Vacation home rentals in Te Ika-a-Māui / North Island

We had an excellent stay with no issues. Debbie and Peter were great hosts - we were out at the motor racing during the day and we came back to a laid fire ready to go. Very easy communication and such a hassle free place to stay for a large group. Ideal for a large group of people if you want to just stay a bit out of the main Rotorua and Taupo destinations - close enough to go for dinner, relaxing and quiet otherwise. Would definitely look at staying again for future events in Taupo and Rotorua.

What a wonderful place, in the heart of Taupo with an amazing view of the lake. The house is beautiful, so well laid out, amenities are fantastic and perfect for a family or couple. Vicky communicated often and was very helpful when we left something behind, thank you. Amazing value for money. Would thoroughly recommend. :-)

Fantastic venue in Tairua, so close to the shops and eustary, we'll be staying again, and the house is fitted with everything you need to make your stay fantastic.

A gem of a spot! Stunning views & surroundings. We loved Cable Bay & our air bnb was Devine. We’ll definitely return to watch sunset on the deck.

Awesome Kiwi Bach as described - heaps of outdoor space for the kids to rip in. Hosts were really accommodating around check-in / easy to communicate with. The 12pm check out made moving out a lot less hectic too - a real bonus. Thanks for having us.

Great stay at James house. Beautiful view. Plenty of sleeping arrangements.

Susan’s place was absolutely perfect for us. The location and beautiful, peaceful gardens surrounding the apartment were just stunning. We had the most amazing time and plenty of much needed rest. Thank you so much Susan. We have recommended Nikau apartments to all our friends and family.

A little paradise that was created here! On our trip around the world, we more than enjoyed a little break from our "big break" here in this little oasis of peace and relaxation! Simply fantastically beautiful – the view, the nature, the birdlife, sunrises and sunsets, the starry sky – just everything. And everything you need - including the outdoor bathtub, the outdoor shower and the "toilet with a view"! What you could see as a comfort restriction at first, we found to be a fun factor!!! Out at night (must) - and at the same time "discover" a wonderful starry sky with the Milky Way - just fantastic!!!! Thank you Paul for three wonderful days!

A lovely place to stay. Easy walk to the beach. Very comfortable and a lovely place to relax and chill out surrounded by birdsong.

Comfortable, clean, quiet. They're home is beautiful and comfortable. The whole family felt right at home.

We had a wonderful stay at Anna's Studio. Both, Anna and Matt were very welcoming and friendly. The Studio is very conveniently located to access wineries. The surrounding of the studio is like a natural sanctuary with all the trees, bushes, flowers and the river in the back. The two super friendly dogs and Momo the cat were a highlight of our stay in this peaceful & serene studio.

Have stayed at this property a number of times and always look at its availability when planning to visit New Plymouth

The cottage was stellar. It was hard at times to wrest ourselves away to do the things we planned for the trip.

What a beautiful place! The apartment was perfect. Well equipped, very spacious, immaculate and very comfortable. Highly recommend staying here. Just a minute from the beach and a few minutes drive from the main place. We would thoroughly recommend staying here. Thank you Amanda!

Rachel was very nice and responsive. We had a little issue at the beginning but Rachel sorted out in a really good way. We all loved the place, tiny but with everything we needed. Strongly recommended and will definitely go back next time.

this was our second stay here and we loved it even more. Philippa is a great host who is always friendly and helpful, and the cottage is beautiful, peaceful and perfect for a quiet relaxing weekend. The outdoor bath is a big highlight, and the catering options were really good too. We definitely recommend this place to anyone, and we will be back again!

Great place to use if you are a business working in the area and you need to accommodate a team of workers. The property had all that was needed for our staff to feel at home and cater for themselves. Really good option for a larger team. Ebony was a great communicator as a host and gave great instructions that were easy to follow. Highly recommend this property.

Apartment was clean and tidy on arrival, easy to find and access. Quick walk to a fantastic beach, and easy drive to local attractions. Excellent guest book with local recommendations.

Had a great stay at Emily and Aaron’s place, was as described and a goof location for the Turoa Ski Field. Great cooking amenities and loved the fireplace. Thank you guys!

Lovely staying at Nicoles stand alone unit, with a fully equipped kitchen and stunning interior and furniture with the likes of being close to the Mairangi Bay was perfect! Cant thank Nicole enough for accommodating our date changes and making the whole process easy and smooth! Definitely would recommend this place to any of my friends and family!!

We stayed at Brents place while visiting Napier for three nights. Our stay exceeded expectations. The view was to die for, the place was spacious and comfortable, as well as completely private. Great amenities and lovely small touches from the hosts (coffee, washing liquid etc.). The jacuzzi was absolutely lovely in the cooler evenings which was waiting for us all hot on arrival 😀. Highly recommend this home and hosts, would definitely be top on list when in Napier again!

Lovely stay at Robyn’s place for 4 nights. Well stocked kitchen of utensils and tea/coffee, fantastic and hot shower. Would recommend if you want a peaceful place to stay, with good amenities.

Beautiful accommodation with stunning views. Very spacious, clean, quiet and private.

Just as good as it looks in the photos. Thoughtful and tasteful design with all the kitchen gadgets of a full time home. Lovely big section and very peaceful spot. Would definitely stay again.
