About this house rental
Perfect place to get away from it all, the small township of Torrent Bay has around 40 permanent dwellings most of which are empty through the year. There is no road access to the bay, guests must come in by boat or foot.
The bay livens up in the summer when most of the properties are used which gives a friendly atmosphere.
Kid safe beaches and lagoon, lots of bush walks on your doorstep.
Enjoy the feeling of settling down to a refreshing drink while the day trippers are rushing off to board a water taxi.
There are 2 homes side be side so larger groups can be catered for.
Due to being off grid there is no power available in the units, with the exception of lighting and the fridge freezer.
Mobile reception is also patchy, but can usually be found on the front beach, with vodaphone network being slightly better that spark. There is a pay phone in the shed by the jetty with free local calls.
Starlink Internet in now provided in both houses.
Sunday Star Times had an good article, on Torrent Bay, on the stuff web site back in February which can still be searched. "Heavenly, despite the sandy togs"
Special conditions:
Smoking allowed outside only.
Families preferred
No pets sorry
Extras: Linen (Optional, NZ$40.00 per person);
NOTE: Under Kiwi bach tradition you are expected to: Clean the house and do the dishes before you leave;

Summary of reviewsGuests loved the comfortable beds, well-equipped kitchen, and enjoyable kayaking activities, along with the beautiful and private location near the beach.

It was great to be able to find a place to stay within Abel Tasman National Park. It is an older home but was as expected and matched the description. The accommodations were well appointed and comfortable. Despite being off grid, we had everything we needed but be ware there are no electrical outlets except for USB charging ports. The house was just steps from the beach. Although we couldn’t see the beach from the house, we could hear the waves crashing on the beach at night and could see millions of stars in the dark sky. Stuart was very responsive and provided lots of helpful information.

Everything you need in a traditional kiwi bach - including the jigsaw puzzle. Private location away from the walkers. Easy access to the beach. Canoes, deck chairs and bbq. Loved our stay here.

We loved the house! Cosy space with everything we needed. Enjoyed the outdoor seating area and fireplace especially, we were lucky and had the place all to ourselves. Kayaks were a great bonus to have access to, we had a lot of fun. It was initially a little tricky to find where we were staying, but once we were there, our hosts took great care of us. The local Weka were great company and mostly very well behaved! I would recommend this bach to anyone looking to stay in Torrent bay. Thanks again!

We loved the two houses and had plenty of space to socialise. Great location for walks and the beach was lovely. It was very rainy so not as bright as it would normally be but we still had fun.
