The beach house has a north-facing deck and upstairs enjoys the beautiful outlook of the surrounding bush and a glimpse of the sea. The beach house is modern and light with an open plan living area, comfortably furnished including comfortable beds. All the mod-cons, including heat pump, dishwasher, fridge/freezer, DVD, a smart TV upstairs, a T.V. with Freeview and Chromecast downstairs in the lounge, and unlimited WIFI with Fibre. There are electric blankets on the two Queen beds. The main bedroom upstairs has an en suite and a smart T.V. The 2nd bathroom downstairs has a shub (small bath) shower and separate toilet.

Whangamata is home to one of New Zealand’s most beautiful coastal attractions. Fabulous golden and white sand beaches with magnificent coastal scenery, a rugged forest-cloaked interior waiting to be explored and one of New Zealand's best surfing breaks are just some of the natural attractions that have people returning to Whangamata time after time.

fantastic
We found the property to be lovely and quiet at this time of year. The house is cute and cosy and suited us perfectly when we were hanging out after a busy day out and about. The trees around the property add to the beauty and really encourage the local bird life to visit which was awesome to see. The beach was a conveniently short walk away and the shops didn't take long at all to drive to. Averil was nothing but a pleasure to talk to and communicate with and really made the effort to make sure our stay was a good experience which was all very appreciated. Absolutely would book another stay in the future :)

Fabulous stay in well located bach
We loved our 10 day stay at this property - great location only a short walk to the beach and estuary. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed. Averil was a great host - helpful and quick to respond. Would definitely recommend for family holiday or two couples.

Golf Getaway
Lovely wee house, very comfortable with easy access to everything. Only comments being, I have used used bookabach often, never had the expectation to empty dishwasher before leaving, usually fill and leave runing on leaving. Also feel you should get one rubbish bag included in your fee, not take it with you, should be part of cleaning fee. Would use again, great host contact 👍

Estuary Adventures
My family stayed at this great bach over the long weekend and had a wonderful time. They said it was perfect for their family with everything they needed. They explored the estuary, and the dairy was just down the road, ideal for kids and their scooters. The park was also really handy, so the location was perfect. They highly recommended Averil's fabulous bach. She was also wonderful to deal with, very accommodating and great communication.
