Smoking friendly vacation rentals in Bay Of Islands

A welcome place to stay. It was very warm and comfortable with a homely atmosphere. It was wonderful to find unexpected extras; home baking, bowls of fruit etc.

My family and I had a wonderful stay. We enjoyed the stunning location, we enjoyed fishing and had lots of space. Definitely recommended 👌

Very nice accommodation. Tastefully appointed and comfortable. Everything we needed was provided. Location is very quiet in rural setting. Thanks to the absence if city lights, the stargazing from the front porch was amazing. Would definitely recommend.

Great value for money in a good location. We didn't have the best weather so the Scrabble and Netflix came in handy. Lovely big clean bathroom and well equipped kitchen, it was just unfortunate the dishwasher was broken while we were there but it wasn't a biggie. Would recommend as a central location for day-tripping in the region.

Great stay. Everything necessary for a short or long trip! Didn't use the pool. Would be a very easy walk to Paihia although the house is up a rather steep/long driveway.

Lucy is just getting started but saved us from Cyclone Tam and gave us a clean, dry, comfortable room for the night. The location is funky and convenient and Lucy is a friendly and caring host.

Great stay great service , in the future i would book via business - bay of islands apartments mucb cheaper to go directly through business site then air bnb x great stay

In Whangarei to visit our son. This house was in beautiful location and easily accessible to grocery store, places to eat and in nice neighborhood for walking. Hostess made sure our arrival and checking went smoothly, even with a later than expected arrival. Space was perfect for our party of 3 plus visit from our son who lives just down road. Space was very clean with all amenities we needed. Would stay again if back in area

Richard and Lynne are fantastic hosts and their place is the perfect retreat into the beauty of nature. They provide everything you could possibly need- from coffee for your morning coffee/tea to coffee and tea, basic kitchen supplies like salt, olive oil, tea, coffee, etc. All the bath soaps , cleaning supplies, laundry and dish detergents and even spot removal for the laundry! It is super comfortable- from the bed to the sofas and living room as a whole. The front porch is amazing- great place to eat a meal or sit in the comfy chairs and have coffee while enjoying the fabulous view. We even used the grill which was great too. I could go on and on about why this place is wonderful. Just book it. You won't regret! And the area is beautiful to explore- the five waterfalls to walk to, nice town of KeriKeri and easy to get to the rest of the Bay of Islands.

Of all the places we've stayed around the world, Richard & Neil's place stands out. Mangonui is, of course, a fabulous location with Coopers beach a short walk away, the stunningly beautiful harbour, the little wine bar and fish & chip shops. But the little cottage is divine. Clean, everything works, super comfortable bed and pretty, private garden. We loved sitting on the deck as the sun went down with glass of wine (which was complimentary) amngst the birdsong. Great stay we *cannot recommend it highly enough*.

Our stay at Roxy’s place was exactly what we were after, peaceful, private and absolutely stunning views. The property had everything we needed, and we were able to really relax and enjoy the rural surroundings. It’s close enough to Coopers Beach to access any essentials, but far enough away to make you feel in a world of your own. We spent some time travelling about the Northlands and also had a couple of days where we didn’t leave the property, relaxing on the deck was a favourite way to spend some sunny days. If you are looking for peace and quiet in stunning surroundings, then this is the place to be. Thanks, Roxy, for being an amazing host and sharing your piece of paradise with us.

Blown away by location and beautifully presented home, complete with all the bells and whisltes. Loved that we had access to plenty of beach toys, games and books. Did not need a thing. Felt right at home after travelling 800kms. Perfect size for a big whanau who love the beach. The sunrises and sunsets are stunning.

It is a fabulous place to stay for families and the additional equipment that they have for the families to use is amazing. The setting is glorious and outlook is stunning. The Bay its self is very safe for children to undertake water activities. The hosts were lovely and went above and beyond with additional options for linen because of the rainy weather conditions. We would have no hesitation in booking to stay again.

Lani was very friendly and helpful. She made sure we were all informed about the property and amenities. 5 star ⭐ Host !!

Very friendly host, very clean and tidy inside, well stocked fridge for brekfast

what a place!! the house is far back road and incredibly serene. we came with two young kids and 4 adults and there was heaps to keep us occupied. trip across the estuary with kayaks to these amazing beach breaks a particular highlight. The whole house has something for everyone and honestly think we may be back. Rebecca was also an amazing host and had loads of local knowledge to share.
