We started our NZ trip here, and I’m so glad we did. The Coromandel Peninsula is the opposite of a tourist trap. We felt like we were in a place that was remote and private.
Bach’s are like hippy surfer shacks in NZ (at least to my understanding) and Jude has an exquisite home in which they’ve built a Bach on their property.
It sits perched on a hill overlooking the ocean and beach. Absolutely fantastic views, both day and night (have never seen stars like that).
The cafe and pizza restaurant down the street was pure good vibes and the whole general feel was so great.
Jude was a wonderful host, amongst the best we’ve experienced. Would recommend to anyone!
