Feb 19, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Bellbird Bach We loved our stay. The Bach was beautiful and conveniently located. We loved the ability to fully open the walls of doors and window - such a beautiful space. The bedrooms were comfortable and cozy. The hosts were friendly and very responsive. I highly recommend this home. ##### Samantha P. Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Daniel H. Apr 7, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### The Bellbird Bach is the Best! Lisa and Paul's bach is perfectly situated between the town/beach and the waterfall on the outskirts of Akaroa on the Banks Peninsula. With an easy walk (via a bridge over the stream) to everything Akaroa has to offer and a short drive to all of Banks, it couldn't be in a better location in the woods and amongst the song birds yet north-facing and receiving a ton of sunlight. And the house itself is gorgeous and fun, with everything you need, nothing you don't need, and the perfectly sized for a couple or even several people. We were lucky enough to stay here for an extended period of time and recommend the home -- and Lisa and Paul who will make sure you are well taken care of -- with the greatest possible enthusiasm. Stay here if you can! And take good care of the Bellbird Bach : ) ##### Daniel H. Stayed 16 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lisa N.
