Cast your vote for best Bach

Sharron Pardoe Reporter from The Wellingtonian

Voting has opened for the annual Bookabach Bach of the Year Awards, and the holiday rental site has revealed that Kiwis are most likely to seek out holiday rentals that are a little bit different to the norm.

According to a nationwide survey, nearly half the population (42 per cent) are likely to select a bach with unique charm over a classic retro bach (23 per cent) or a modern bach (14 per cent), alongside other important considerations such as price, location and a bach owner that’s helpful and easy to communicate with.

Forty holiday homes from every corner of New Zealand are in the running to be crowned Bookabach’s Bach of the Year. Kiwis are being encouraged to vote for their favourite bach in each of the categories (Best Setting, Hospitality, Child Friendly, Pet Friendly, Eco Friendly, Design, Charm, Urban) at www.bachoftheyear.co.nz....

Gold, Silver and Bronze award winners in each of the eight categories will be selected by public vote and revealed over Labour Weekend.
