Erin's Bach

BarryRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We had a fantastic couple of days staying at Kathy and Bryon’s. The food that was provided was very much appreciated and the place was clean and tidy as it looked in the pictures. You are only a couple of minutes walk from the beach and the local cafe which is very good. We would happily stay again.

Fishmeister Lodge

AngelinaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We had a fantastic stay at Jodi’s place and couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the very beginning, Jodi was an outstanding host. Her communication was always so prompt and clear. She was always quick to respond to our questions, yet gave us complete privacy throughout our stay, which we really appreciated. The place itself was beautiful and exactly as pictured, and even better in person. It was incredibly spacious, tastefully decorated, and well equipped with everything we needed during our stay. One of the highlights for us was the hot tub. We enjoyed it so much that we used it twice. This was one of the best Airbnb experiences we've had. Jodi is an excellent host and we wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again or recommend it to others. Thanks Jodi 😊

Private garden studio | breakfast included

MarcusRating, 5 stars2 days ago
The Washhouse was a wonderful place to stay. The space was very well-equipped with everything we needed, and the thoughtful touches — like the toast, eggs, and organic jam — were much appreciated. The outdoor tub was amazing, and we had a great night’s sleep. Emma went the extra mile to keep a sweater we left behind, was it and even dry it. Absolutely grateful. Definitely worth a stopover!

We really enjoyed our stay at Karen’s. It was exactly what we needed to wind down. Although the kitchenette was small, we still managed to cook a pasta dish and also a delicious breakfast. The view from bed in the morning was lovely. It was the perfect location for us to do what we needed in Tauranga and out at the family’s farm near Kati

Treetops studio by Lake Karapiro

KayleeRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Perfect, luxurious, well-appointed studio in what is obviously one of the most beautiful places on earth. Very private and feels secluded but is a quick drive to Cambridge which has great cafes and even better pastries. We stayed here as a base for travel to Hobbiton, Rotorua and Taupo (a two hour drive but worth it) and highly recommend the back roads - the scenery is amazing. The studio itself has everything you need, the amenities are modern and high end and the bedding is so comfortable. We struggled to leave the comfort every morning, especially with the rain. Highly recommend staying here.
