A bach of fun on a budget in Whitianga

Your holiday world

Your bach is surrounded by a batch of fun. In fact, you’re at the heart of Whitianga and perfectly poised to explore the diverse natural and cultural treasures the Coromandel Peninsula offers.

Whitianga is also the main town in Mercury Bay. Back in the 1800s, it was a timber port and ships from all over Europe once sailed there to load an iconic Kiwi tree, the kauri.

Now tourists and locals flock to Whitianga for something far less wooden: a vibrant beachside town full of friendly people and loads of entertainment.

Your holiday home

Nope, bach isn’t a typo. In New Zealand a bach is a small holiday home or beach house and they’re an iconic part of the country’s history and culture. They’re also a pretty funky and affordable way to enjoy an all-action beach holiday without breaking the bank.

This bach is definitely funky with refreshingly eclectic décor and lots of windows to bathe your holiday world in natural light. There’s a cosy living and dining area with a smart TV, a spacious and well-equipped kitchen, and three very roomy bedrooms (plus sleep-out) furnished and decorated with care and flair.

And it might be a bach, but the beds are big – the bach has two kings and a queen, and the sleep-out has a queen and two singles.

It’s a calm place, a happy place and, best of all; it’s in Whitianga and close to everything – beaches, cafes, bars and bush
