“Happy with response, does not breach our guidelines”
Hi Richard, Firstly, I would like to thank you for the feedback that you have left, we appreciate any and all comments to help us improve our service and ensure a great experience for future guests. We do agree that the spa is fantastic, and that the bathroom, lounge and decor/furniture is nicely done and maximises comfort. We feel that the photos are an accurate representation of the space provided at the property as it is clearly a compact property, as well as the external photos that show the property is indeed surrounded by trees and birdlife, as mentioned in our description. While the creek that runs near/through the property is not present in the description, the property is not built on a swamp as was outlined in your feedback. We have sent our local property manager to assess the situation regarding any space that can be added to the property by arranging the plants and furniture more effectively, as well as fixing the issues your pointed out with a couple of the appliances. Lastly, you will be happy to know that the description has been amended to more accurately reflect the sleepout which is present in the photos. Once again, we are happy that you found the spa, decor and furniture to be great, and hope you join us again for an improved stay Bachcare

Waiheke is home to a number of local artists, crafts people and writers, who all enjoy the unique combination of lifestyles that the island offers. Visitors to Waiheke will enjoy the award-winning vineyards, charter boats and tours, kayaking, horse trekking, mountain biking, bushwalking and golfing. Onetangi is well-known for its wide, safe swimming beach and is a popular spot for picnics and gatherings. Ostend is the central hub of Waiheke Island and is home to the Saturday Morning Markets, where visitors can enjoy local produce and crafts. It is also a short drive from delightful Rocky Bay, a sheltered South-side bay offering peace, tranquility, and the ambiance of Waiheke Island of years gone by. Whakanewha Regional Park, located in the southern part of Waiheke, is a native coastal forest with a fantastic network of walking tracks. It is home to a variety of native flora and fauna, including the Kererū, pīwakawaka, tūī, grey warbler, and silver eye. The park also features a historic Māori pā site and Pākehā settlements.
