Guesthouse vacation rentals in Manawatū-Whanganui Region

Perfect location - quiet with a lovely view across the lake to the town centre. Our stay was only for two night's and the accommodation was clean and comfortable. Didn't have the opportunity to meet Mel in person, but great communicator with messages. Will definitely recommend this ABnB to others and will definitely use again ourselves. Thank you Mel for a perfect stay!

Lovely stay in a beautiful location- thanks again.

Great place and good set up for kids only thing is couldn't find a vaccum to clean up after our self's

We absolutely loved our stay at Jenny’s place! She was incredibly welcoming and friendly, which made us feel right at home. The space was cozy, comfortable, and offered breathtaking views. There were plenty of breakfast options available, and Jenny even left us some delicious treats and fresh fruit—such a thoughtful touch. Highly recommended!

Friendly hospitable host. I enjoyed the brief stay. Thank for being so accommodating

Beautiful views and a comfortable stay. The location is a short drive to the city, making it convenient. The fireplace added a cozy touch, making the experience even better. Highly recommended

Perfect and just what i was looking for for a couple of nights. If you looking for comfort and a home from home place to lay your head... stop searching just book this one. Nice helpful people as well .. 100%. Will be back when that way. Thank you

really nice, peaceful . had everything needed

Appreciate Sarah for accommodating our last minute changes. Would 100% recommend her place.

Perfect stop for an overnighter after a long drive. Just off the main highway so conveniently located but quiet you don’t hear anything Would definitely recommend, warm private and well equiped little space

great spot for to checkout Whanganui and surrounds. cottage has everything you need and the information binder provided is very helpful. there is road noise if you are a light sleeper but we didn't mind as we were already up for the heaviest morning traffic.

Was such an amazing place to stay. Was helpful, informative and responsive. Beautiful surroundings, and peaceful. Would highly recommend it for anyone looking jusy for a getaway.

Wonderful stay. 10/10 for attention to details. Felt right at home. The place was very clean & comfortable.

Lovely place to stay, Angela was super responsive and helpful!

It’s a beautiful house overlooking the apple orchards. Glenda’s prepared us brownies, fruits and chips before hand, which is very sweet gesture. It’s say a studio but the kitchen is separated from the bedroom. The appliances felt luxurious. The bed is very comfy, we actually overslept. The tv is big facing the sofa but you can turn it toward your bed. The laundry room is in a separate room right beside it. Definitely looking forward staying there again!

What amazing hosts and a fantastic place to stay. One of my favourite places to stay within Airbnb. Pristine, spacious, light and bright. Such a cleverly designed space with everything you could have wanted, and a good continental breakfast with nespresso thrown in. Would absolutely love to stay again. thank you so much Roberta and Giacomo, all the best for your next adventure. Bless you heaps gabrielle & james ☺️

Peaceful and serene spot, beautiful view. Clean and tidy property, clear communication with easy to follow instructions. Description was very accurate. Would highly recommend and would book to stay here for future trips :)

Lovely place and great host ! The place had very comfy beds and had everything enough for our stay!

We were looking for a place to stay overnight after attending a family funeral in Napier, and finding an Airbnb close to the highway south of Napier isn't easy. So we were delighted to find The Phoenix on Millar in the village of Otane. Not only is it conveniently situated but is a cosy haven on a cold wet night. Good heating and a warm, comfortable bed. It also has a well equipped kitchen, and under cover parking is a bonus. We did have a little trouble finding the gate in the dark but that was a very minor problem. I'm sure that Carolina's place would be equally delightful in the summer especially with the tiny leafy courtyard off the bedroom just beckoning for a morning coffee or quiet read . would definitely recommend 🙂

Ann was so kind and accepted my last minute booking request, after I decided to hike out a day early from the Tongariro Northern Circuit due to bad weather. It was just the cozy place I needed - and oh did I sleep well! It was so nice and quiet. I would describe Ann's as a "peaceful retreat", and would encourage you to stay a few nights! Ann and her daughter warmly welcomed me, took the time to show me around, and we're just lovely to chat to. The little cottage was just the right size, private, and in the most gorgeous setting. I was kindly offered a late check out, and had the weather not been so sunny I would have happily stayed there all day! Some people are meant to host - Ann is one of those people 😊 I look forward to coming back someday in the future!

Considerate and kind host, appreciated the little things available on arrival such as tea, coffee, sugar, sachet drinks & milk. Lovely amenities that provided everything we needed for our stay. Will recommend to family & friends and will be our first choice of accommodation when passing through Taupo again.

Fantastic stay. The hosts went above and beyond with hospitality. The home was squeaky clean and very well appointed.
