We attended a wedding at Orere Point, stayed two nights. Well equipped Bach, quick stroll to coffee, lovely sunrises and ocean view. Six adults managed the space, bunk beds were OK for our short stay. Thank you, would stay again.

Wonderful relaxing stay
Felt like a genuine Kiwi Bach by the sea, loved it,had everything you would need and would have been comfortable regardless of the weather. Would absolutely stay there again. Paul was helpful and always available if needed. Perfect spot if you want to relax and just look at the water. Great playground for the kids across the road, and we found some nice swimming spots nearby.

Super cute and super location
Very cute seaside bach in an awesome location, just over the road from the sea. Clean, very comfortable and well equipped, with a fully fenced garden. Also really good communication from the owner. Highly recommended for a summer holiday or a short winter getaway.
