The Bach is in a lovely quiet and beautiful location with sunset views over the water and clear starlight nights. Good bush walks close by, to Matarangi beach. As the Bach is self cleaning you rely on the previous guest to leave the place clean. There are plenty of cleaning equipment available which is great. You need to take all linen with you and pillows, blankets,sheets,towels,bath mat,tea towels etc. We enjoyed our stay but regretted not taking any blankets as the ones provided were old and musty. A NZ bach experience in the perfect spot. Need to stock up with food and provisions in Whitianga which is only 30mins away, prior to arrival as only small shops close by.
