This house is a fantastic location if you are in Raglan to surf. The house was nice and clean, with plenty of space. Julls was a great host, giving us access a bit early as soon as the place was ready after the last guests, and quick with replies to any questions I had. Would happily stay here again.

We loved staying at this property! Our large extended family, from 18 to 82, were able to socialize, explore, relax and discover the area in comfort and style. Beautiful property, lacking in nothing. Thank you!

It was a lovely, clean and warm home, and large enough to lodge 12 adults. It is very close to the sea if you love surfing. Our only disappointment was that a hot tub is on the Bookabach description and there was no hot tub to be found.

We loved our stay here. Two families of 5 - we had a ball. Easy walk to the beach where there was a popular surf break and good for spectating too! House was very comfortable and had everything we needed. Close to Mt Karioi which provided a spectacular day of hiking. Only a 10 min drive into the town of Raglan. Super spot.

Our stay was lovely & the house was perfect in size for our group of friends & kids . The location was great to 😊 Unfortunately the big room with the single beds had an interesting smell to it & there was quite a few cockroaches in that room but no other rooms in the house. One of the smoke alarms went off due to low battery to in early hours of Monday morning . Overall we loved our stay and would definitely recommend. Had all the facilities and space we required to make everyone’s stay a comfortable and enjoyable one. Julls is a fantastic host , very easy to liaise with & kept us well informed on Raglan & updated on road closures and travel alternatives.

The home was large, open and a delight to stay at. Even though it could get cold, heaters in all the rooms took care of that. Just a cool place to relax in. Close to the surf and quick drive to everywhere.
