Do not stay here Please do not stay here, dishonest host.There was no flat access for my 85 year old mother when the host said there was. The whole time we were there she had to climb up 2 very steep stairs so it was lucky that there was 2 of us to help her. The place was filthy dirty. There is a boxing gym attached to the so called bach, so i suspect it used to be the boxing club rooms. There is an unlocked door only to the boxing gym and the house. Its obvious that the toilet in the house would be shared by people doing boxing classes on mondays and wednesday nights which then gives them full access to the house. We had no wifi, hence my elderly mother could not watch tv nor could we use our phones. The beds were uncomfortable and 2 of the duvees had stains on them. The bathroom was appalling, dirty shower tray, bits of mat thrown over dirty floors. The toilet is stained. We couldnt open the windows in our room as a botched paint job has been done through the place and glued the windows shut. One of the bedrooms has no door handle and all the doors in the house and the 'Toilet' and 'No Exit' signs make it clear that this place was once a club room. The balcony out the back was covered in bird pooh so we had to wear our shoes. You wouldnt sit on the outside chairs because you would fall through them and with a big drop over the balcony with a low wall it would be very unsafe for small children. Honestly there was lots more wrong. I have submitted a complaint to Book a Bach.

Opunake Gem Barbwire Bach has everything you need to enjoy its location with the added bonus of having access to their boxing gym. The kids absolutely loved it. Overlooking Opunake Lake and with the beach an enjoyable 3 minute walk away - or longer if the kids want to climb the pohutukawa trees and play on the playground, I have no hesitation in recommending Barbwire Bach and hope to stay again.
