Vacation rentals with a fireplace in Whangārei

I absolutely loved everything about my stay at the Piki Cottage and can highly recommend it. It is so peaceful, private and relaxing, has everything you need, plus the hosts are so generous, friendly and quick responding. There are so many things to do in the surrounding area, or you can enjoy and explore this wonderful huge garden. I could have stayed forever. Thank you for everything!

We had a wonderful weekend away at Nikki’s classic kiwi bach! The location is so beautiful, and it was great to be right on the waterfront. The Bach is lovely and had everything we needed for a great stay. I only wish that we could have stayed longer! Nikki is a friendly, helpful and responsive host. Hopefully we will get to come back again one day!

Such a great stay at this lovely home - super cosy for our group of friends needing a peaceful long weekend away! Loved the communal spaces and we had everything we needed. Matt was a great host and gave us a late checkout too which was def a bonus! Thanks again :)

Very responsive hosts. Accommodation was very clean and had everything you needed. Great sized space for a group, nice extras of spa and fire room for winter. Good outdoor spaces, plenty of space for parking.

Our party of 4 couldn't be more happier. The home is exactly how it looks in the photos and even more lovely in person. The home was immaculate and had everything we needed. Well-stocked with dishes, silverware, glasses, cooking utensils, pot, pans etc. Location was walking distance to Bennetts which has a bakery, café and decadent chocolates. New World supermarket just a short drive away. Jessica was awesome and responsive throughout. Highly recommend this property and we would definitely book this place again on our next trip to Mangawhai.

Our whānau had a wonderful stay at Rawiri’s Airbnb. Rawiri was exceptionally responsive and helpful throughout our visit. We were truly impressed by his warm hospitality and manaakitanga. The two adjoining properties — which we hadn’t realised were connected — far exceeded our expectations. Everything was clean, modern, and spacious, providing the perfect environment for our whānau to relax and enjoy. Ka nui te mihi ki a koe, Rawiri. We look forward to returning in the future!!!

We’ve stayed at many Mangawhai properties and this is a new favourite. Perfect location between estuary and surf beach. Mama and baby slept in the main house and couple with fur child in the self-contained sleep out. Superking bed was a treat, although the mattress too soft for us. The fire place is cosy and the birdsong so tranquil. House is elevated and private but neighbours are still close. A group nearby partied at night but were quiet by 10pm. Leeanne was a responsive, friendly and helpful host. The house has a homely and welcoming vibe . We will stay again!

We had such a wonderful stay at Janice’s place! From the start, her communication was clear, friendly, and super helpful. The home itself had everything we needed and more—spacious, well-equipped, and really comfortable. The location was perfect for us, close to everything but still peaceful. There was plenty of room for our family to spread out and relax, which made a big difference. We’d definitely love to stay again!

Five adults and six children had a wonderful weekend in Mangawhai, using Carolynn's house as our base. There was plenty of space for everyone to find their own corner, both inside and out. The kitchen was big enough for several cooks to work in at once and the dining table was big enough for us to all sit around so mealtimes were a treat, not a chore. Amazing view to the east, including sunrise across water and moonscape sand dunes. The spa at the end of the day was a special treat for our family, as was the large TV screen in the lounge. We missed a few books and board games but everything else was in good supply. Thank you for a special long weekend with my family Carolynn.

I cannot say enough about how beautiful Gill's home is. The surroundings are so beautiful, short drive into town where you can find everything your looking for. Gill is such a wonderful and kind host, if you have a chance to visit her home, you will not be disappointed. Thank you for making my son's wedding so special, so lucky to have met such a amazing woman.

Very good place. Beautiful place

Our group had a lovely stay. The property was as clean, tidy and well appointed. Thank you for hosting us

Carmen and Justin are friendly welcoming host who go the extra mile to ensure you have a memorable relaxing break in their beautiful home. From the start they had excellent communication-accepting our late request on a busy weekend with a contractor rounding up on site. The home is cosy, clean, stylish and ideally located. It was children friendly and had plenty of board games and entertainment for quality family time. Despite our short stay we would highly recommend and book again in future. Thank you for a short and sweet getaway.
