Cabin rentals with a hot tub

Fiery Peak Eco-Retreat with Wood-fired Hot Tub
We had a great stay at Kay’s place! Very relaxing and well equipped. Would definitely recommend staying here.

Stunning Private Log Cabin
Best Airbnb we have stayed at, Sean is an amazing host, very generous and made us feel welcome. The airbnb itself is beautifully designed and is a perfect retreat for those wanting a getaway for a few nights. We particularly loved the spa and the lovely spacious decking surrounded by trees. Would definitely love to come back and highly recommend this airbnb. 10/10

Koru Cabin. Includes Breakfast & Hot Tub
Hosts were friendly and helpful. Suggested a really good bike ride for me to do with my daughter. The Bach was immaculately clean and had everything that we needed. Would definitely stay there again

The Rise. Ben Ohau
What an amazing cabin! Looked exactly like the pictures and the outside bath was icing on the cake!

Gorgeous Cabin - Spa Pool! NO CLEAN FEE!
Place was a great stay. Bed was comfy and everything as was described in post. Located in a nice and quiet subdivision. Would recommend to anyone.

Kowhai Cottages - Relax and Unwind
My wife and I had a wonderful stay here. The cabin is new and very well appointed, the outdoor areas and hot tub are fun touches, and the kitchen is great for cooking if you’re inclined. It’s warm and comfortable, and Jana and Sean were great hosts. Check in was a breeze and we even had a nice welcome sign waiting for us. Would certainly love to stay again and would strongly recommend this space.

Paparoa Beach Hideaway One Bedroom House
If you are thinking about staying here - stay here! A standout experience of thoughtful accommodation. Guided to the cabin by solar lights on the driveway, the cabin was spotless and welcoming. The spa is fantastic, and the surroundings are stunning. Lots to do in the surrounding areas but plenty to keep you occupied just on the property. A favourite Airbnb stay for sure!

Creekside Cabin
This is such a great find and well worth the money. A little slice of heaven that is still close to lots of other areas, wish we could have stayed longer. Jude was very welcoming and we appreciated them letting us stay at the creekside cabin when it is normally only for one person.

Mountain Cabin - central, cosy and cute with views
A great spot to stay in Wānaka, located at the back of the property it was private and peaceful even with a number of airbnb’s on the property.

The Cottage at Whites Farm
We had a wonderful time at the little cabin. Would have loved more time to appreciate the relaxing atmosphere, but it was a perfect location for the wedding we attended down the road. Thank you very much for the hospitality.

Outdoor Tubs | Location | Tranquility
A beautiful place to stay, in a lovely quiet location. There’s nearby walking tracks, gorgeous views and (perhaps thanks to the time of year) hardly anyone else staying in the nearby accommodations on the mountain. It was so peaceful! The house is very well appointed, cosy and very alpine in feel. Thank you for allowing dogs to stay too. We know many AirBnBs don’t allow this - as we don’t travel in NZ without the pup your generosity here meant we could enjoy the mountain. Otherwise we’d have had to stay elsewhere (so a smart business move too, guys!) All round - fabulous!

The Beach Cabin Number Two
This was an absolute hidden gem! David was incredibly hospitable and we felt right at home with all the special touches. I really appreciate all the effort that was put in, to making this stay feel oh so homely. Thank you once again. Joe and Za 😊

The Cape Rocks Cabin
Whare ataahua (beautiful home). We loved our stay. Cosy warm whare (home). Loved the weka’s. Fantastic walks and views. Definitely recommend this as a great place to stay.

Cozy Cabin with kitchen
Maybe a 20 minute drive to the small town of wanaka, quiet and cozy cabin, very kind hosts, highly recommend!

Karaka Studio on Manuka Island
One of our favourite stays in NZ. Beautiful location near an excellent beach and well situated to explore the Abel Tasman national park. Helpful hosts with great local tips.

The Barn at WildEarthLodge
Hands down the best place we have ever stayed! The area was gorgeous and everyone was so welcoming. It was hard to leave this place. We hope to have the opportunity to visit again in the future!

Couples Cabin on the Coast
Amazing place to stay with breathtaking views of the West Coast especially on a clear day. Highly recommend this place to stay. We plan to stay again.

Lime Hut with wood burning sauna - Waipara Narrows
We had such a beautiful stay here and really enjoyed everything about it. Feeling disconnected from the world and in our own little private slice of paradise, plus the private sauna, the comfort and lovely attention to details... everything was great :) . We will definitely return.

A cozy alpine cabin where mountains meet the stars
Ruataniwha Hut is such a beautiful spot! Coming from a country area in aus ourselves, we have a special appreciation for the beauty and the peacefulness of this place 😊 The hut was so cosy, had everything we needed and made for a perfect stay whilst travelling around the area. Huge credit to Andrew who has put in so much effort to make this place special!

Pete's Place, Arthur's Pass
Awesome place to stay. Pete's place is very warm and has amazing views of the surrounding mountains. The amenities make you feel like you are at home!

Private Garden Cabin - on airport bus route
Peaceful little shack in a quiet neighborhood. Perfect for our week stay in Christchurch. Lesley was very helpful and always responsive. Would definitely stay again.

Off-grid Wilderness Cabin
Really nice retreat. Lovely rain water shower with hot water was fantastic after a swim in the river. Just FYI cabin is a little difficult to find, it is slightly before where it shows on the map. Otherwise a great stay!

Endeavour View - Rayner Cabin
Jayne and William were warm and friendly and really took care of us. Right from the time of booking till the time they loaded up our luggage on the shuttle. Jayne was very proactive in giving us clear directions to find the place. she was very responsive while we were enroute to the cabin. The cabin itself is cozy, clean and well maintained. The basic amenities will be pretty much everything you require - a stove, compost toilet, and shower. We regret that we couldn't spend more time there and had to move on to our next post on the Queen Charlotte track. The location is spectacular and very close to the water so a quick dip or a kayak would be lovely in this place. All in all, a very pleasant time in a lovely place with wonderful people. Would recommend!

Piwakawaka - Adventure Cabin
Lovely and peaceful stay. We loved the cabin and had a great getaway. Mark helped us with our luggage up to the cabin which we really appreciated! Beautiful place, highly recommend!
