Raglan West Retro Beach Vibe Accommodation

The warm serene ambience of a home nestled in a culture de sac with a panoramic view of Karioi Maunga on the West side of Whaingaroa.

Wonderfully eclectic property with everything we needed and more. Only issue we had was the shower run out of hot water once for some unknown reason.

A very relaxing place with good position and great views. Loved the fire place and the atmosphere.

Fun funky accommodation with an indoor/outdoor design. The owner went out of her way to make us feel like friends while respecting our privacy. The place has a very relaxing vibe. Use of their paddle boards was a nice bonus.

There was only one small issue we noted. The sleeping trailer smelt a musty.

Everything. Amazing groovy raglan style accom.

Our host met us.., we had a delayed flight from Canada and she was so helpful, friendly and we couldn’t have asked for a nicer place to stay. Everything you need, advice on places to visit.The accommodation was just what the description said…. Turn back time to surfing and the beach in a more laid back time and that was the decor. We loved it.

This is the best place we have ever stayed at. There is nothing we did not like about this kool little hide away. Such a cute and cosy place with everything you need. Jaqualine has got to be the best host we have ever met. Loved how she greeted us and made us feel at home. She really does go out of her way for her guests! Who even does that these days!! Thankyou Jaqualine for sharing your amazing home with us😃

Loved everything about this place. Jaqualine is really amazing!

A well presented retro-styled place. Close enough to town without being in traffic and bustle. Jacqueline, the host, was great and has provided everything for a comfortable stay.

We absolutely loved staying in this gorgeous quaint wee place. The wonderful hippy vibe relaxed you immediately which was the whole purpose of our getaway. We are recommending it to lots of friends who need an escape from the busyness of life. Everything about it is decorated with careful consideration, quirkiness and fun to add to your comfort and relaxation. You can really feel the love. Thank you so much Jacqueline :-)

The accommodation was awesome comfortable clean and welcoming. The host was very pleasant and also welcoming. It was quiet, and the view from the deck was relaxing and beautiful. Short drive into town. Would recommend this place to family and friends.

The three nights we were there was not long enough. There isn't anything not to like.

The character accommodation; the fact that the owner made the effort to welcome us. the full facilities - stove, oven, dishwasher.

Did find the caravan bed a little cramped - but all part of the vibe.

Loved the style and little extras that were thought about

Interesting retro place.

Would be great in Summer!

First the welcoming feeling of the whole place. Secondly, the extra special touches from the owners. Everything was thought out but didn't feel staged. Just wonderful!

Nothing to dislike.

a very quirky property certainly beachy - had a real beach holiday feel.

We are an older couple with some mobility issues - for us trips to the loo at night was bit like camping (a little challenging).

The ambiance was exactly what I was looking for is a surf town. You feel like a local staying there and the host could not have been more accommodating. It was hard leaving and going to my next destination.

This place was amazing - feels like walking into a hippie hostel somewhere tropical but it's all for you. I'd definitely stay again and recommend!

Loved everything about the place. Very unique and had everything we needed and more. Jacqueline was a very welcoming and hospitable host. I’d recommend the place to anyone.

Absolutely the best accommodation I have ever stayed at. Only thing that could improve it would be a sea view but since the harbour was 10 steps away we had to lever ourselves out of the range of comfy chairs and wander down to it. Interesting, quirky, fun, relaxing, and supplied with everything you could desire to make it even more comfortable than home. Lovely and quiet and close to all the attractions of Raglan. Jacqueline is a superb host and went to a lot of effort to ensure we were comfortable - and we were. Highly recommended for anyone who prefers a bach to a bland hotel room.

Nothing - it was perfect. Even the weather improved!

The personal touches were amazing, a very friendly host who greeted us on arrival. Very quirky and comfortable, definitely has a great vibe. Everything we needed for an enjoyable stay was provided. Excellent facilities and perfect location. The showers were fantastic too! We loved everything about this place would definitely recommend and stay again.

There wasn't anything we could find fault with.

Breakfast was adjusted for one guest (vegan).

The warm welcome we received upon our very late arrival by our host Jacqueline. Great location very close to everything The food provided for breakfast was great We found the overall retro experience outstanding and would highly recommend it over a motel accommodation.

There was nothing there not to like.

We loved the concept of using caravans for sleeping and having the house separate for kitchen and lounging. Plus the decor is so beautifully done and has such a nice vibe to it. Plus we got to use the kayaks which was an added advantage. The house is only a short walk away from the town and a couple of minutes walk to the harbour.

I couldn't point out to anything that I didn't like.
