Summary: A very cute bach/crib located in a very peaceful location at Papatowai. It had everything we needed and the view from the upstairs room was fabulous. Only downside was the upstairs bed was a bit tired - excusing the pun.

Summary: Very clean, perfect for a weekend getaway. Water pressure a bit weak, but as you would expect being in the middle of nowhere. I do feel it’s a little bit expensive but then also worth it.

Summary: Great wee bach - with all the basics, but don’t expect anything too flash. Clean and tidy. Wonderful location to base yourself at while making day trips up and down the coast.

Summary: The property suited our needs but needs some maintenance . Well situated but the views are really only from the upstairs bedroom . The garden needs attention , it would be much improved if the container was removed & some outdoor furniture provided.

Summary: Lovely, warm little bach, and would be enough living / bathroom space with 4 people too. The kitchen was well-equipped and it's only a short walk down to a beautiful beach. Would definitely recommend! The bach catches a lot of sun too, so it's bright and cheerful during the day. Only slightly negative comment: Watch your head on the shelves above the bed upstairs!

Summary: Very comfortable and well equipped accommodation. It could be improved with better curtains in the upstairs bedroom and by fixing the holes in the window screens.
