But there is something nostalgic and quintessentially Kiwi in purchasing an established family beach spot to holiday year after year. PAUL MCCREDIE/NZIA These days there are so many baches for rent online that buying one isn't everyone's cup of tea. As with buying a family home, one of the most important factors when buying a bach was location. Holiday Houses spokesman Aaron Clancy said Queenstown was the most popular holiday spot with about 116,000 searches for baches in the area in the last three months alone. Bach buyers need to work out when the popular peak season is and whether the rental return over that time could cover the costs of the bach over the whole year.
