Kiwi Bach by the Beach

If beach holiday fits your lifestyle then this is the place for you. A comfortable but classic Kiwi bach for your family or friends to enjoy New Zealand’s special wild coastal charm. You can be active diving for paua or crayfish, or relax on the beach while you wait for a fish to hook up. The Mataikona coast is full of opportunities for those who simply enjoy walking and fossicking. Suitable for all year round, you can sit in the sun and watch the hypnotic surf from the deck with a nice, refreshing drink or stay inside playing darts and keeping warm by the woodburner. Head down the road to the Whakataki pub or the golf course, or visit the spectacular cliffs and views at Castlepoint.
Special conditions:
Smoking allowed outside only. Please note the bach is on tank water so conserving water is appreciated.
