The property
Discover the charm of Ocean Breeze, a delightful 1940s beach bungalow just a block from beautiful Foxton Beach. This sunny, three-bedroom bach is the perfect retreat, offering cozy open-plan living with polished floors, ideal for a romantic getaway or a family weekend. Step outside to the fully fenced yard, where large decks beckon for alfresco dining and bi-fold windows and doors connect the kitchen to the outdoors. The good-sized lawn is perfect for pitching tents, and the 65sqm garage is a haven for teenagers and families, complete with a pool table, tennis table, dart board, Xbox, large TV, and sofa. The bach accommodates up to six guests with two king beds, a king single bunk bed, and a neat bathroom with laundry. Pets and young kids will love the secure outdoor space, and the modern amenities inside promise a relaxing stay. The modern kitchen is equipped with a dishwasher, fridge, microwave, blender, and coffee plunger, making meal prep a breeze. Enjoy your favorite shows on the Smart TV, stay warm with the heat pump, and make use of the BBQ and gas bottle for outdoor cooking. Located just a short walk from the beach and the Ocean Beach Eatery, you can enjoy cocktails or ice cream in the sun, or a beer and meal in the restaurant. The local tennis courts, skate park, playground, Holben Parade Reserve, Foxton Beach Campground, estuary, sand dunes, forest walks, Manawatu River, and mountain biking tracks are all nearby. A five-minute drive takes you to the Manawatu Boat Club for dinner or drinks, Mr. Grumpy's for great takeaways, and the local Four Square for supplies. Foxton township shops, including a New World, cafes, shops, the De Molen Dutch Windmill, Foxton Swimming Pool, and Off the Loop Aqua Park, are just ten minutes away.

“Thank you. I filled in your questionnaire but at the bottom, it said "invalid reply" so am not sure you got it.”
Anyway, a very comfortable, welcoming bach. The big hiccup was no hot water on our first night - both gas bottles were empty. Bachcare said we'd called outside business hours and after a few attempts to talk to someone, Bachcare said they'd send someone the next morning. At 8.30pm, we found a small bbq gas bottle in the garage which we used and managed quick hot showers that night. That mistake should never have happened.

Anyway, a very comfortable, welcoming bach. The big hiccup was no hot water on our first night - both gas bottles were empty. Bachcare said we'd called outside business hours and after a few attempts to talk to someone, Bachcare said they'd send someone the next morning. At 8.30pm, we found a small bbq gas bottle in the garage which we used and managed quick hot showers that night. That mistake should never have happened. A comment on the bach info on line should mention about the undrinkable tap water so people can come prepared with bottled water. We had to buy 3 large bottles the following day. A large sun umbrella would have been good, for the outside porch. Having access to the wardrobe in the first bedroom would have been great rather than stacking clothes on the floor. Apart from the above comments, we really enjoyed the beautiful bach. And we appreciated being able to extend our departure time by 2 hours. Regards Anna
Hi Anna, Thanks for your feedback, we have taken it onboard and am purchasing a sun umbrella to shade the outdoor furniture when it is out. We are also arranging to have the large gas bottles set up so they are used one at a time rather than auto switching. That way we will know when a bottle is empty and can arrange to have a new one delivered but there will also be a full bottle always available to switch too. It’s a bit of a learning for us as with the set up as we have never had them completely empty before. Bachcare contacted us re the gas and we suggested the small gas bottles after doing some online research but it sounds like you were already ahead of us. We arranged for the emergency exchange on Sat morning with Genesis Energy and signed off on extending your stay through to mid afternoon if required so I am not sure why Bachcare restricted the timing to Midday. We are also looking to get some work done on the water filters which will hopefully ensure the reticulated water tastes better. It’s not something that we have had guests comment on previously so hasn’t been on our radar. There are actually pull out draws under the bed in the main bedroom for guests to use as the lockable wardrobe is full of cleaning products and personal gear. We have added that info to the bach information so future guests know they are there. We do want people to enjoy the Bach as much as we do so really value your constructive feedback. Many thanks Shane and Leanne Bachcare
