We have stayed in this lovely Bach many times now, this time for ten days, and it’s perfect for a couple. An easy gentle walk to the town, shops and wharf, very quiet and peaceful, comfortable and spacious. Highly recommended!

This is a fabulous place to stay. Kitchen facilities were top notch and the BBQ was a bonus. Laundry facilities in the garage were great and easy to access. Grant is a great personable host. The place is spotless. Walking to downtown is easy, can’t think of a better place to stay in Whitianga.

PROPERTY: A cute little cottage at the rear of property that is only 5 mins walk from the town centre. We had everything we needed including Netflix and laundry facilities. It was clean, tidy and cosy. LOCATION AND THINGS TO DO: With almost water views we were just a short stroll from cafes, restaurants, shopping and visitor info centre. Restuarants were all great with a special mention for Stoked Public House. The weather wasn’t the best during our stay and we are Aussies so water temp too cold for swimming in September. Had a great day trip to Hot Water Beach (amazing) and a good walk to Cathedral Cove afterwards. Thoroughly enjoyed both. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. So relaxing and just what we needed. Host Grant was great too.

Birthday occasion

We had a comfortable stay. Only thing that annoyed my husband is that he couldn’t sleep while I sat in the lounge watching tv. The sound travelled over the open wall. (I had it down low too) other than that it was a very comfortable and cosy stay.

Whitianga cottage

This is the second time we have stayed at the cottage which is spotlessly clean, comfortable bed, good bathroom and kitchen. It is well equipped with thoughtful touches. It is handy to the estuary and the town centre of Whitianga and in a quiet location. We would book again.
