Boho Bach

Karaka Bay, Wellington-Wairarapa

Less than 10 minutes from Wellington airport and 20 minutes from the city centre, Boho Bach is a little oasis right in the middle of Karaka Bay, one of Wellington's most prestigious suburbs.

A steep winding bush path from a quiet suburban street takes you up, through the bush and opens out to a clearing with a little, old fashioned 1950s bach perched in prime position. Set on a rare 1.3 acres of land, and surrounded by native plantings, the bach is incredibly quiet and private given its suburban location.

The interior of the bach is quirky and full of personality. Touches of luxury, velvet and silk, are mixed with eclectic, colourful objects - creating a space that gives a true 'boho' vibe. 

Enjoy expansive views overlooking Wellington harbour from the bach. You'll see Makora Island, and out to the Orongorongo and Remutaka ranges - often with breath-taking sunrises and sunsets. Soak in the outdoor bath a few steps from the bach and watch the fantails flit and the colour change on the hills.

Whether you're from out-of-town visiting the sites of the city, or you're from Wellington, wanting to escape the rat race, Boho Bach is a truly unique experience - and a tonic for the soul.

  • Eating and Drinking

    Boho Bach is self-catering. Just bring your own food and drink, and cook meals using the facilities provided in your kitchen. You'll find all the cutlery, crockery, pots and pans that you'll need.

    If you want a break from cooking at any stage, Scorching Bay is 5 minutes walk away and has the famous Scorch O Rama cafe right across the road from the best swimming beach in Wellington. A 10-minute walk in the other direction takes you to Miramar with lots of top cafes and restaurants. 

    The Larder and Chocolate Fish Cafe come recommended for breakfast and lunch, and Oikos is a fantastic Greek restaurant for dinner. Park Road Kitchen and The Roxy are also great dining options.

    Miramar’s own craft brewery, Double Vision Brewing, is a 10-15minute walk and often has food trucks and live music to complement its local brews.

    You also have the option of Uber Eats!

  • Things to do

    Whether you're keen to enjoy hustle and bustle of Wellington City or escape from it, Boho Bach is the perfect inner-city stay.  

    A 5-minute walk will get you to Scorching Bay, the best swimming beach in Wellington and the Scorch O Rama cafe across the road is a great place to enjoy a coffee or brunch. A 10-20 minute walk in the other direction takes you to Miramar with the Weta Studio Tours, the Roxy cinema and many top eating places.

    A 20-minute drive will get you straight into the heart of Wellington City with its fantastic shopping, buzzing cafe scene and lively nightlife.

    Wellington is famous for the World of Wearable (WOW) Show every year in September/October and the Wellington International Arts Festival in March/April, but there is always plenty going in 'The Coolest Little Capital in the World'!

  • Your Hosts

    Boho Bach is owned by Kath Jones and Dave Long who have lived in the Karaka Bays area for 30 years and whose main house is just along from the bach at 16 Fortification Road.
