to stay. Communication with Tina was exceptional. Wonderful suggestions of leisurely strolls, places for the morning caffeine supply, and marvellous meals. If 6 stars was a thing I'd have pushed that button in a heartbeat. Truly exceptional service.

Charming Bach! We loved it here

Very sweet Bach just blocks from a beautiful beach. We loved our time here and wish we had stayed longer (and skipped Whangamata). The host was great and the property was set up with everything you need, including a spade to borrow for hot water beach. We liked the ability to cook and appreciated the baking dishes and supplies. The out door shower works great and we were happy to borrow the kayak and rol it to the beach. Lemons growing from the lemon tree were falling off the tree and made an excellent cake. Kids were quite happy with the board games. Very special and well loved property. The only small downside was that there were night parties at two neighboring houses which made for some late noise on two of the nights.

A house full of character and charm

This charming place reminded us of our own holiday cottage on the Norfolk coast. The wood panelling made the place feel warm and cozy despite the cold nights. Really well equipped - some extra heaters for the bedrooms would have made things even cosier. Great main living room space and THAT chair - so nice to sit in. Nice and close to the beach.

Well appointed family house

We had a wonderful stay at the bach, the house was well appointed with everything you need for a family, especially for those with young toddlers (even toys and kids books!) Short walk to beach, house on a lovely quiet street, very close to the shops. Communication with host and owner was easy. Will definitely stay here again when we visit Hahei. Thank you for making us feel welcome!
