The Little Shed
Thanks for the stay! The area was lovely.

Te Miro Lakeside Cottage. Lake Tarawera. Rotorua.
Ngaire is a fabulous host, she was warm and welcoming and we had a wonderful peaceful time at her lovely Air B n B. We will be back to stay for sure!!

BEHIND THE HEDGE
We enjoyed 3 nights at Behind the hedge. Although other properties are near by,it’s very private with carefully placed screening. Loved the artistic touches, the beautiful bathroom, comfortable bed, outdoor seating and of course proximity to the beach! Also love the materials used for the build and the coffee table! Can’t fault it really. It was perfect for us. Thanks Jeff

Kaimai Sunset B & B
We had a wonderful stay at Kaimai Sunset B & B! The property is beautifully maintained, peaceful, and offers breathtaking views of the Kaimai Ranges which truly lives up to the name. The room was spotless, cozy, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Brenda and her partner were incredibly warm and welcoming, striking the perfect balance between hospitality and privacy. We also appreciated the thoughtful touches like the breakfast provisions. Our twin boys really enjoyed their playtime at their backyard and in the hobbit hole. It’s a perfect spot to unwind and explore the nearby sights. We’d love to return someday!

Views over Whakaipo Bay
An absolutely wonderful little cabin atop the hill overlooking the surrounding region with a beautiful interior and exterior, and with even more impressive views of the sunset over the lake.

Easy to find beautiful little pod Everything we needed with all the cosiness of home Close to everything

Beach Road Bach
À beautiful, well appointed and super relaxing spot to stay 😊.

Home on the Range
A lovely place for a short stay, had everything we needed and was close to the beach. Also enjoyed a recommended restaurant for a casual dinner, within easy walking distance. Ticked all our boxes, would have liked to stay another night.

Backyard Bach 2 mins walk from Beach and Village
gotta love a place that is sooo close to the beach that you can jump in the ocean to start your day. great airbnb, clean, convenient location, very peaceful, and a few restaurants just down the road if you want it. kitchen set up is a bit quirky, but works for everything you need.

Quiet and out of town
We had a wonderful stay at Helen & Lee’s. The place was easy to locate and it’s in a peaceful, residential area, yet very close to restaurants, things to do, town centre, etc. It was pristine and welcoming— the homemade gingerbread was such a thoughtful and delicious touch! Even the coffee selection was enjoyable. We also really appreciated the small details that made a big difference, like the torch, coasters and phone holder, the fantastic local recommendations. They have also very thoughtfully put together a detailed folder answering every possible question one might have about the property, water, and more — it was incredibly helpful and informative. Another thing we really enjoyed is the great selection of books to relax to - helpful resources for planning or learning about New Zealand. Enjoyed some great reading time, especially since the property itself offers beautiful views. Thank you for the comfortable and memorable experience.

Gorgeous spot to chill
This place is a hidden gem in the area, and the host is incredibly friendly. After a long journey, we both felt right at home. The surroundings are private and peaceful, and the hospitality from the host was truly amazing. I highly recommend this place!

Modern Garden view Studio - free parking onsite
A gorgeous little garden cottage on the outskirts of Rotorua but within easy driving of all the local attractions. It had everything needed for a short stay. Bronwyn was extremely helpful after our rental car got a flat tyre assisting in making a phone call on our behalf.

Tui Glen luxury lake side apartment
We had the most comfortable of stays at Tui Glen. No other word than perfect can sum up our stay and interaction with Glendyr. It suited our needs to see relations in the area and to reach easily all our activities. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending a stay here. From hot tub, to swimming pool to bikes available for use, all was way beyond our expectations. Just wish we could have had more time available to use the amenities but we were busy visiting tourist attractions and family. Thank you for a wonderful stay Glendyr you have a gorgeous home and the photos do not do it justice. The accommodation is far bigger than we expected. Brilliant 🤩 stay Annette Martin Claire .

817A On the Lake at Acacia Bay
We had another fantastic stay at Warren's accommodation. It is peaceful and picturesque, and it has everything you need for a relaxing break. Our two little dogs love the local walks along the lake. 5 stars all round.

'Whangamata 'Weekender ' Comfy cosy studio
Huge comfy bed. Cleanest Airbnb I’ve stayed in! Thank you and lovely little touches - cereal etc.

Rustic ‘n cozy country gem in the heart of Te Puna
3rd time back and I'll keep returning when I need to travel - just delightful. Just me for work, far enough out of Tauranga to be quiet, but not too far. Very comfortable and Cricket (puppy) always swings by, but respectfully outside, in the hope of a snack!

The Penthouse Studio at Lake Tarawera
Comfortable and cozy stay with large windows and great view, especially from the terrace. Well equipped kitchen. Lots of books and homey feel. Great alternative to staying in Rotorua.

The Fat Fish, Studio with Outside Bath
Had an amazing time at the fat fish over the Easter weeekend. We sadly didn’t get the full Waihi Beach experience as it bucketed down with rain most of our stay until the very last day (of course 😅) but still enjoyed the beautiful pristine accomodation. Jeanette was a star the whole time, very attentive, friendly and accomodating to all our needs. Recommend to anyone contemplating booking this listing, I know my husband and I will definitely be coming back again, hopefully in beach exploring weather. Oh my gosh the outside bath was definitely a highlight for me, even with the rain hitting my face constantly it created a tropical feel. The whole place was stunning, cute, and intimate. There’s a market every Sunday I believe, that we were lucky enough to catch, and it’s not too far from location. It isn’t a very large market but they have a lot of cute trinkets and good food, who doesn’t love a market? If you’re looking for a place in Waihi Beach to stay then this is your spot. A 10!

The Lavender Room self contained studio.
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!
