Character beach bach
Welcome to our wonderful kiwi Bach, where childhood holidays are relived.
The Bach features 4 bedrooms and can easily sleep 10 people in beds. Two bedrooms with double beds, two bedrooms with three single beds. Please bring your own linen.
Open plan living and dining, both indoors and out.
Features 2 toilets, 1 new bathroom, outdoor shower, full laundry including drier and a kitchen with two fridges, a microwave, and an oven.
The large back deck has ample bbq, dining and living space and is drenched in afternoon and evening sun, it becomes a communal gathering point daily. We have a large shade sail covering the back deck to ensure shade. We have a large back yard great for summer cricket or sunbathing.
The section is fully fenced, making it a great option for young families, no pets please.
Just a 3 minute walk to the shops (inluding a 4Square, a bottle shop, butcher, fish and chips and plenty of licensed cafes and restaurants, surf shop, chemist, dress shops and a gift shop) and a 4 minute walk to the beach, our bach is perfectly located to be convenient to everything Waihi Beach offers.
The swimming beach is safe for families, there are lifeguards down the northern end of the beach and there are many walks to do both immediately in Waihi Beach and in the surrounding area.
We've made many wonderful family memories here and we hope you enjoy your stay. Special conditions: Rubbish day is Monday and official rubbish bags are available from the 4Square. If you leave the bach on any other day of the week please take all rubbish with you. Rubbish must not be left on the street on a Sunday. Please consider our neighbors. Please turn off the main switch inside the bach before you leave. Thank you, enjoy your stay.
Extras: Cleaning (Required, NZ$50.00 per stay); NOTE: Under Kiwi bach tradition you are expected to: Bring your own linen (towels/sheets/tea towels);

The batch was perfect for what we needed. Plenty of space in and outside. Close to the beach, close to main stores.Checkin was super easy.We had a great family time !
We had a nice break at Waihi Beach. The house is fairly basic but very clean and in a great location. Beds are all very comfortable, wifi was excellent (always a bonus with teens).
Loved how homely and comfortable the house was. Loads of room for littlies, teens and oldies together.
Recommend house to all looking for laidback relaxation- cheers bookabach.
We had a great stay at this authentic kiwi bach. It was perfect for our 2 families to merge and enjoy the beach and relaxation out on the deck. Plenty of space for the kids and all the ammenities you could need. We'll be back for sure!
Had a great stay at this bach, had everything we needed including BBQ, big back yard, ample beds, and awesome social set up.
We had a mix of older adults, older teens and kids, everyone enjoyed their stay! We will be back, thank you!
Bit of a hiccup due to misunderstanding with check in but bookabach support team went over and beyond to sort out for us. Property host apologised profusely for hiccup, she was lovely . The house was amazing, homely, cosy with everything we needed for a stress free time. Many thanks to bookabach, and to our lovely host. Absolutely recommend them both.
We had a great experience at this Bach. Great location and such a good layout for family and children.
We enjoyed our stay. Thank you for letting us stay. ❤️
Absolutely loved the layout of the house and indoor-outdoor flow. Superb breeze flew through the doors and windows. Large windows in dining and kitchen allowed for easy communication to people enjoying the seating area on the deck. Very large lounge area for family chill out time in the evening. Bedroom positioning allows for peaceful rest day or night. Many lovely memories and definitely would like to return to make more in the future.
We really enjoyed our stay. Nice and close to the shops and the beach. The house was a great size for our group. Great friendly communication with the owner. Thank you.
The Bach is basic but clean, perfect location and has everything you need. Deck area is fantastic and spacious and lounge is a great size. We will be back.
What a great classic kiwi Bach experience! House was exactly as described, great location with everything you need and good communication from the owner :-)
Perfect for a short stay. Big outdoor area with BBQ. Everything you need. Even a hot outdoor shower .
Short walk to beach in one direction and to the bakery in the other. Recommended.
