Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Whanganui River

We had a great time at this lovely secluded home. The living area was really spacious and the kitchen was amazing and well equipped for cooking and serving a diverse range of meals - an entertainers delight. We will certainly look to rebooking in the future. Dawn even found a little bunny that one of the girls left behind and kindly got it safely home.

We stayed for one night while travelling down the North Island. The house was easy to access and was fully fenced which was ideal as we have a dog and 2 young children. The place was clean and tidy and was family friendly.

“A Perfect Stay with Stunning Views!” I had an amazing stay at this AirBnB! The location was perfect—peaceful, yet close to everything I needed. One of the highlights was the beautiful walk nearby, which offered breathtaking views that made every morning feel magical. Whether enjoying a cup of coffee outside or taking in the scenery during a stroll, the surroundings were absolutely stunning. The home itself was spotless, comfortable, and well-equipped, making my stay truly enjoyable. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing and scenic getaway!

We loved our stay, such a relaxing and peaceful place and a lovely walk to the lake. We enjoyed relaxing in the spa in the evening. Cute bach which had everything we needed.

We stayed for a week in this house in Turangi. Both of us have no experience fishing and we did not plan to learn it. This house has a lot to offer outside of that. On top of being a cosy stay giving us a homely feeling it is also a great location to discover the surroundings, Tongariro National Park, Taupo Lake, even up to Rotorua. The house itself is very clean, well equiped and the garden is beautiful and secluded. Definately recommended.

We had a wonderful stay at this Airbnb on the ranch! The peaceful surroundings and beautiful natural scenery made it a perfect getaway. The accommodations were clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. The host was welcoming and attentive, ensuring our stay was enjoyable. I especially loved waking up to the sounds of nature and having the chance to explore the ranch. The rooms were huge and great for a big family or groups. Highly recommend this unique experience for anyone looking for a tranquil retreat!

The lodge was everything we needed for a boys weekend away. Will be planning to go back in the future

Great home for families with good sized bedrooms and bathrooms. The living space was very comfortable, and the addition of a range of family boardgames was great. The home is set in a quiet tranquil area overlooking forest/bush which provided lovely walks. Easy 10mins walk to Carrotland which is an an awesome adventure playground and activity area with pump track, bike tracks, playground etc. Our 7yr old loved it. We had some issues with running water when we arrived but Charlotte was super responsive and helpful and it was all resolved within an hour...and Charlotte provided a wee gift basket (nibbles and wine) in acknowledgement of our being slightly put out. Charlotte was very thoughtful and responsive in managing the whole issue. We will absolutely stay again. It was a lovely comfortable home.

Amazing accommodation!!! Highly recommend. The property was clean and tidy and the amenities were top notch!! We had a great weekend and would book here again.

Lovely spacious private place to stay. Very tastefully decorated. Fiona is a great hostess. Very easy to deal with.

Great family week in Whanganui. Our place was amazing, comfortable, great vibe, relaxing, loved the pool and deck with outdoor bath. Wished we could stay longer. Ken and Jess so helpful and responsive, very friendly. Would love to stay there again.

myself and grandchildren loved Cecile's place..homely and has everything our lil family needed even the extras of brekky stuff, spreads, bread, milk ..truly appreciated when showing up with X4 young children ..We had a dip in pool abit cool at this time of year but refreshing ..

A great spot. Walking distance to the beautiful lake and gardens. The place was very tidy with beautiful decor, comfortable beds and a beautiful bathroom. Private with a seperate entrance except just one bathroom. Also no running water in the kitchen which I assume is work in progress. Jude was very friendly and welcoming. Definitely could return.

Ruby was a great and was very proactive with instructions. The place was spacious and had great entertainment with the spa, pool, and pool table.

This was one of the top Airbnbs I’ve stayed at. Remote and rugged environment but a jewel of a place to stay. The “getting there” was a great part of the adventure and made it a place that we two couples won’t soon forget.

Another excellent stay, has everything we need and perfect for the dogs.

Lovely large old villa. Well insulated with great heating and cooling ammenities. Large rooms with very comfortable beds, even the bunks have quality mattresses. Very clean throughout. We only stayed a short time but would love to come again and be able to enjoy the outdoor space and lounging, it’s very large, private with large gardens and trees.

The best place we've stayed at in New Zealand 😍 Everything is very clean, nice and with everything you need to have a great stay. There is plenty of room to place two large suitcases without being in the way, a large bathroom and the best thing is the kitchen, with all kinds of very well-kept utensils for cooking. There were also many options for breakfast, all very good. We were able to do laundry and there is a fenced terrace area for the accommodation, everything was very nice. Sher and Carty were charming with us, always making sure everything went well, taking an interest in us and giving us recommendations. Definitely a place to go back to, we left there delighted.

Great place to stay and break up the drive to Wellington with our two dogs and babies.

Comfortable and cosy. Lovely spa pool and fire with firewood and kindling ready to go. Only complaint was the dim lighting in the living area which made reading and board games hard to see. Other than that, we loved it and would recommend to others.

Beautiful spot in the country,great little cabin,very peaceful, definitely recommend.

Peaceful riverfront stay. Cosy and well equipped modern house. Comfy beds and lovely linens. Loved the quiet floor. No creaking at night. Huge garden and easy walk to the river freshly mown. We stayed at the beginning of autumn and we had a mix of hot days and rainy days but didn’t need the heating. It looks like the house would be very easy to heat though. Fireplace and heat pump. And easy to ventilate with five sliding doors. Great privacy and main bedroom has its own patio area. We appreciated being able to bring along our dog. And that there were spare water bowls for him.
