Perfect Location

Perfect location, shops are nearby but not too close to feel busy, beach is about a minute walk, and the layout of the house is perfect for multiple families/big groups. Plenty to do nearby with Waipu, Mangawhai and Whangarei a short drive away. Glynis was a fantastic host, incredibly accommodating and clear communication.

Couldn't ask for better

This property was an excellent place for us 1942ers to celebrate a belated 80th birthday with our partners as well. Lovely walks on the beach, after the cyclone, and not too far from Whangarei for us to explore the Town Basin etc. Good eating cafes and restaurants in the area as well.

Incredible stay in Ruakaka

The location of the Bach was incredible. The kitchen had everything you could need. The Bach had so much space for 3 families so that kids and adults could spread out and enjoy time hanging out. The beach and dairy are within minutes walking distance. We will definitely return.

What an amazing home, we will be back. This is a 5 star home, lots of bedrooms and beautiful open plan upstairs. Thankyou for having us to stay. The kids love roller skating and scootering on the concrete paths, easy short access to the beach, great fishing and swimming :)
