The Beachy Bach
Absolutely perfect for us. Get escape away from people and just super relaxing watching the ocean views. The Bach is the typical kiwi bach very easy to feel at home. We will definitely stay again if we can.

Studio on Petley.
David and Lynn are truly delightful! Their accommodations were the perfect place to stay in Tairua. With a warm welcome and a clean, well equipped guesthouse steps from the water we couldn’t have asked for more! We hope to return someday and will recommend their place to others. Thank you for blessing us with your kindness and little slice of New Zealand!

Hart Street Hideaway
How do you give a review you don’t want to give? Why?! Because if I write how spectacular Wendy’s place is, it’ll make it harder to book our return - Oh Yes! We’ll be back! The situation and setup was just bang on perfect for us and Wendy was super easy to deal with. Worth all of the 5-stars 👌😎

OHOPEBYTHESEA/NOCLEANINGFEE
We had a fantastic stay with our pup. Mark was a brilliant host and very accommodating. No issue for us but it is located on a busy road. However, the property is elevated and private and has off street parking. Also has a well fenced and maintained yard. Easy flat walk to restaurants, cafes, children’s playground and beach. Would love to come back again!

The Little Bach on Percy
It's always a pleasure to stay at Cj's place. The fact that I always try to book here while working in the area with my little dog Charlie, just shows how much we love it. Nothing has changed and we will be back soon! 🐶😃👍

Relaxing beach-front living.
A lovely, welcoming home, really well equipped, very comfortable. Communication was great from start to finish and every everything in the house had clear instructions which was very helpful. We will definitely stay again

The DogBox @ NZ’s favourite beach - Ohope Beach NZ
A great location a couple of minutes walk to the beach, with a responsive and accommodating host. The unit was tidy and it was amazing to have a full kitchen. Overall the dogbox is a great stay!

Cosy Cottage in Mount Maunganui
We had a wonderful 10 days in this cosy cottage in The Mount. Entry and exit were extremely easy and Antony was very helpful letting us enter a few hours earlier than the stated time. The cottage was very clean and well equipped, we were able to cook several meals including a BBQ. The location was amazing, it took 5 minutes to walk to the nearest beach and then 20 minutes along the boardwalk to get down to the main beach at the base of the Mount. The beaches are lovely, so clean with easy swimming conditions and plenty of surfing if wanted. There are lots of good restaurant choices all within easy walking distance. We ventured out and did some waterfall hikes and a visit to Rotorua to the thermal pools. Antony was super easy to communicate with and helped make our vacation very relaxing and enjoyable.

We loved the space, the pool and spa. The lift was a great help for us older ones. A great place to stay. Thank you.

Oceanside Retreat Mt Maunganui
Wonderful place to stay!

Short walk to Surf, Harbour, Mt Base Track & Cafes
Fantastic, clear instructions which included everything you needed to know. It's a great location and was perfect for us being close to our beach event and also close to shops/restaurants. The apartment itself was clean and comfortable. We were so grateful of the fans in the lounge and bedrooms!

Private beachfront home rentals

"Beach Bach"
Great stay, clean, everything you need and close to the beach.

Waihi Beach home is right on the beach
Excellent location, right on the beach and only a short walk to the shops. Wendy is a great host, communicating as soon as the booking was confirmed with essential information.

Beachfront Beauty- wake up to the waves!
Awesome place to stay. Right across the road from the beach. Lots of space for our two families with everything you could need provided. Really lovely AirBNB

Seaside Solitude
We had a lovely stay here. Peaceful but so entertaining for the children right on the park and across the road from the beach . A really lovely family holiday and so well equipped.

Luxury Beach Stay in Waiotahe.
We had the most wonderful stay at Aisling’s home! The house was perfectly situated, just a stone’s throw from the beach and only a short 6-8 minute drive to Opotiki township. The cleanliness was exceptional, and the house had everything we needed for a comfortable stay, making it feel like a true home away from home. The doors and windows leading out to the deck were a highlight, allowing the fresh air to flow through the home. The deck itself was perfect for relaxing, whether it was sipping morning coffee or enjoying dinner with family. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and there was an ample supply of bedding, which added an extra layer of comfort. The entire home exceeded my expectations, and my family thoroughly enjoyed our 2-week stay. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. Highly recommend Aisling’s home – it’s a true gem!

Luxurious Beachfront Sun Trap In The Clouds
Jolene’s beach house has unbelievably spectacular views. The house design and decor is straight out of a home decorating magazine. The huge deck gives perfect privacy and breathtaking sunsets and sunrises. The ocean was warm and wonderful for swimming . The house itself is incredibly well outfitted and Jolene made sure that we had everything, including coffee…. driving way out of her way to show up in the morning with a missing part for the machine. We were delighted with everything about this experience and only wished we could have stayed longer.

Pohutukawa's by the surf
Rob was a great host, super quick responses and opened the house to us earlier when their was no guests before us. House is very spacious and homey. Kid friendly and the beach right across the road. We will always look for robs place first when we come back to Waihi beach!

Beach oasis on Oceanview Rd
A fabulous little sanctuary so close to the beach. Unfortunately the weather wasn’t quite what we hoped, but that didn’t really matter as the place was so comfortable with great sofas a large Smart TV and fast Wi-Fi. The fully fenced garden made it a dream for our little fur baby, who loved zooming around the grass. The kitchen is well stocked with good quality pans and crockery and the plumbed fridge freezer with ice maker was great for G&T time! Really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend.
