Kula Retreat Studio. A name that whispers of tranquility and escape. Perched above the dramatic black sands of Muriwai Beach on Auckland’s wild west coast, Bach 9, also known as Kula Retreat Studio, isn’t your typical Kiwi bach. Forget the image of a ramshackle cabin. This two-bedroom timber structure is a beacon of modern design, radiating warmth against the rugged landscape. Its bright interior is a stark contrast to the dark volcanic sands below. Imagine waking within its walls. Sunlight streams through expansive windows and skylights, illuminating the polished wood. The rhythmic roar of the surf below provides a constant, soothing soundtrack. As day gives way to night, the vast expanse of the sky unfolds above you, revealing a tapestry of stars. Bach 9 was recognized in 2022 by Bookabach as one of New Zealand’s top ten holiday homes. It earned its spot not just for its stylish design, but also for its embodiment of the true essence of a bach: bringing loved ones together under one roof. The wild beauty of Muriwai, with its powerful surf and windswept dunes, adds another layer to the experience. This is a place where you can truly reconnect with nature, feeling the invigorating sea breeze on your skin and the sand between your toes. It’s a world away from the hustle and bustle of city life. Bach 9 at Muriwai offers a unique blend of modern comfort and untamed natural beauty, creating an unforgettable escape.
