Guesthouse vacation rentals in Hauraki Gulf / Tīkapa Moana

Thanks for the stay! The area was lovely.

It’s hard to find enough superlatives to describe our stay at Fiona’s. The apartment itself was superb with everything we needed for a 6 night stay. Fiona and her family were incredibly welcoming and helpful and the location was perfect for us as it was so incredibly close to the yacht club where we were attending a junior regatta. Despite being attached to the owners home, the apartment is very private and quiet. If we ever need to stay in Howick again there’s no question we would love to stay at Fiona’s again.

Everything which we needed was provided. Beautiful garden. Would definitely stay here again and recommend to family and friends.

Very comfortable little place with a ton of nice little touches like artwork, good appliances, comfortable outdoor seating. Very close to the beach and the estuary. Even if you aren't a dog person, the dogs are so well behaved and quiet, they occasionally will visit you and you can give them a pat if you like.

I had such a great experience at Linda and Al's place! They offered free upgrade from unit downstairs to upstairs lodge, it was clean and cozy, with all the essentials we needed. The location was perfect—super close to Orewa shops, which made it easy to get around. Linda and Al was incredibly welcoming and responsive, making sure we had everything we needed and even offered us late check out. I’d definitely stay here again on my next trip! Thanks for such a memorable stay! :)

We had a truly wonderful stay at Julie’s villa in Coromandel. The place was spotlessly clean, incredibly comfortable, and had such a homely feel that we instantly felt at ease. Julie was a fantastic host—welcoming, thoughtful, and easy to communicate with. Everything we needed was provided, and the peaceful surroundings made for a perfect getaway. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would happily return. Highly recommend!

The place is a lovely, quiet and restful with a beautiful view. Very clean and plenty of room. We had a really relaxed time and would definitely come back again.

Great space within walking distance to some wonderful restaurants. The outdoor space is fantastic!

Fantastic place with fantastic hosts! The place was everything we expected it to be, very comfortable and Jodi communicated with us very well! 10/10

We booked late after our plans changed and Rowena was so gracious to have us stay. Plenty of room and amenities for a couple of people; nice private space with an outdoor area for the warmer weather. Google Maps didn't do a great job getting us there but it wasn't hard to follow the instructions provided. AND some wonderful, local coffee was left for a press in the morning. I would highly recommend!

Awesome place, private and quiet, and only a short drive from the Mount. Carla is a great host with super clear instructions 😁

A warm and inviting bach with lovely hosts. Nicely designed and well kitted-out with everything you need. Highly recommended.

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.

A dream place away from home, it felt like staying with family. Lovely cosy and with every possible treat and consideration for a guest. There were so many treasures that you find every time you open something. Our kitten also enjoyed the space and felt very included. Thank you for your kindness! We will return someday 💜

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!

A very nice place to stay, very clean and comfortable. We loved it!

Our stay at Tahi Totara was an absolutely wonderful experience. Suzie and Murray were delightful and welcoming hosts and we were delighted to have the chance to enjoy some time in their little piece of paradise. Highly recommended 👌

Great stay thanks Paul. Kitchenette & Ensuite catered well to our needs. Ran out of time to have a swim in the pool but it looked lovely. Thanks again

This place is a delight, Trevor and Lynda clearly love hosting people as they have thought of everything that you might need. The accommodation is to a very high quality, and the grounds are magnificent. We loved meeting Billie and Toby too, they bring pure joy to the stay.

Had a fabulous and quiet stay. Very comfortable and nice to have a bit of room to spread out. Richard was responsive to questions. Having off street parking was appreciated.

Highly recommend staying here. Amanda is a friendly and responsive host and the place has everything you need for a great stay. Great location close to the beach too!

Amazing place to stay, I'd highly recommend this place to anyone, it was super clean and was modern but with a classic look. The views were amazing, we really enjoyed petting all the horses

Alex was a great host and so accommodating. I stayed at the property with my Hockey team that participated in a hockey tournament in Albany and the home was close to everything we needed. He was very responsive and helpful which made the stay even better for our team.

A lovely cottage, lovely decor, very clean, with a great shower. Having breakfast provided was fantastic. The welcome chocolates were a nice touch too. Definately will stay again.
