Places to eat

The view couldn't be better while cooking up a storm at The Big Bach, but if you would prefer to eat out, there are plenty of excellent cuisine options in the Kapiti coast, many within walking distance to The Big Bach.

What our other guests had to say

Fantastic big spacious house with everything you need. Kelly is a friendly host, and was very accommodating with our large group of 30. The views to Kapiti Island were uninterrupted from the spa, or from the cozy fire in the lounge. Highly recommend booking big bach. You won't be disappointed

Anna

Our group of 5 families had another wonderful stay at the Big Bach - our fourth annual holiday group trip here. Always loads of space for all the adults and kids, wonderful beach access and extra large kitchen. We loved the new decor, games room and spa. Will definitely be back next summer!
