Staying at an iconic Kiwi bach (or holiday home) is a tradition that Kiwis on holiday have enjoyed for generations. A bach in Waitakere offers the perfect form of self-catering accommodation for a family holiday or a getaway with your friends. The range of baches available throughout the country is staggering. Chose from a classic bach; a small dwelling with limited facilities, or move up the range to a moderate-size, comfortable home with all of the essentials. Finally, at the upper end of the scale are the architecturally designed holiday homes, with expensive furnishings and extra bonuses such as swimming or spa pools. Baches are usually available for hire per night or weekly, and are popular options for summer holidays, so make sure to book well in advance.

Waitakere: Three major landscape features dominate Waitakere City – the forested Waitakere Ranges with more than 250km of walking and hiking tracks leading to giant kauri trees, waterfalls, beaches and huge views, the rugged west coast and the calm waters of the inner Waitemata and Manukau Harbours. Henderson is the hub of Waitakere City; with the opening of an aquatic centre and sports stadium, two cinema complexes and two large shopping malls, it offers recreational opportunities for everyone. You will enjoy visiting art galleries, craft shops and cafes in Titirangi Village, before travelling to the black-sand surf beaches of Whatipu, Karekare, Anawhata, Piha and Bethells that are wild and stunning. The Arataki Visitor Centre at the Titirangi end of Scenic Drive gives an introduction to New Zealand’s native forest ecosystems. There are several vineyards in the Waitakere area; most welcome visitors for tasting sessions and cellar-door sales. If you are staying in Waitakere City and require accommodation, you can choose from a luxury rainforest retreat, motor inn and self-catering motels, some with family rooms. Accommodation is available in New Lynn, Avondale, Henderson and West Harbour, including a motor park with budget accommodation, caravans and campsites.
