Mangawhai moves up Bookabach rankings

Mangawhai has moved up four spots, from seventh last year, to sit as the third most popular bach holiday destination according to statistics just released today by holiday home booking website Bookabach.

Whangamata has cemented its position as the top summer holiday hotspot for Kiwis, coming out as the most popular destination in New Zealand for the fifth year running,

Bookabach CEO Peter Miles says the fact that average rental prices for the top ten destinations has increased by 5% to $326 per night shows that bach owners are still getting a great return on investment from renting out their properties during the peak summer period.

Luxury getaways in Queenstown and Waiheke Island’s Onetangi and Oneroa areas remained high on the agenda for many Kiwis, and renters were willing to pay an average nightly rental of $440 or above to secure a spot in these sought after locations.

Mangawhai’s average night charge has increased from $273 last summer to $291 this peak period.

“Despite the increases, staying at a bach is still an economical option compared to an overseas holiday,” says Miles.

Lake Wanaka retained its number two position on the top ten list, while Whitianga, Taupo Central, Raglan and Oneroa all slipped one spot compared to last year.

The rankings are based on the total number of nights booked via Bookabach.co.nz between 1 December 2012 and 11 January 2013.

 
Bookabach top ten summer destinations are: 1. Whangamata, 2. Lake Wanaka, 3. Mangawhai Heads, 4. Whitianga, 5. Mt Maunganui, 6. Taupo Central, 7. Raglan, 8. Queenstown, 9. Onetangi, Waiheke, 10. Oneroa, Waiheke.
