Right on the beach at secluded Rings Beach

This recently renovated bach is situated directly across the road from the white sandy beach of this beautiful little bay, that contains around 30 houses, and is located between Kuaotunu and Matarangi beaches. Sleeps up to 10.

One of the best features is the HUGE new entertaining deck leading onto the large open lawn (with a hedge at the front screening the small access road that runs in front of the beach).

Guests also have access to a caravan behind the bach, which sleeps 2 in a double bed.

Inside the bach there are new beds in both bedrooms (including a pocket spring Queen size in each). Two spare mattresses are stored under one of the beds for additional guests. The open plan kitchen/dining/lounge area includes a 5-seater L-shaped couch, 2x armchairs, coffee table and a bookcase with a selection of books, magazines and games. There is an LCD TV with Xbox 360 and games, that also plays the large selection of DVDs. There is a 6 seat dining suite for family meals.

The kitchen is fully equipped with a standard oven/stove, full sized fridge/freezer plus a smaller drinks fridge, microwave, coffee machine (bring your own Nespresso pods and milk) toaster, kettle, blender and plenty of crockery, glassware, pots and pans.

The beach is a surf beach (east coast, north facing) and depending on the swell can get very good waves at and around low tide. At high tide, the waves break on the shore and is suitable for skim boarding on the sand, or swimming if you prefer no waves.

There is good fishing from the rocks at either end of the beach, or surf-casting at high tide.
Special conditions:
- Smoking allowed outside only.
- Pets allowed with prior approval.

NOTE: Under Kiwi bach tradition you are expected to: Clean the house and do the dishes before you leave; Bring your own linen (towels, sheets, pillowcases). There are pillows and blankets on all the beds.
Make yourself comfortable in this vacation home, featuring a kitchen with a full-sized refrigerator/freezer and an oven. There's a private patio. A Smart television along with a DVD player are provided for your entertainment. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
This smoke-free vacation home features a stereo, books, and a playground. Amenities and recreational activities include games, snorkeling nearby, and surfing/body boarding nearby.
Guests will find features like onsite parking.

Family summer break

A quintessential bach from my childhood. Clean, tidy and everything that you need. Lovely to spend time with our children and grandchild, simply enjoying the beach, swimming, fishing and meals around the big outdoor table. Rings Beach is an unspoiled, unpretentious, slice of New Zealand. May it long stay that way.

Alright stay

The property had the basic necessities we needed and was in a great location. However the oven didn’t work (stovetop was fine) and the cleanliness of the property was a let down considering there is a cleaning fee charged when booking. Also bring antihistamines if you are prone to hayfever.

Perfect place to relax

This is the perfect Bach in an amazing location. Rings Beach is idyllic. Really well equipped and comfortable. Deck area was awesome for shade on really hot days and meant we could still sit out when warm but raining.

Rings beach stay

We stayed for a week and will certainly stay again. No major issues only they appear to lack cleaners. We did the best we could but this did not distract from the overall stay. Good neighbours everyone seemed to know each other. Overall a lovely area and to be recommended.

Christmas stay

Great location across road from beach - access is via a restricted access shingle road for short distance, we thought we had gone too far! House was a little untidy but we had a fantastic stay, with the shared section to ourselves. ☺️

Cozy Getaway

The bach itself was nice and cozy, nice new deck built out the front. Awesome location. Wouldn't recommend staying in the caravans in winter though. Heaps of DVDs and games for a rainy day, the Xbox was fun too. Only thing is that if you're going in winter don't park where the listing says to park. We got stuck in the mud lol

Nice wee spot

Typical bach - nothing fancy but good facilities, great location by a safe, quiet beach. Heaps of games etc. for when the sun was too hot. The section did become pretty crowded with host's wider family over the weekend we were there. Nice people who didn't get in the way, but some of the privacy was lost. Had a great time and I'd love to go back

Over all the property was as advertised.we had a good nights stay.However all the 3pin plugs in the kitchen and lounge were not working may have just been fused but we didn't want to mess around with them.Also the carpet tiles in the lounge and dining area are in need of a clean.Otherwise a nice property a real kiwis batch.

Post lockdown getaway

A much needed getaway after lockdown with friends at cute little place in a beautiful location. We went and caught some fish for dinner, and discovered a short bush walk up the road we walked one night in the hope to spot some kiwi. We’ll definitely be back!
