THE AREA
Waitarere Beach is a wide, flat, uncrowded west coast beach with surf lifesaving patrol in summer. Wellington is about 90 minutes south; Palmerston North under an hour east. The village has a Four Square, takeaways, café, and restaurant. Levin (full services) is 10 minutes by car.
Beach activities: swimming, surfing, fishing (Kahawai, Snapper, Groper, Gurnard, Flounder), boat launching off the beach, land yachts, whitebait fishing at the Manawatu and Ohau river mouths (seasonal). The Waitarere Forest has mountain biking and walking tracks, many linking through to the beach.
Dogs welcome: not upstairs, not on furniture, not left alone on the property during the day.
Bach tradition: guests are asked to clean the house and do the dishes before checkout. Bedding provided — please bring your own towels."

Had a wonderful break with the family and our Golden Retriever. The house had everything we needed and was in a great location. Heaps of space to relax in and within easy walking distance of the 4 Square and beach. Can't wait to get back!!!

This is the second time we've stayed. It's a fantastic little bach, really nice equipped and great location with lots of things to do for a laid-back family holiday. Fabulous to be able to bring the dog. Very easy booking and communication. Thanks very much, we'd love to come and stay again!

Nice little place, really comfy, and close to all the fun things. Couldn’t get the internet to work, but otherwise was great!
