Vacation rentals with a firepit in North Island

Absolutely beautiful place with a gorgeous view of the river. The house is one of those places that makes you feel instantly at home. Sally is an epic host, super responsive and kind.

Mark’s AirBnB is an experience rather than a stay. Is a combination of coastal rural Nz right on the doorstep (short boat ride away) from a bustling town Raglan where there are 5 star restaurants, super markets and everything you would need or expect. And the accomodation itself is nestled on a cliff top with 180 views of the harbour and if Raglan. Private, the feeling of seclusion and neighbour free - the best of both worlds made better by a host that balances your needs with respectful distance. Make a pizza in the wood fired oven and then warm your bones in the spa boat and arching the harbour u til the sun melts away listening to birds evening song. We can’t wait to head back and hopefully catch the big uncle of the 12 lb snapper we caught in the raglan harbour!!! Outstanding place.

It was an absolute joy to be hosted at Mark's whare. It's a home away from home, well taken care of and well loved, but also very beautiful. The Decor is stunning and it was so easeful to stay for a week. We also forgot an important belonging, Mark went out of his way to make sure it was returned. Just a straight up good host.

What an absolutely stunning place. Beautifully located in nature, with a gorgeous little stream flowing through the garden. The house is beautifully designed and fully equipped – everything you might need is there. Truly a fantastic spot. Hosts Scott and George are real superhosts – thoughtful and caring. Thank you for letting us enjoy your little paradise!

Jo was an amazing host, easy to message if need be and made us feel welcome. will be booking again next time i am in auckland. depending on where you do wanna go. $20 uber to the CBD or ponsonby and was a large space for a weekend getaway

We absolutely loved our stay. Nathan was incredibly welcoming and allowed us to use his place for our small wedding ceremony. It was the most amazing day and we really enjoyed our entire stay. Thanks again Nathan!! We will always remember this beautiful space that we held our special day at. ☺️

We loved this place. Great living area for socialising, well equipped kitchen, showers had awesome water pressure, several lovely areas to sit outdoors. Perfect for our family get together with some of us staying onsite and others in the town centre. And later some items we'd left behind were returned to us which we were grateful for.

Great experience. Great place for family . Clean and convenient. Will go back again. Shame had to leave early due to predicted bad weather.

This space is sooooo chill! Lisa & Owen’s Pohutukawa Farm overlooking the sound… can’t beat it. Everything inside is spotless & QUALITY. As an Airbnb Super Host, I’m always impressed when I find new ideas or small little details to add to my listings, & this pad had me very inspired. 5 STARS everything. Beautiful hosts! Thank you kindly!

By far, the best place we have stayed. The hosts have thought of every little detail. You can tell they really care about what they do. Every inch of the accommodation was spotless. Thank you for a wonderful stay. Highly recommended!

Fabulous host - clean apartment and very well stocked

We had a wonderful stay at Shelley’s place the house was exactly as described but even better inside than we expected. We loved having fresh eggs and bread on arrival along with fruit and lots of other goodies. Shelley was so helpful and kind our entire stay and always in touch immediately when we need to ask something. The location is only a 20 min walk into town along the beach or over the the hill depending on the tides. It’s a great place to stay to explore the Bay of Islands!

Great place to stay! Great area to explore and very nice to have a spacious place to come back to. Plenty of good amenities like laundry and espresso machine (2 most important things for us!). Very walkable to beach, local restaurants, hikes, other touristy stuff. Highly recommend!

From stepping onto the property, Wayne and Jihee were beyond helpful and welcoming. From fresh eggs from their chickens to smoothies, they were lovely and welcoming. The place is a little far from the city but I am heaps glad we chose it as the area was peaceful and gorgeous (and their view is stunning)! We spent a will week there and my daughter was upset to go by yge and as she loved it so much. Would 100% recommend!

We had a beautiful stay here, the house was immaculate, the attention to detail was superb Beautiful crisp linen, comfy beds, fantastic communication, can’t fault a thing Would definitely stay again, thanks Shelley

An absolutely wonderful Airbnb - one of the best I’ve ever stayed in. The outside bathtub was an absolute highlight. Greta location to drive up to Abel Tasman for a day as well.

Absolutely amazing! We loved every minute! We didn’t want to leave! Thank you so much for the most amazing place we have stayed in nz! Absolute privilege to be able to stay at such a beautiful place! Thank you so much for your efforts! A+++

Utterly beautiful stay at Corrie’s place. The space is stunning and really thoughtfully put together. Outdoor bath is the icing on the cake! Couldn’t recommend it enough - you won’t be disappointed!

Really enjoyed stay. definitely would come back again. 😌

Rose was an amazing host, topped only by the wonderfully unique experience offered by her seaside cabin! It was a true escape from the mundane, requiring a short drive on unpaved paddocks to access, adding to its charm and authenticity. (When returning after dark, watch up for furry and featherly neighbours!) You are then greeted with a self contained tiny home nestled between Rose's well groomed farm and the untamed ocean. This is a truly secluded retreat with beautiful sunrises over the pacific, dancing birds, meditating goats and endlesdly soothing sounds of crashing waves. The cabin is well equipped with a mini kitchenette (no microwave), heating, luxurious bathroom and cosy bedroom with a beautiful view of the ocean, and external utilities including a fire pit, BBQ and even a canoe (we did not brave it). Rose was an amazing host, greeting us on arrival and teaching us how to access the cabin. Her Sunday only cafe, the Farmshop, is also highly recommended, especially the pizza!

Absolutely breathtaking views sound this gorgeous cabin! It was cozy & comfortable. A highlight was taking the free kayaks for a paddle for more beautiful scenery on the water. Plus a bonus to be greeted by friendly goats on our way through the paddock down to the river. We found the shower tricky to maintain at a comfortable temperature, but that’s not uncommon when living off the grid. We’d absolutely recommend for a special experience!

What a lovely place to stay! Everything is well thought out with awesome little touches of pleasant little surprises! If peaceful, with everything you need to be warm and comfortable- is what you are after - Annette and Weston have done a great job!

What an amazing piece of paradise! Modern and immaculate with everything you need for a private, peaceful and relaxing break. We will be back for sure and can’t recommend Hereford Cottage highly enough.

Lovely tiny house in the middle of nowhere. Generally really well-equipped and -furnished. The location is easy to find thanks to a marker on Google Maps, just make sure to take the correct gate on the right-hand side (it was a bit confusing at dark with two gates right next to each other).
