Dec 23, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Graham was a perfect and attentive host. From booking to check in he was helpful and friendly. He genuinely wanted us to enjoy his house and what Mangawhai had to offer. It was easy to communicate with him whenever we needed to. The house is a quintessential kiwi Bach, fuss free, comfortable with everything you need and nothing more so you don’t have to worry about too much while you’re away. The Bach was previously a family home for 30 years and you get the family homely vibe there. Perfect place for a couple of family groups together. Ample space and play areas for children and adults alike. ##### Lauren R.
