“We had an absolute blast!”

Beautiful location to relax. Close enough to the marina and right next to a bay for the kids to explore and a beautiful walk just up the road. Plenty of space for us all to enjoy. And an excellent games room! The only issue was that we received an email a few days before that said all we needed to bring were beach towels, but we found this was a generic email and linen was not actually provided as we hadn’t included this in our booking so we had to go to Blenheim and purchase sheets and bath ...

“Kiwibach is in an excellent location and has plenty of space and a good set up for groups to spend time together.”

Great views. Some downsides though, the bathrooms were pretty dirty and there were only two toilet rolls for 7 guests on arrival, and when we requested more they weren’t dropped off until the last night of our stay, which meant a drive to Havelock to get our own. Good games room though and the kitchen is well stocked with everything you need.

Thank you for your feedback Sam. We're sorry to hear about the cleaning and consumables issues during your stay. This isn't the standard we expect for our guests and we will be following up with the local manager to ensure everything has been remedied so that future guests are not impacted. Bachcare

“Clean, spacious home with amazing views from the house and decks.”

Loved the quiet bay. We had a great stay - thank you! We had everything we needed but just one niggle - no hand soap for the basins and only a miniscule amount of toilet paper left for our stay which didn't last long and no more provided that we could find. Wouldn't have minded bringing these things with us if we knew in advance that we had to but there was nothing about this in the house information we received before our stay. A bit annoying as for the price of the property and as with other similar properties we have stayed at we would expect these basics to be provided especially given location as conveniences aren't closeby.

“Great place to stay plenty of space for the whole extended family.”

Beautiful outlook and handy to all amenities in Havelock. Water pressure is not that flash upstairs.

“So happy with the property.”

It was so clean, so relaxing. Great for a location to do multiple things like the games room or walk at the bay. Board games or chill. We went into the wineries via a shuttle and it was further in then we had planned but that made it more magic to feel like a real get away. Highly recommend!

The property

Overlooking sweeping views of Belvue Bay, this Havelock holiday home is perfectly set up for two or three families to come together for a seaside getaway, and even offers a dedicated games room. Welcome to Kiwibach! You get the best of both worlds at this wonderful Marlborough Sounds base. Enjoy being walking distance from the public access way to the waters edge and also the Linkwater Pathway for walking and cycling. Or, jump in the car for about 10 minutes to reach the towns of Havelock and Anakiwa where you can launch the boat to check out Pelorus or Queen Charlotte Sound (respectively). This two-storey holiday home features an open-plan living and dining area and well-equipped kitchen, which create a great space for everyone to come together. A Smart TV and complimentary WiFi offer entertainment and connectivity, or why not switch off and get stuck into one of the available books or a board game challenge. You’ll love the dedicated games room at Kiwibach, which boasts a pool table, dart boards, and even a foosball table. Talk about maximum fun for the whole family! The living space effortlessly flows out onto the large deck area, where you can fire up the BBQ, pour yourself an ice-cold drink, then feast around the large outdoor table while the sun goes down. If you need to top up on supplies or fancy a meal out instead, the town of Havelock offers delicious cafes and restaurants, as well as a well-stocked Four Square supermarket. Experience the beauty and serenity of this region right from your door step. Kiwibach awaits you!

Adults should closely supervise young children to ensure that they do not climb the horizontal wooden slats in the deck barrier.

Children should be supervised in the games room.

Please note a bond may be charged at certain times of the year. One of our team members will contact you if this is required for your booking.
