Vakantiewoningen in een bus in Oceanië

We loved Bertha! Had a fantastic stay, stunning spot and surrounds, so peaceful and beautiful, our little cow neighbours were the best! So nice and friendly and they even liked our dogs. Our dogs also had the best time it was excellent to be able to take them. The bus was so quirky and cute, like glamping and as expected for a vintage bus that there will still be bugs etc but was definitely kept clean and perfectly stocked for everything we needed. Would definitely stay again, thank you Maria and Ben

There was much excitement pulling up to the Bus itself. Even from the outside, we knew it would be good. It turned out to be better, it was amazing!! What an experience! Every little nook and cranny of this place has been thought about. Great workmanship on the woodwork in the bus. It had all you would need. We were a family of 4 - 2 adults and 2 kids - and we were very comfortable. You would think that it would be a squeeze but it’s like a tardus in there. You actually couldn’t tell u were in a bus once ur in it. Kids loved the outdoor space too. It was truly a unique experience and check out at 11am was an unexpected bonus! Got to enjoy it for that bit longer :)

This was a superb choice for our Easter Weekend getaway. Super private, cosy space, beautiful surroundings... just bliss! We felt so fortunate to be able to join in a group woodfire pizza dinner too. 100% recommend to anyone wanting a peaceful escape for a while. Will definitely be back!

Fantastic stay and definitely want to stay in the Treehouse next time for a couple of days. The scented sauna was a superb experience, and overall, really loved the property, views and off-grid experience away from phones and emails. 10 stars. ☺️

Paisible retraite dans le Bus Rouge, aux portes de la péninsule de Banks. L’espace est très agréable et cosy, un « nid » dans lequel je me suis tout de suite sentie chez moi. J’ai apprécié le soin apporté à la décoration mais aussi les nombreuses choses utiles et agréables telles que fourneau pour un vrai feu de bois, bouillotte, grand lit, couvertures de réserve, jeux, produits ménagers écologiques, vaisselle, huile, thé, etc. La communication avec Arielle a été très fluide. Merci 🌺

We had a great stay at Kookaburra retreat. So peaceful and relaxing. The retreat has a rustic charm and is in a great spot for walking. Melita is a great host. Clear communication and very responsive to messages. We can’t wait to go back!

We had the most wonderful weekend away. Maria was very quick to respond to any of our questions and had some great local suggestions. We look forward to our next visit. Thanks for hosting us 😊

It's a beautiful place , it's look better in real than in the photos and it's spacious, try to live in a bus as its wonderful, the reason we stay longer and most is the host is awesome, very attentive and responsive , just my net Is low the reason I can't receive messages immediately but place are comfortable, clean, crispy lennin, outside shower is amazing, hear the kokabarra tweet every afternoon, Lynne did a great job about this place because it's safe and private with fence, highly recommended, we will stay again for sure, try it , try the tablelands weather its perfect which 25 degrees mostly everyday and we are in the middle of summer, to the host thumbs up, a great lady host with her million dollar smile or worth more and I want to show my relatives about this place and book ahead for Xmas , also 15 to 20 minutes by walk, maybe shorter with others as I have short legs lol to the town for groceries and pub and coffee shop, tourist spot like d heritage village nearby

The bus is a beautiful place to stay, we had sweeping views of an incoming storm, a nice fire in the evening. Beautiful property for some time alone, away from the hustle and bustle of regular life. We loved the bath tub with the view of the forest.

We had such a beautiful weekend. Samantha and Steven did an incredible job designing and creating a cozy, well-equipped space with everything you could need. We loved everything about our little weekend getaway. Thank you for sharing Benny the Bus, it was such a special experience!

Our stay was wonderful! The peaceful location gave us precious family reconnection time while the converted bus added an extra element of adventure! Our boys loved toasting marshmallows by the fire each evening. The tree swing was another favourite! Our hosts, Merridy and Warren were fantastic - greeting us warmly on arrival, providing helpful local tips, and ensuring we had everything we needed throughout our stay. We'll definitely be back!​​​​​

Unique but great experience and Liza is a fantastic host. For those looking to find a more sociable, environmental / down to earth experience, this place is for you.

We stayed at Bus 1 and we were a little worried whether it will be too tight or not. But it had everything we needed, two small fridges to fit all our foods, enough fresh linen and towels for a family of 4. It was a different experience for us. There is a kitchen right outside our bus which has most of the appliances. There are no stoves but we have seen people bringing their electric stove or portable stove. There is laundry room as well but we didn’t need to use it. All in all, they have everything you need and if you have any questions, just reach out. The front desk was very helpful. We were struggling to open the door and they helped us straight away. I would definitely recommend this to my friends and family.

My stay in Evi the bus has been nothing other than extremely pleasant. Andrea and her husband John are very kind, welcoming people and their dog Bruno is a real sweetheart. The bus itself is very comfortable and precisely like the pictures represent. The location is perfect for exploring the area (Waitangi, Russell, Paihia) and even for making a trip towards Cape Reinga. The hospitality has been heartwarming and even late at night when I was in need of some help, Andrea came over to assist me. Plus, she even gave me a nature lesson with some very interesting facts about the nightlife and the sounds we could hear outside. Hearing a Kiwi-sound, a Morepork owl and seeing the galaxy extremely clearly from right outside the bus has been an amazing extra. Thanks again for the wonderful few days!

A lovely off grid bus experience in the bush. Loved listening to dusk and dawn in the bush. It had everything I needed for an overnight stay. Other facilities being bathroom and kitchen are in the main house which wasn’t too far away. There’s a little fridge in the bus with portable aircon which was handy. Thanks

Worth every penny. Beautiful location. My family stay comfortably in the bus although there were 6 of us. The staff was friendly on site. Only suggestion I have is it would have been great to have additional lights near the main bedroom.

Eine sehr coole Idee, und auch sehr gut umgesetzt! Es war mal was völlig anderes, und hat für eine Nacht Mal eine neue Erfahrung gebracht! Das Badezimmer war makellos, und die Betten waren gemütlich! Es gab eine grosse Aussenanlage zum Kochen, was wir für uns allein hatten 😊 Das einzig Blöde war dass, als wir beide Heizungen anhatten, die Sicherung rausgeflogen ist, aber die wollen das beheben. Wir würden auf jeden Fall gern wiederkommen!!
