Love bringing the kids and staying here. It's the perfect set up, even in winter we had a great time!

We were in Whangarei heads area for a sailing regatta and staying in this bach made our week really special. They have kept all the quirky charm of a well renovated Kiwi bach yet tastefully added to it so that our group of 10 fitted easily and had plenty of space to spread out and relax. The kitchen is small but very well equipped with everything we needed and the fridge was large plus an extra fridge if needed. We loved the very large dining table so that we could all eat together. Best of all is the wonderful view across the estuary and the kayaks. Pataua south is a relaxed quiet seaside village and we enjoyed the walks to both outer beaches and jumping off the foot bridge! I would love to return with my family for a holiday

Nice little property. However a couple of concerns. Advise renters of dogs next door. Cockroaches in Family cabin ( was’nt pleasant). Lamp bulbs in family cottage not working Second room in main cottage had a funny smell. Noises in the walls at night. I’d say mice are in the walls. I love the location and the family enjoyed being together
