Perfect Family Getaway in the Far North!

Fantastic holiday home! It had everything we needed, even to keep the kids (8 and 12) entertained on a rainy day. The attention to detail was impressive, making it super comfortable and stress-free. A perfect spot if you’re visiting the far, far north – highly recommend!

The perfect rural experience

Kaimaumau is a very special little community largely untouched by the rat race. Here you can slow right down to what ever pace you choose in the stunning surroundings of Rangaunu harbour. Kisrty and Roger are wonderful hosts and have added lovely small touches to make the place special.

Enjoyed our stay

We got the address a couple of days before checking in. It has what we need and we slept well there. No wifi but does have phone coverage. It's good for the kids not sticking to the devices. The location was great for a day trip to the top of north island, sand dunes and 90 miles beach. We liked our stay there. Thanks

Home away from 🏡

This bach ticked all the boxes yet those pics captured as great as they are don't do justice for this gawjizzz cosy gem. Family was already in awe from our booking and pics viewed and I was already captured by lovely & friendly host Kirsty from her awesome & prompt responses from the beginning &- throughout our stay. Highly recommend this sweet & adorable bach. I'd definitely come again. Met all the basic requirements we needed and is well equipped. Glad it has no WiFi as it's a beautiful bach & spot to relax, unwind & so much more. Thank you very much Kirsty for being such a great & wonderful host - cheers for the kai moana too👌🏽😉

Kaimaumau

A beautiful spot who would have known. So glad it was the holidays with accommodation being so hard to get at such short notice but we were so lucky to secure this little hide away with such a terrific hostess by the name of Kirsty. Thank you so much for going to all the effort to make us feel so welcome and helping us out of an awkward predicament. Highly recommend not only the accommodation and facilities but wholeheartedly the best of hosts. Cheers Kirsty.
