Very pleasant stay

The location and the house we know well, seen it many times, it was a great 3 days, A Lucky break before the school holiday crowd arrives, and just not long enough stay, The facilities are great, A sunny Sunday in the PM and a perfect calm morning on check out, the 11am check out is very good, that extra hour makes a difference to waking up and chasing around.

What an outstanding experience in every way. If anything the listing undersells the special aspects of this house and location. The beach isn’t private, but it might as well be. Great views from all parts of the house, very high end finish out and charmingly decorated. We especially appreciated not having to bring bed linens as so many other locations required. Bring food, beach towels and toiletries and every other need is covered on site, including two kayaks and two really nice full bathrooms with heated towel racks. Great for all seasons with charming outside spaces and cozy indoor rooms and a wood burning stove for colder nights. We’ll be back again on a future visit.

Unbeatable spot in a beautiful Bach. We've stayed at many places in Golden Bay and this is our favourite. Can't beat the location and the house is super comfortable and has everything you need! Really comfy beds and nice linen which you don't often get in a Bach! The whole family loved it and we'll be back! Thank you!
