Clean and tidy and exactly as expected

Great stay

From the start, communication with Barb was super speedy. She was responsive to any questions we had. The bach was just as advertised and just what we were looking for. The kitchen was very well equipped. Modern appliances. We appreciated the dishwasher. Clothes storage was good. The bed was very comfortable. The pool was great. The covered deck was appreciated because of the rain we had but also as protection from the sun. The location was good, ten minutes or less to restaurants, groceries, and anything else we might have needed. While we were there, Bard did check in with us to make sure we had everything we needed. The bach is located in a condo community and the other owners were friendly and helpful in the five weeks we were there. It's a very relaxing, quiet atmosphere. The location of Barb's bach is well located to allow people who want to explore the North Island. We would highly recommend Barb's bach.

Unfortunately, they use Vrbo for bookings and the communication is awful. The reservation link was broken and we got no info about how to access the property. The place clearly hadn’t been cleaned well, as there was rubbish in the bins and stuff left from prior tenants. Also, the ad didn’t state it was in a trailer park or even what the unit number was. We had to find it using the photo only! I certainly would not recommend the unit.
