It has the best location that we have probably ever stayed at. The estuary is so nice & safe for the kids but the ocean is right there too, for the best sunrises & sunsets ever :-) We can’t wait to come back! ##### Annabelle B.

Perfect location to the lagoon, which was awesome for my young girls 4&2\. Such a nice nostalgia to the bach with everything you may need. Recommended. ##### Patrick S.

Lots of things to keep you entertained if the weather isn't so ideal. We had no idea what to expect as our first holiday travelling with an infant, but the place had everything we needed and some things we didnt even realise we needed! The host was communicative and available for enquiries. We're already talking about booking this property as an annual thing. ##### Rachael B.

Perfect for our final 4 nights in New Zealand. So nice to have provided kayaks and boogie boards. The beach is sandy and the waves were fun. It's conveniently close to other fun things in the area like donut island, the gold country gorge, and the hidden cove at the headland on the other end of the beach. Could see sunrises from the porch! ##### David N. Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2024 ---
