A little bit a luxury
I've walked past this little bach many times over the years and admired it, but staying in it was so much better than expected. The comfort, the proximity to the beach, the views and the outdoor shower with a proper door you close and hot water, was Heavenly. The bar straight off the kitchen totally enhances this bach experience we loved it. My teenage daughter loved the bunk cubby. We'll be back for sure.

Beautiful Spot
Nice little house to stay and happy it was pet friendly.
Only bad point was it was listed to have a hot tub which was not any where to be seen
Sent text to the property manager and had no response

Perfect little spot
Our family in law stayed here, and they loved it. Private own little space away from the rest of the house. The bathroom, bed room and cute little kitchen meant they had their own little set up. They couldn’t stop talking about how much they enjoyed there stay here .

Steps from the beach
Super cute place. Felt big after two weeks traveling in a van around South Island.
The location is great. Just the second row of houses from the beach and a short walk to Pauanui's center of commerce (grocery story, bakery, 3 restaurants, second hand shop, post office...)

Fab tiny house!
We loved the house, and thought there was tonnes of room for a “tiny house”!
The location is absolutely brilliant, all the facilities in great working order.
The only challenge we found was the pots for cooking - we needed more than two!
The house was cozy and homely in some pretty atrocious weather so we were glad to be inside!
