Elinor 
“Absolutely amazing spot.”
Proximity to shop and the beach was perfect and amenities like the outdoor shower with hot water absolutely enhanced our stay. Awesome spot for outdoor BBQ's in the evening on the spacious deck. Will be booking again.

Marti “We loved this bach.”
Spacious, clean and tidy, with wonderful decks and living areas to spread out and enjoy when we were not out enjoying the beach. Only a short easy walk to the beach and very close to the Hahei shops. Fantastic in all these ways! My favorite thing was the outdoor shower. Simply awesome! However, we did have some hiccups. First, the listing says there are 4 bedrooms. This is incorrect. There is an upstairs mezzanine (open) that has a sofa which makes out into a bed, but it is not a bedroom. That bed was not made up when we arrived, and we had to figure all of that out, then move one of the mattresses from the kids bunk up to the mezzanine in order for our 20 yr-old daughter to have someplace to sleep. I guess they assumed we had adults that all could sleep together. Even if that had been the case, we still would have been one bed short without relying on that mezzanine sofa-bed thing (because my mother did not travel with us, so we were actually just 5 adults + 1 child). So, they didn't seem interested in accommodating our family the way we described ourselves and what we would need. Second, we had booked for 6 adults and 1 child, but were only left enough towels for 5 people, even though we paid for all linens (which should have been enough for 7 people as booked and paid for). Third, the power went out for half the house, so we spent one evening + overnight in the dark. The electrician who came the next day to fix it said the same thing (power outage) had happened the previous week, so this was not a one-off occurrence. Overall it was a great holiday for us, because the beach and house are awesome, but we can't give it 10 out of 10 due to these issues we had.
- Marti, January 2024Thank you for your review Marti, we're glad to hear you enjoyed your stay at The Bach Retreat. We apologise for the listing error, the mezzanine floor had pulled through as a 4th bedroom accidentally, this has now been fixed. With regards to beds, our local services team would have made up the beds as per the listing (2x queen, single bed and bunk beds) and would not have set up sofa beds unless requested. We have spoken with our local services to ensure the correct number of linen sets are provided for future guests. Bachcare
Natasha “Amazing property to stay at, so central to the beach and shops.”
Lovely and clean! Well equipped bach. Comfortable beds and the outdoor shower was a highlight. We definitely will be back to stay.
- Natasha, October 2023Tracy “House was in a great location, kitchen didn’t have a pantry or anywhere to put food, and we only got 1 rubbish bag for the 8 nights we stayed, not enough with the 6 people we had with us, and only 1 toilet, but I guess it’s a Bach.”
Beds comfortable. We enjoyed our time there.
- Tracy, January 2023June “Lovely holiday house to stay, couple of minutes walk to the beach and local shops and cafes.”
The Kitchen and Bathroom facilities modern and clean. Loved the hammocks on the back porch looking out on to native bush. We would defiantly stay again
- June, March 2022Matthew “Great location and well set up for a family with multiple bed configurations and plenty of space to spread out.”
Back deck a super sun trap and great place for bbq dinner / lunch. Only one bathroom - but it’s a bach …
- Matthew, January 2022Julie “38 Hahei beach road was an ideal place for our whanau to stay while we attended a wedding.”
The location close to the beach and shop was another plus. The kitchen, laundry and bathroom facilities were clean and had plenty of crockery, pots etc. Thank you Bachcare for your great service and support.
- Julie, December 2021Rachel “This Bach is perfect for families with three bedrooms all in separate parts of the Bach.”
The beds were comfortable and there was plenty of bedding. The Bach was full stocked with everything you needed for your stay. There were two smart TV’s which was great for downtime. The outdoor shower was fun. The Bach was only 3 minutes to the beautiful beach and 1 minuet to the shops. We look forward to returning again sometime soon.
- Rachel, October 2021Kieran “Excellent property, well appointed, great outdoor living, and you can’t beat the excellent location.”
- Kieran, February 2021Nicholai “Great Bach, awesome locations.”
Ray the Bachcare Manager was very accommodating and awesome communicator. The Bach was a typical kiwiana getaway. Really enjoyed it
- Nicholai, January 2021Kylie “Amazing location!”
Easy walk to the shops and beach. We had a great time. Only real downside were the beds, which were uncomfortable and need an upgrade.
- Kylie, December 2020Thank you for your review! We are happy to hear you enjoyed the location. We are sorry to hear you didn’t enjoy the beds. Mattresses are a personal preference, however we will pass along your feedback to the owner. Bachcare

- Fiona, November 2020Vanessa “We had a lovely mini break.”
great location, excellent for families with break out options for teens. Well equipped kitchen facilities, expansive decking and dining options, would love to stay again soon. Thank you for having us and sharing your slice of Hahei
- Vanessa, February 2020Kerry “The bach was great for our family, close to the beach and shops.”
Excellent outdoor area. Great location.
- Kerry, February 2020Ronald “Awesome stay.”
Great location. Easy stroll to shops and beach.
- Ronald, January 2020Cheri Leigh “This house was perfect for two families.”
The location was awesome - close to a beautiful beach and the cute town centre. The house was clean and well set up. Some beach gear to borrow would’ve been handy.
- Cheri Leigh, December 2019Caroline “This is a great house for a beach holiday.”
It has everything you need. A modern kitchen stocked with crockery, glassware, utensils and cooking items. It even has egg cups. It’s in a brilliant location. A 2 minute walk to the beach in one direction and a 1 minute walk to a great cafe, general store and a micro brewery in the other direction. The house itself is spacious and well laid out. It has an outdoor shower that’s heated which makes it easier to get sand off children before traipsing through the house. I’d highly recommend this property.
- Caroline, November 2019Fiona “As above...”
. Once again, a fantastic setting, with everything we could have possibly needed. We have been there as a couple previously and returned with our (adult) children who thoroughly loved their stay. Hope to make this a yearly treat.
- Fiona, November 2019vaishali “Love this property , best for family holiday .”
- vaishali, October 2019Fiona “Amazing property.”

- Fiona, September 2019Beth “This is a lovely sunny Bach very comfortable, fantastic location, great deck.”
Would definitely come back to this one.
- Beth, April 2019Kiel “The Bachcare manager provided great information prior to arrival.”
and the house was amazing. one of the best Bachcare experiences i have had.
- Kiel, March 2019Sandra “Perfect location beach 50m down the road.”
Shops 20m down the road. Near to the start of cathedral cove walk. House was well stocked with kitchen things and had everything we needed for our holiday. Nice size for our 2 families with small children.
- Sandra, February 2019Paul “Fantastic location - equally short stroll to both the beach and the shops.”
Great setup for kids with the bunk room. Not as much lawn as what the photos make it look like but still enough room for kids to play. Amazing outdoor shower for after the beach. Easy walk from the house to Cathedral Cove.
- Paul, January 2019Lorraine “Great location, literally 5 minutes walk to Hahei beach and less than 3 minutes walk to the shops & food.”
- Lorraine, December 2018Cherie “We really enjoyed our stay.”
The only complaint was that we did not have more time to enjoy the lovely outdoor area. Some may complain that it is not luxurious enough but we felt it was a good balance for a holiday and we felt comfortable enough traipsing in from the beach without being concerned of ruining carpets etc. It was easy to clean and comfortable. As for the location, well you can't ask for much better, close enough to the beach but far enough not to be harassed by the activity on the beach.
