Architecturally Renovated Bach

Recently renovated, our bach (actually more a beach house!) offers beautiful views, great sun and a location to really relax in, making this the perfect place for a summer getaway.

Sleeping 7 people this is a modern and clean place for families and friends to enjoy all the Kapiti Coast has to offer. Sky TV, outdoor area and swing for the kiddies make this perfect for relaxing! Fully equipped kitchen and additional kitchenette downstairs are convenient luxuries.

Our bach is a short (100 metres) walk away from the beach, Queen Elizabeth Park, a children's playground, cafe, restaurant and is the perfect place to get away from it all.

Finish the day with a relaxing spa bath outside under the stars... bliss...

*Please note wheelchair access is limited to level 1.
Special conditions:
Smoking allowed outside only

Cleaning can be arranged on application.

NOTE: Under Kiwi bach tradition you are expected to: Clean the house and do the dishes before you leave; Bring your own linen (towels/sheets/tea towels) AND remember it is a beach house, not a 5 star resort!

We had a great stay. Bach was just right for our needs - meeting up with friends in the area. Comfy beds and plenty of space to relax.I missed the details in the listing that required quests to bring sheets/towels which made it slightly awkward - but this didn’t diminish our stay. Good communication and clear instructions on how to access - which was a relief with our late arrival. We’d stay there again.

A perfect holiday

We have had such a wonderful time. The bach has lots of interesting spaces, not least being the bath on the roof which we just loved as night descended. We also loved the beach, just down a walkway, which was safe for the children and great for walking down. We felt that the bach was a 'proper' bach in that we could relax and enjoy it. Thank you very much for having us.

House was perfect for our family. Your cleaner may need to look up when cleaning bedrooms, as downstairs two bedrooms had large cobwebs the width of the beds. I left them there.Also the drive into house was very slippery,causing our car to slip when trying to leave. May need some netting on!!!! Also an outdoor light needed by main door.

Beautiful beach getaway

This is a great place to stay for a relaxing beach break - easy walking distance to the beach and biking/walking trails. It's two levels work well to give everyone a bit of space.

Home away from home

We loved our stay here. Perfect for what we wanted to do. Beautiful inside and out, great view of Kapiti Island. Only thing i could pick up was that the counters and front of the cupboards were dirty, also some spots on the kitchen floor had drops of food/sauce on it. Other than that it was perfect.Other that that it was perfect.

Lovely house

The house was a lovely place for my family too spend Christmas. The large living area meant that everyone had space (especially with the rainy days that we had). The proximity to the esplanade and QEII Park were great for walks. Really nice place overall. Communication with property owners was super easy, with an the information we needed.
