About this property

Classic 50’s Beach Bach - Handy to Everything

  • In the heart of Paraparaumu Beach, the ideal location for an escape from busy lives. The beach is so close you can smell the fresh sea air and hear the waves. Stroll down to local cafes for that lazy brunch before hitting the golf course or enjoying the beach.

    The Bach is set back from the road ensuring absolute privacy and is amongst mature trees providing shade for those long hot summer days. You will enjoy the compact nature of property and the flow out to a large deck for relaxing with family and friends.

    Includes Sky basic and Wifi

    Notes:
    - The single beds are bunk beds.
    - Standard checkin is 2pm and checkout is 10am. These times can be changed by arrangement if circumstances allow (ie no adjacient booking)
    - Rubbish is to be taken away by guests (if practical).

Great location, clean and comfortable.

Just as advertised this is an older bach, clean and comfortable, in a great location a minutes walk from beach, shops and cafes and yet quiet and private, in an elevated position to catch views of the sea and Kapiti Island, and good afternoon sun, for a very affordable fee. We appreciated the excellent communication from our hosts, thank you.

A spacious home, handy to the shops and beach. We were very thankful for the air conditioning. Easy to find and nice and quiet. The master bedroom was nice and spacious. The deck needs replacing and it looks like the host is replacing this now.

Coming back to Golf Rd

Amazing..... Kapiti Island is a beautiful place to see in the morning and taking a stroll down memory lane along the beach.. Managers/Owners are very easy to communicate with and very accomodating. As a person who grew up in the Kapiti Coast, this will be mine and my family's destination spot. Hoping to beable to come back with whole family next time..... Well worth the stay... Thank you very much

Kapiti Bach

Our stay was ok, but found some basics lacking and the property has had some renovation, but there is still a lot to be done to bring it up to scratch. Firstly the building is old and decrepid, with rotting weatherbords evident. The bathroom window ledge has been taped up and painted to hide the rot, with the outside so rotten, it's a wonder the window frame doesn't fall out. The house needs repiling, as you're nearly running from the bedroom to the kitchen. Most doors don't fit well. Venetian blinds old and tatty. The above oven fan is disgusting. No female hygiene container in bathroom. Lounge poorly lit. The 2 tin stools in the kitchen are disgusting.The site should be taken off the market until improved, and guests shouldn't be asked to take their own rubbish away at end of stay. Host was easily contactable, and beautiful view of the beach and Kapiti Island

A wonderful stay at a lovely Bach, great location. We will definitely be booking again! Could have done with an extra stool / seat in the kitchen at the table and we couldn’t find any coffee? But these didn’t affect our stay.

Excellent location for visiting Kapiti island.House was spacious but very dated and oven didnt work.Read the small print when booking this property as there are extra charges for basics such as sheets and towels and cleaning which is the first time we have come across this having stayed in many propertys across nz.

We had a great stay here, it is very close to the beach and Paraparaumu Beach shops. The property is easy to find and the off street parking is easy to navigate in and out. The house is nice and comfortable with a fantastic view of Kapiti Island.
