Karen “Lovely place, Great location and plenty of room.”
Just a couple of let downs, lights not working, no Duvet cover on main bed, socks found in other bed downstairs. In saying that we would book again.

Paul “Great bach, beautiful views”
- Paul, February 2023Eva “We were very happy with the house!”
Didn’t expect it to be that lovely, very homely. Absolutely loved to see the Tui‘s and Bellbirds and other birds. Also very comfortable beds. Fresh lemons from the garden, fresh eggs. This was one of the best holiday houses we ever stayed at. Highly highly recommend. Only downside was the noise. There was a party around somewhere, not sure if this is a regular thing or not, but apart from that, awesome holiday.
- Eva, January 2023Clayton “We really enjoyed our stay, great location and fantastic lounge/dining area.”
We did however need to use the washing machine and it seems the owners may have a wookie living there as everything came out caked in hair. Added to that, we had to fix the clothesline I order to hang our washing. Overall though, we really enjoyed our stay.
- Clayton, October 2022Thanks for your review of your stay at Pointers, you are right in saying it is a fantastic location. You will be pleased to know the washing machine has been addressed. Thanks Bachcare
Marie “A beautiful sunny home, wonderful place to stay especially as it was in winter ...”
A beautiful sunny home, wonderful place to stay especially as it was in winter having a log burner the home was so warm thanks so very much we had a great time
- Marie, July 2022Ruby “This property was perfect for a big family get away.”
There was plenty of room for everyone and ample space to just be together as a family. Only a short stroll to the waterfront and shops also made this an ideal location. Would highly recommend this property.
- Ruby, May 2022Anji “Excellent views, warm inviting home with great options for out door entertaining.”
- Anji, April 2022Francesca “There was no firewood for the fire No access to the spa.”
You should not have photos of it if it can not be used Found children's used underwear inside The no refund under 60 days is absolutely ridiculous. Will not use bach care again.
- Francesca, February 2022Jarryd “Our stay was very relaxed.”
The house was excellent and well presented it has everything you need and more. We would definitely go back.
- Jarryd, December 2021Vanessa “Property was lovely well equipped kitchen for a larger family group.”
Very homely.
- Vanessa, October 2021Lucy “We were after a few relaxing days away, and this certainly delivered.”
From the moment we arrived the house was warm and inviting (thanks for popping the heaters on!). We found everything we needed in the kitchen when it came time to cooking, and enjoyed spending time at the table watching the birds out the window. We were spoiled on our last morning to have our morning coffee watching a pair of Kererū! Everything was within walking distance, perfectly located for a walk down for coffee or dinner.

- Lucy, May 2021Sarah “The property was really lovely.”
Comfy and cosy and had a nice nautical theme running throughout. The kitchen is very clean and modern as is the bathroom. Great fire that kept us cosy and warm when the temp fell. Great offstreet parking for our cars and jetski - all fitted easily in the parking area.
- Sarah, April 2021Amanda “Loved staying at this house.”
Beautiful views and amazing bird life that kept us entertained whilst we enjoyed a drink on the deck. Close to the township. Very cosy home away from home.
- Amanda, April 2021Rachel “Awesome house, so clean and well maintained.”
Sofa beds really only for kids :)
- Rachel, February 2021Jasmyn “Beautiful property, perfect for our family trip away!”
- Jasmyn, October 2020Heather “This property is so comfortable, spacious and attractive - just right for our family.”
It really was 'home away from home'. A really nice log burner with good quality wood that lasts a long time. Lots of indoor and outdoor seating, a pleasant walk down to village but also good parking. The house a peaceful rural outlook on one side and a view of the ocean from the front. Love the yachting theme throughout. A lovely place to relax over shared meals, read and play board games.

Adults should closely supervise young children to ensure that they do not climb the horizontal wooden slats in the deck barrier.
As the deck barrier is below 1 metre high and there is a retaining wall without a barrier, all guests should take care in these areas due to the risk of falls.
