We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Beachfront Escape. It's perfect for a couple to relax and get away from it all. With a view of Tapeka Beach and the bay, it's very peaceful. The wraparound porch is great for relaxing. If it gets windy, just move to another side. The kitchen is well furnished, everything we needed to cook at home some nights. Other nights, Restaurants in Russell are just 2km away. Lots of sliding doors to let in the fresh air. We didn't need heat or air conditioning.

Had a great time, and what a lovely site, sitting on the deck looking straight over the beach. Thanks Clive! Would happily stay again.The only negative was web-site check-in related: It apparently seemed necessary to both register with another (parent?) booking organisation and then install and use a phone app, in order to be able to communicate with the host about check-in.

We had a wonderful time in this beautiful and well-equipped house right by the sea and couldn't get enough of the enchanting sea view with its ever-changing watercolour. Enjoying our morning coffee and evening BBQ on the gorgeous deck, going for a swim just in front of the house and taking advantage of the generously provided kayaks created beautiful memories for us and the wish to come back again soon. Not to forget our lovely host, who was so kind and welcoming that we instantly felt at home. Thank you so much Clive!

This cute cottage close to the water is small but has what you need for a couple. Great venue for an active holiday of walking, swimming and kayaking. Or just gazing out to sea. Not very private if that matters to you.

This property is amazing, it is literally the definition of 'beach house', beautiful views, an all-tide-swim beach and the sound of waves in the background. The bach itself is also very well-appointed and we had a comfortable stay. We cannot recommend Tapeka bach enough.

We arrived at the house and instantly felt relaxed looking at the beautiful view of the harbor from the covered veranda. The house is well equipped and the perfect getaway for two!

This property is the best - even better than described, with very attentive hosts, well appointed, excellent amenities, and the perfect place to unwind. We thought we had arrived in heaven, though St Peter was nowhere to be found, so no embarrassing admissions required on arrival. Watch or walk the beach; walk to Russell to earn coffee and treats (lovely bushwalk with a hill at the Russell end); walk to the peak behind the Bach; treat this as a destination in itself - such a beautiful setting.

Great view and wonderful sunsets!
Safe, tranquil neighbourhood, desolate in winter (great!) the beach is all yours!, but probably you're not alone in Summer here...
5 min drive to Russell, Long Beach...
It's a tiny house so 2 is fine, 3 is a crowd, except a baby (smiley)

Tapeka was an amazing place for our Bay of Island holiday base. A brilliant bach with beautiful views in a lovely quiet settlement with friendly folk - direct access to a quiet beach was brilliant. Location is easy for Russell etc - bach had everything we needed - comms with the property manager was excellent. A sensation spot that we'd love to go back to one day.

We stayed at beautiful Takepa Point Bach for 7 nights in early Feb 2022. The wrap around deck provides protection from all weather and the close proximity to the beach was wonderful. Beautifully appointed Bach which had everything we needed. Thank you Clive for welcoming us to your piece of paradise.

This was a wonderful stay. Perfect for a couples retreat weekend away. The location is superb and so close to Russell if you wanted to get out for a brunch or supplies - highly recommended.

Our stay at Tepeka beach bach was perfect. We wanted a quiet break before the xmas silly season started and the bach was ideally located. It was great to get back to the bach after a day out exploring and watch the sunset over the bay. The guinea pig was a bit of a shock and the Weka was a pleasant surprise sadly no Kiwi. Maybe next time.

This beach Bach has everything we needed. Comfortable, spacious, air conditioning, easy beach access, amazing views, just fantastic is all I can say. It was great having a washer and dryer too. Clive was very responsive to our every need/question. I highly recommend this bach. The kayaks don’t have rod holders if you’re planning on fishing but there is a dingy also so no worries there since you can use it for fishing. We had a great stay!
