👋 About the Hosts Hi, we’re Jenna and Mickayla — long-time locals and founders of BayStays, a boutique holiday accommodation service based in stunning Golden Bay. We’re passionate about sharing the best of our backyard with guests from all over. From hidden swimming spots to the best flat whites in town, we love helping people discover the magic of this region — whether you’re here for a peaceful retreat, a beachy adventure, or quality time with family and friends. With backgrounds in property management and hospitality, we take pride in offering clean, stylish, and well-equipped holiday homes, along with responsive communication and thoughtful local recommendations. We’re just a message away if you need anything during your stay. We can’t wait to welcome you to Golden Bay!

Perched above Pōhara with panoramic sea views, Vista al mar is a newly built, design-forward holiday home with showstopping views over Golden Bay. Inside, you’ll find a relaxed open-plan layout with comfy lounges, Smart TV, and fast WiFi. Large sliding doors open to a sun-drenched deck, perfect for BBQs and evening drinks. Two bedrooms sleep four, and there’s an optional separate sleepout with a king bed for added space or privacy. Guests are welcome to bring their own linen. If you'd prefer to do so, just let us know and we’ll refund any automatic linen hire fees that may have been applied.

Located just 4 minutes from Pōhara Beach, you’re close to local cafés, the general store, and the Pōhara Boat Club. This is a peaceful, elevated spot that feels private yet still connected to everything Golden Bay has to offer.
