Seith 
“Loved this property, we stayed with a family group when down for a wedding and it was perfect, just like the photos!”
Wouldn't hesitate to use again, loved feeding the ducks and eels at the back of the property beyond the fence. Only one minor detail was the shower pressure in the sleepout closest to the house was weak but otherwise would highly recommend this property. Thank you.

Carla “Our stay was fine but few small things would have made all the difference, no flannels, no dishcloths in kitchen, dirty oven tray in oven.”
Bed side lights in bedroom would be nice.
- Carla, November 2024Thank you for your review Carla, we are sorry to hear there were issues at our property. We have addressed the cleaning issues with our local team. Thank you for taking the time to provide this feedback as we are always working on improving the care of our properties. Bachcare
Mike “Great location for our purposes and well suited to the golfing trip for us”
- Mike, June 2024Frances “There were some general cleanliness issues like a very dirty oven tray, rust stains on floor, under the couch and beds not cleaned, long dangly spider webs etc.”
The house looks a little tired compared to the listing photographs. Great fenced in outdoor space, private, and sunny! Heat pump was great, and the dishwasher nice and quiet. Some water pressure issues with the sleepouts.
- Frances, April 2024Thank you for your feedback, we are sorry to hear about the cleaning issues during your stay. This is not the standard we expect for our guests and will be following up with the local manager to ensure everything has been remedied and that future guests are not impacted Bachcare
Bojana “We loved Kuku villa.”
It was great with the sleepout for our group of 8. Lovely layout, plenty of space , comfortable furnitures, Bit low water pressure but still totally usable. 2 minutes walk to the beach. We definitely will return. Thank you
- Bojana, February 2024Tiffany “The property was awesome!”
We were really happy with our stay, thank you!
- Tiffany, February 2024Lisa “Beautiful family home we got to create memories with family from uk, very special, thank you x”
- Lisa, January 2024Brooke “Beautiful accomodation.”
Small things happened on our stay eg tap in kitchen leaked overnight, shower and toilet in sleep out 1 didn’t have much pressure. Deck by sleepout 2 is weak wouldn’t recommend kids to run on it. But overall a beautiful space for our family to relax and enjoy.
- Brooke, December 2023Hamish “Place is tired and has an eclectic mix of kitchen implements and dishes.”
Many of these were dirty and no corkscrew!!! Some showers have limited pressure and space in rooms and bathrooms is not as made to look in profile.
- Hamish, November 2023Ann “We’re a family of 6 adults coming to the Robbie Williams concert in Napier which is about half an hour away from Te Awanga.”
The Cottage was big enough to fit us all and had everything we needed. One thing I’d like to point out was we elected to bring our own bed sheets and towels, when we arrived the beds were already made up with sheets and towels were out for us. When I called Bachcare I was advised to take the sheets and towels away and use our own to avoid additional costs. Other than that we had a great time, many thanks to the owners
- Ann, November 2023Revin “Awesome place to stay with family and friends, great ambience and really loved the way those out houses were set up.”
Thank you
- Revin, October 2023Sandra “Great location for a get-away weekend with the siblings.”
We had a lovely stay, everyone was very comfortable. Had everything we needed to get through. Was a chilly weekend but had plenty of heating to keep us warm.
- Sandra, June 2023David “Can’t fault the property, excellent place for groups of couples with own space including ensuite in each unit.”
I continue to struggle with the over priced cleaning fee Bachcare charge, filth in main bathroom shower track dead crock roaches under bed in first unit and main bathroom - seemed like they had been there awhile...
- David, May 2023Marisa “We were surprised at how small the studios were but were adequate …furniture could do with recovering and tv would have been good to have had going on internet when there’s no sky … Overall we were happy and the beds were comfortable.”
Could do with instructions on tv etc and oven and barbecue could be checked that they clean before people get there.Great location
- Marisa, April 2023Thank you for your review Marisa, we're glad to hear you enjoyed your stay at Kuku Villa. We have taken this onboard and will pass this onto the property owners and local service team. We look forward to welcoming you back in the future! Bachcare
Morgan “Loved our stay at Te Awanga in Kuku Villa.”
It had everything we needed for our family holiday, and loved how we all had our own separate spaces with the two outside rooms which had their own bathrooms. The kids loved the little jetty to feed the ducks and eels. Close to great, kid friendly wineries and Cape Kidnappers for the golf lovers. Would love to stay again!
- Morgan, January 2023Shabnam “It is located at a quiet neighbourhood and close to nature.”
Finding the key box was quit tricky and would be better to provide the key of the main door instead of the back door.
- Shabnam, January 2023Thank you for your review Dr Shabnam, we're sorry to hear you had difficultly accessing the property. We have taken your feedback onboard and passed this onto the property owners for consideration. Bachcare
Wendy “House very tired.”
Areas within house very dirty. Furniture in need of repair. Outdoor furniture- some ripped or broken. BBQ old, wheel off. Enjoyed break there and location just disappointed with some aspects.
- Wendy, December 2022Thank you for your review, Wendy. We're sorry to hear you found some of the amenities and cleaning not up to standard. We have taken this onboard and passed this onto the property owners and our local service team. Bachcare
Gabrielle “Kuku Villa was just lovely.”
The home is tastefully decorated, lots of space for seating inside and out. Kitchen is great and a great supply and variety of crockery etc. Location was great also. The stay was perfect for our girls weekend and we couldn't recommend it more :)
- Gabrielle, November 2022Pia “Loved our time here!”
Worked perfectly for a group of friends. Clean and comfy. Hope to stay again sometime :)
- Pia, October 2022Kerry “It suited us perfectly.”
There was a broken champagne flute on the shelf, when we arrived .
