Our Home away from home in Tauranga
We travel to Tauranga regularly and this is the only place we would stay. We love the peace and quiet of being in the country and yet still being handy to all of the amenities of Tauranga. The host are very welcoming and go out of their way to make your stay enjoyable. We travel with our small dog and she also enjoys her time in the country.

A perfect country oasis
We returned to this bach (it's really a full size house) as we had previously enjoyed our stay here. The on site hosts go out of their way to ensure that you have everything that you need and go the extra mile to ensure your comfort. As an example we arrived on a cold winter's night and the lights were turned on, the blinds/curtains drawn and the heatpump on. After a busy and cold day it was nice to walk into such an inviting environment. It was also a nice change to wake up the next day to the absolute peace and quiet of the country. As a bonus we were also able to have our fur baby stay with us. We would highly recommend this bach to anyone looking for somewhere to stay in the Tauranga region.

We had a wonderful stay here on the weekend. The property was very clean and tidy. Rita was a lovely host and she helped us with our puppy too. We wish we could have stayed longer. Such a peaceful, lovely place to stay at. I can highly recommend this place. I think we'll be back :)

Great value family accommodation
A very tidy accommodation option, perfect for a family stay. Only a couple of suggestions - the lack of/limited internet was a bit of a problem (especially with teenagers), as it was difficult to look up info about Mt Maungonui and Tauranga! Would be great to also have some brochures/tourist maps of the area for us visitors 😅. The beautiful big tv and access to Netflix was a real bonus, but only worked on the first night due to internet drop-out. Not a huge issue, but probably something that might put off some visitors. Thanks very much for your friendly welcome and lovely hospitality!

Owner went above and beyond
The house was well laid-out and the owner included some extras, like milk, bread, and some delicious pears grown on the property. Location is a bit out of the way, but very serene. Only complaint was that the hot water ran out very quickly. Showers were an adventure.

Fantastic Stay
We are well traveled Kiwis, and we previously owned an B&B ourselves. We booked the stay because we visited family who lives in the area. That said, Gary and Rita catered for all our needs. The spacious house had everything we needed, for young and old. We loved the peacefulness and the park like surroundings. We could cook a family meal in the fully equipped kitchen and enjoy family time together at the amazing waterfall nearby. Gary sent us off with a bag of figs from the garden. We will definitely book at the Pukeko Inn again. Kindly. Frederick and Annemarie
