Fragrance for a Bach, Holiday Home or Airbnb in New Zealand
SOSA · Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch
A welcome guests remember in New Zealand
Baches and holiday homes are a Kiwi tradition, and short-stay rentals now fill city apartments too.

The short answer
Scent the space guests walk into first. In a bach, holiday home or Airbnb, that is usually the living area: Vaayu if it is one large connected room, Pawan if it is compact. Keep the intensity light, set the schedule at the property, and check the oil at every changeover.
Your plan
Step by step
- The arrival room. Scent the living area guests enter first; bedrooms only if you choose.
- Keep it light. Guests vary, so a soft, clean scent at a low setting suits most.
- Set the schedule on site. Set the run window in the SOSA app while you are at the property.
- Check at changeover. Look at the oil level and wipe the machine as part of the turnover routine.
- Tell guests. Add a line to the house manual on what it is and how to switch it off.
In New Zealand
What changes in New Zealand
Closed in winter
New Zealand homes are usually heated and closed in winter and opened up in summer, so fragrance works best in the rooms you keep closed.
The bach
A bach is often one main open room for living, kitchen and dining, opened up in summer.
Delivery and plugs
Orders to New Zealand usually arrive in about a week. Sockets in New Zealand are Type I, so Pawan, which plugs straight into the wall, usually needs a plug adapter. Ask us which one before you order.

Questions
Before you choose
Will guests find it too strong?
Not at a low setting on a schedule. Your house manual can tell guests how to switch it off if they prefer.
Can I leave it at the bach between visits?
Yes. Switch it off while the bach is empty, and set the schedule again when you are next there.
Do you deliver to New Zealand?
Yes. Orders to New Zealand usually arrive in about a week. Sockets in New Zealand are Type I, so Pawan, which plugs straight into the wall, usually needs a plug adapter. Ask us which one before you order.
What should I send you for a recommendation?
A floor plan or rough sketch, the size of each room, ceiling height, which doors stay closed, where the sockets are, the hours the space is used and the scents you like. Photos help too.
Not sure which one?
