Vacation rentals with beach access in Te Ika-a-Māui / North Island

This is a very cozy, warm and unforgettable memory.Because Taoyue is in the first row of the excellent sea view coast, sitting on the balcony facing the harbor at 180 degrees, you can enjoy breakfast, use your phone, flip through magazines, etc. Plus the patient and considerate host couple made us feel at home. Thanks again to the couple for providing such a clean, tidy and comfortable stay.

We loved staying at David’s place. Was a walk to everything we needed. Had an amazing outlook onto the water. And David and his family were so helpful. The kids loved the foosball table too. Highly recommended.

Had another great stay at Doug and Sandra's place. Great hosts

What a lovely place to stay and the location is super close to the beach. Jackson is an awesome host. Great communication and very helpful. Hope to stay here again when we’re visiting Tauranga.

In very Good location, next to the beach, have a beautiful view. Very clean and tidy place, have different kitchen supplies. Easy to check in. Really nice host.

thanks very much for having us, greatl host and thanks very much for the book our grandchildren will love it. Would definitely come back again Dennise and Quinton

Such a lovely place to stay! We travelled to Nelson for a work related trip and this had absolutely everything we needed. Beautiful views over the ocean and walkable distance to a few nearby restaurants. We had one minor inconvenience on day one where one of us was stuck in the lift (just a note to not have bags against the walls!) - something we would have known had we read the booklet inside, however as we were using the lift to get our bags upstairs we hadn't quite got that far... Vivienne was great on the phone and her and they helped us sort this out quickly. Overall a great stay/location and would recommend highly to other guests :)

My husband, my friend and I very much enjoyed our stay at John’s place. It was as described, situated conveniently near both the beach and town. Especially appreciated was a second bathroom. John responded promptly to a query or two and offered helpful suggestions. We would definitely recommend his place and would stay there again.

Beautiful home! Great place to stay with family! Peaceful neighbourhood and just amazing ambiance! Will definitely be back for future staycation! Thank you for sharing your beautiful place!

Amazing stay at Snells beach. Spotlessly clean, more spacious than expected. The view from the master bedroom is fantastic. Lots of outdoor activity equipment though the weather didn’t cooperate with us using them. Child friendly - high chair available, baby deck chair. Spa was lovely

Beautiful space, large and very comfortable for 2 couples. Great location with the beach just at the door, stunning views. Would be happy to stay again

Our family really enjoyed the stay. The accommodation was perfect with a fantastic flow. Provided everything we needed and more. Our host Hayley was super helpful and friendly.

Thank you, Kristie, for a great stay! The house was clean, and your thoughtful touches made us feel cozy and right at home. We particularly enjoyed the sitting out on the deck soaking in the sunshine, and the outdoor shower was bliss. We appreciated your quick responses and helpful recommendations. We highly recommend your place and would love to come back another time.

Fabulous, as always. Thanks for our "home away from home".

The view from Duane's place is stunning! Everything was clean and tidy and we loved the location. Beds were comfortable and there was lots of space for our family. We appreciated the paddle boards and kayaks even if the weather didn't quite cooperate with us towards the end of our stay. I can highly recommend Duane's place. Thanks for having us!

It was a good fit for our whole family, including our small dog. The location was a highlight, with the beach just a short walk away. The living area was cosy and worked really well for relaxing and watching movies on the rainy days.

We thoroughly enjoyed our two night stay. It was spacious indoors. Sitting outside with a cold drink taking in the view and watching tuis, quail and fantails was great. We made use of the barbecue and washing machine. Kitchen area was compact. Alan the host was welcoming and gave us good tips on things to do.

Perfect location for exploring Wellington! Location is walkable to all points of interest in the city including Cuba St, the museum, and the city center. Beautiful views of the city to enjoy in the morning and night.

The guesthouse is absolutely lovely. It adjoins the main house which is an old two storey character villa, looks out onto beautiful grounds, and the interior is just lovely (and the bed and linen were just great). Katharine left us croissants and muesli for breakfast plus coffee, and was really lovely to deal with. Would highly recommend!

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

We loved staying here! We were able to communicate with the hosts with ease. The Airbnb is within walking distance of restaurants, grocery stores and everything in between. Irene is really accomodating and had come down to check on us to see if we needed anything which was nice. The facilities were great. Personally, the pictures don’t do the property justice! We were pleasantly surprised at how spacious and homely it was. Most definitely would stay here again if I’m in the area next time😊

So clean and tidy on arrival. The beds were so comfy and we slept so well. The location was amazing - a short walk to the beach and shops/restaurants. Would definitely return here!

Really enjoyed our stay at Cooks Beach. Easy walk to restaurant and beach very peaceful and friendly. Would come again.

We had an amazing time at Jo’s place. We received very clear instructions, the place was so beautiful with an amazing view. Perfect time to relax. We will definitely be back.
