Good Location
Nice compact place to stay, a bit rusty traditional kiwi bach with a fireplace. Our host was very easy to communicate. Only a few minutes walk to the wharf.

Comfortable and close to beach
House was tidy and had all the amenities, futon fold out was in dining room area so sleeping where we ate was not ideal. Will book again with less people.

Comfortable digs in Kawhia
Beautiful weekend. Including the power outage. Felt like we were locals. Enjoyed all the candles. The wind and the rain outside was wonderful in front of the roaring fire. Dry and warm. Of course when we had to go into the rain not so cool. House was beautiful and warm overnight and . And when we got back from the wedding. Was just a wonderful weekend. Thank you soo much. I recommend Roberta’s home away from home.

A wonderful and relaxing Bach in Kāwhia
The little Bach is a relaxing and perfectly located for down time in a great little beach town. We could walk everywhere we needed to go and everything we would expect to find in the house was there. Roberts was easy to reach and communicated well. I really appreciate her attention, we felt welcome and at home. I highly recommend a stay in Kahwia.

Perfect, cost effective, bach for a quick getaway. Thank you Roberta for your awesome communication. Although it rained all weekend, the internet and fire were a welcome bonus. Will definitely book again next time we are in Kawhia.

Great bach in central Kawhia
We enjoyed our stay in Kawhia - the bach is a great size for a small to medium family and has a nice sunny deck. Perfect location just a couple of minutes' walk to the waterfront.
