Cottage vacation rentals in Auckland

Great family stay for three generations. Local beaches are close by and all amenities you could need are not far by car. Shops for essentials are within easy walking distance. Something to do in all weathers

We can't speak highly enough about the place. It's a little haven where the atmosphere and surroundings almost force you to kick back and forget about [almost] everything and just enjoy. The surrounding areas compliment the accommodations, and the local people reflect the laid-back approach to life. With pristine beaches, great food from the local cafes and restaurants through to the weekend markets there is something for everyone here.

I promise you will not regret your stay here. My husband and I stayed here during the first part of our honeymoon & it exceeded all expectations. Sarah is an excellent host and the area is truly breathtaking. When we first pulled up, it looked like one of the cows was waiting for us :) There was fresh milk & muffins waiting on us when we got there in addition to a personalized sign for our honeymoon. The house is intentionally decorated with a nice minimalist/boho vibe. 10/10 recommend!

Such a beautiful home 'away from home' 😊 very cosy, clean and charming. Anything you would need has been thought of. Wonderful surroundings, private and peaceful. So tastefully put together. Thank you so much for sharing your gorgeous place with us ☺️

Perfect spot for a relaxing wekend with friends. We loved how close it was to the beach and the bikes made it so easy to get around Omaha. Kate was super helpful and accommodating.

We had stayed at Linda's lovely cottage twice previously and it was great to be back again. Such a stylish comfortable cottage in a lovely peaceful location with a great outlook. Linda is an excellent host and we always feel very welcome.

What an exquisite and inspiring view of Bethells Beach! The view from the deck was amazing. The cottage was very quiet and peaceful. John was an excellent host. We enjoyed walking the beach and hiking to Lake Waimanu past the huge dunes.

Wonderful location on Waiheke Island with beautiful views and great outdoor amenities. Walkable to restaurants and stores. The house itself was comfortable and well stocked. Brad left a nice bottle of wine. We did let Brad know that the house did not seem to have been professionally cleaned before we arrived. We didn’t let that ruin our trip and still had a great time on the island.

The main purpose for this trip was to help with our daughter's move to Auckland. From that, we were looking for somewhere convenient to her new place that we could use as a home base. Barbara's place was that, and more! True to the pictures, it's a lovely wee cottage with gorgeous views. Despite being in the city, the cottage is pleasantly private, looking into bush, with the bay beyond, and quiet. Moreover, the Coastal Track is just up -- or down -- the road, providing opportunities for bush walks, while restaurants and shops are also nearby and handy. We'd happily stay again on our next visit to Auckland -

Fantastic views and space for the price! This is perfect for all types of occasions with a group of family or friends. The host was responsive and we were given clear instructions on everything regarding to the house, check in, directions, recycling, etc! Highly recommended!

Such a peaceful location in lovely surroundings. The bed was very comfortable and the cottage cosy. Jasmijn was a great host and very welcoming and friendly. Matt’s whitebait fritters were to die for and the whole experience was relaxing and a good way to recharge one’s batteries.

Our sailing team of students and adults stayed at this beach house. Everything was as we expected and everyone enjoyed their stay! Thanks for always being so resposive and communictaive. Much appreciated! We would highly recommend this beach house!

Dean’s space is absolutely stunning. His kitchen is stocked and loaded better than my own at home. Communication was great when he was gonna be on the property and such. Also, his food recommendations were to die for. Thanks bunches, Dean!

Alysn was great very helpful instructions for getting to the house. Such a beautiful house and location, wish we could have stayed longer.

Apart from the must do Coromandel cove (particularité in the early morning), don't miss the hike to TE PA historique réservé which is not far away from the bnb.

Great location, very quiet, peaceful, had everything we needed. We enjoyed sitting on the front patio and watching the sun set and birds and even a couple bunnies. House was very quiet and a great size for our family of three.

Overall we had an awesome time staying at your cottage - our girls really enjoyed the pool and we appreciated the lovely community you live in - Managawhai is truly Magical in our books … Thank You!!

A beautiful stay amongst nature. I appreciated the little set up. Loved the afternoon/evenings with the sun shining in. A recommended stay! Note - not all cooking facilities present but enjoyed exploring the local eateries over dinner whilst watching the sun set.

Was a great location! A close and easy walk to the beach. Very clean and comfortable place. A quick drive to downtown Auckland but a nice peaceful distance from the big city. It was perfect! I would highly recommend staying here!

Loved this place. Heather very friendly and helpful, very comfortable, great outdoors dining area, quiet garden setting

Very cute and spacious cottage. The place was well lit, clean and had pretty much everything we needed to cook a decent dinner in the kitchen. Bridget was always responsive and helpful. Wished we could stay a bit longer.

Great location, and very clean and modern. Would have loved to have stayed longer. John was a great communicator and very responsive.

loved our stay at this cosy and clean cottage. peaceful and private surroundings, Bridget was easy to communicate with. looking forward to staying again soon.

Simple, clean, great location. It was a great place for our family to walk to the beach, grab essentials from Woolworths, and enjoy coffee and takeaways from local restaurants. The hosts are very responsive to messages and proactively sent information. We really appreciated the simple, reasonable requests upon checkout that treated us like adults.
