Vacation rentals with beach access in New Zealand

We loved every minute of our stay here in Raglan- and this ocean-view oasis was the perfect home base to relax and enjoy the scenery. The view was, of course, incredible- we watched surfers in the waves for hours. We greatly enjoyed the amenities like the hot tub and sauna, and found the location to be perfect, with just a short drive into the town with coffee shops & restaurants, and close to the beaches where we spent most of our time. We absolutely loved our stay here and hope to come back!

This is an absolutely charming apartment to stay in and we enjoyed it immensely. Lynne is the perfect host - warm and welcoming but also attentive to our needs. There was a selection of goodies when we arrived and she baked the most amazing fresh muffins for us the following morning. The apartment itself is beautifully decorated with an inspiring collection of furniture and framed photographs. There is also a bookcase with a discerning and eclectic collection of books if you’re interested in reading- which I was. The real highlight of the apartment is the view. There is wide, expansive view of Auckland’s harbour and you are not overlooked by any of the neighbouring houses. Sitting there on the super comfy couch, with a cup of tea while looking out on the water is simply bliss. Overall, this a marvellous place to stay and simply on a higher level to many other similar apartments. We highly recommend it and will certainly come back.

Dayne's place was a great location, quiet, comfortable and warm, with everything we needed for a couple of days in the city. Wonderful communication too! Would recommend.

Great place really enjoyed our stay and had everything we could expect. Over all more than satisfied.

A wonderful place. Moments from the beach where there were people swimming and SUPing all morning. We went in twice for an invigorating morning swim. Lovely walk loop on the beach too. The space is excellent, quiet and comfortable and very cool arty decor and a fabulous view. Driving in and out can be tricky due to traffic but a minor con in a sea of pro’s. Loved it. Raglan Roasts nearby do a cracking coffee too.

Fantastic stay and everything was as describe and easy to get around.

We had a fantastic 3 nights enjoying the views and character of Julie's place, very friendly with lots of locals tips and would definitely like to revisit with the family !

5 star accommodation and location. Perfect for a stay in Paihia. Aynsley was the perfect host . We shall always seek out to stay here when visiting Paihia.

Spent nearly 2 months right here, don’t think we can find any better place around this area. Thank you Peter, for your great help and your hospitality, all the kids have great time at here.

This is one of the most beautiful houses I have ever stayed in. Piecful environment, breathtaking views captured so well by the house design. Every corner of the property is an art piece. We are traveling with the family members that arrived from the USA to NZ for the first time, and they were speechless when they saw entire New Zealand beauty from one balcony. Highly recommending! Kitchen is very well equipped, rooms and beds are super comfortable. Felt like staying in s 5 star hotel, but much much better. thanks so much!

We loved our stay at Katherine's place. the property is beautifully presented and warm. We were travelling with a toddler and he certainly appreciated the toys! Katherine was very proactive and responsive. instructions were very thorough and easy to follow. Great spot for a weekend away. Thanks

This is undoubtably one of the best Air BNB places we have stayed. We felt at home and spent many an hour sitting at the window with the fire crackling - nice glass of red in hand of course. not much more to say except WOW. Thank you to Angela and her family for sharing their place with us

Beautiful spot on the water, perfect for weekend get away. We will definitely be coming back :)

Max was amazing and we really enjoyed his company, he is such a great host. The house was comfortable and the view was worth everything. We stayed during a storm and even though the weather was bad, we had the best time. I would recommend staying here one hundred percent.

This was a last minute trip, but we could not have been a better place - the house, location, and everything was lovely 😊😊 we miss it already! A massive bonus is the kids play room - our baby loved it!

Wow!!! This was top notch. Place was clean, well appointed and even had a coffee plunger ( soooo good) We loved everything about our stay. My only complaint is I couldn’t stay longer. I even managed to locate a local dog breeder while at the markets ( where I had an incredible burger) I would move here ( to Kathy’s ) in a heart beat if my work would allow.

Perfect apartment to stay at in Wellington. Everything was as per the booking description etc.

We had an amazing four night stay here. The apartment was excellently furnished, the location effectively on the lakefront was fantastic and the outlook across the lake to Mount Tarawera was beautiful. We could not have wished for more. Thank you Murray for being such a great host

great place, thank you

This is our second time here and very happy that we were lucky enough to be able to book it. This place is absolutely fabulous, decorated with impeccable taste, super comfortable, super clean and it has a beautiful garden to look at and our host was just amazing. It is by far our favourite AirBnb.

This was an amazing place to stay. The apartment is beautiful clean and exceeded my expectations in every way. The views, the comfy beds, the beautiful linen and Craig was so helpful. I will definitely go back. By far the best Place I have stayed. Thank you ☺️

Great hosts. The Airbnb was super comfortable and peaceful. Fantastic location near walks and the beach.

We really enjoyed our stay at Irene’s. It was great to be so close to the beach and there were lots of shops and cafes within walking distance. It’s a scenic 20 minute drive to Snow Planet is that is part of your holiday plans. The apartment was very comfortable and had everything we needed to make our stay a pleasure. Irene was so friendly, helpful and caring. We would definitely stay again.

Short drive from the airport, Close to lots of amazing cafes, the beach, and hot pools. Fantastic views from the top of Mount Maunganui - worth the climb. Hot pools were great to soak away any aches after the climb.
