WhangaBach – Family & Pet-Friendly Whangamata Bach
WhangaBach – Family & Pet-Friendly Classic Kiwi Bach with a Modern Twist (Linen Included)
Just 500m from Whangamata Beach and 200m from the main street, WhangaBach is the perfect base for a relaxed Kiwi getaway. Walk to the surf, grab a coffee, or enjoy dinner out — everything is right on your doorstep.
When the surf’s up, head to the beach; when it’s calm, the Whangamata Harbour (600m away) is ideal for swimming, kayaking, paddleboarding, or a daring jump off the wharf.
Fully Fenced, Family & Pet-Friendly Section
The large, fully fenced section makes WhangaBach an ideal choice for families with children or pets. Parents can relax knowing kids and furry friends can play safely within secure boundaries. There’s plenty of flat lawn space for bikes, backyard cricket, or water fights, and even a trampoline for endless fun.
You’ll also have ample off-street parking for cars, boats, and beach gear — all safely tucked away behind the gate.
Outdoor Living & Entertaining
After a day at the beach, fire up the BBQ on the sunny rear deck, or enjoy dinner under the stars. The modern kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need, including a Nespresso machine and dishwasher.
If you’d rather eat out, walk just a few minutes to cafes, bars, and restaurants — or grab some fish & chips to enjoy back at the bach.
The Main House
2 bedrooms: 1x Queen bed, 1x room with 2x bunk beds
Modern bathroom with separate shower & toilet
Full kitchen with Nespresso coffee machine & dishwasher
Smart TV, Bluetooth stereo, and smart lighting
Front deck for watching the action, and rear deck for shaded BBQs with large outdoor table & seating
The Cabin
1x Queen bed & 1x bunk bed set
Fully insulated, bright, and private
Own bathroom, fridge, tea/coffee facilities, and Smart TV
Ideal for extended family, teenagers, or guests wanting their own space
Guest Info
Linen included in all bookings
Maximum 6 adults (twin share) or 5 in separate beds
Top bunks suitable for children only
Total of up to 10 guests, including kids
Pets welcome by prior approval — please message before confirming

Convenient Location
We were a family of five plus two extra teenagers. We enjoyed our stay at WhangaBach. It is in a great location - a couple of minutes walk to town and only a few more to the beach. It's a very spacious section, so lots of room for cars, bikes and games. It has a lot of beds, although the bunk room in the house is very small. We found it comfortable for seven people and the sleepout is fairly spacious and convenient with it's own bathroom and small kitchenette.

Perfect Location for Teenagers (and Parents too)
Only a couple minutes walk down to the wharf were young & old do Manus in front of the relaxing beach goers. Just turn 'right' at the round-about and you are in town for a stroll through the shops or sit at the many cafes. New World is also only minutes away...
