Beachfront vacation rentals in Rocky Bay / Whakanewha Bay

Had a great stay. Everything was just as described. Great location with beach just a short walk away. Huge backyard for our pups. Clean, lots of room, all the supplies you need.

This was a wonderful stay in a beautiful property with a fantastic host. Nothing was too much trouble, super responsive. What a great experience!

Michael was the host that we worked with and he was wonderful!! He was very responsive, friendly and gave us great recommendations! We really enjoyed our stay!!

Very happy with our stay. All the amenities we could need and a lovely private location a stones throw from the beach. This went down well with our 3yo boy who had Onetangi beach on his back door for the weekend. Enjoyed listening to the waves at night and an added bonus that we could bring our dog too. Unfortunately there were some very noisy neighbour's who we think were guests at another Airbnb, December is a busy time of year on the island but we still had a wonderful stay regardless.

Thoughtful hosts, wonderful property

Fabulous stay in Maraetai - thank you Tina! Perfect location across from the jetty, playground and next door to the coffee shop. Great space to enjoy our family gathering. Awesome front lawn to play games and people watch.

Amazing place to stay, especially when you ho with family having kids. They have all amenities you need. The area is quiet and peaceful, beautiful view looking out to the beach, beautiful. even when it's raining. I reckon I got good price for what it offers in this area. 2min drive from my ferry terminal so no worry about being late. Lovely and very responsive host.

We had a lovely stay at Bruce and Karen’s place. The property is only meters from the beach and in a very quiet area. Walking distance from Devonport (20min) but only minutes from local cafes and restaurants. Their place was clean and comfortable, with the main bedroom downstairs and the living area / extra bedroom upstairs, complete with a view of Rangitoto and the bay. Would definitely come back!

The host was incredibly helpful throughout my stay, always available to answer any questions or provide recommendations for things to do in the area. The place itself was spacious, clean, and tidy - everything I could ask for in an Airbnb. The amenities were top-notch, and the decor was modern and stylish. I felt right at home as soon as I arrived. The location was also perfect - with nearby transport available, it was easy to explore the surrounding area. All in all, I would highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone looking for a comfortable, convenient, and enjoyable stay. It's definitely worth the price, and I would happily return in the future. Thank you to the host for a wonderful experience!

Great family stay for three generations. Local beaches are close by and all amenities you could need are not far by car. Shops for essentials are within easy walking distance. Something to do in all weathers

Suyun was a great host and was very responsive in communications. We had a problem with one of the locks and he was extremely quick to respond and to bring someone over to fix the issue. The house has a beautiful lounge with a great view for relaxing.

We enjoyed our stay at Fred's Place . It was in a great location a lovely well equipped unit . There is a lovely private courtyard . Fred provided extra touches including breakfast ingredients and hot cross buns . Would definitely recommend staying there .

David’s place was warm and homely. He was a very responsive and flexible host allowing us to push our booking back a day when our travel plans were impacted by the cyclone. Tidy house in a great location. I missed having a washing machine as my kids go through heaps of clothes every day however I believe guests can use the washing machine in the garage if you are staying for more than a few days.

Tina and I love that Mariette said hi and made sure we got in OK. The place was an amazing break for our busy lives running gyms. We loved it so much that we do want to come again soon. thanks again!

We loved the bay view with gorgeous early morning lighting and sunset lighting and beautiful sailboats anchored in the bay. We saw dolphins swimming across the bay from the deck. Shelly Beach was lovely, and shelly. We enjoyed our hikes and the local wineries. Sue could not have been more helpful to us. We'll be back!

Highly recommend staying at Rosie's home. It is located at the top of a peninsula, surrounded by lovely homes with ocean views and lush native bush. So quiet and private. The hot tub was a real treat. Had all the amenities one needs for cooking and a great outdoor table for enjoying leisurely meals. Very easy walk down a track to Palm Beach, Arcadia, cafe, bottle store and bus stop.

We loved staying at Haley’s place. She was super helpful getting us checked in as I had totally failed to download the instructions prior to our arrival. The space feels very private and has a walking trail to a nice park and swimming beach. The bed is very comfortable. The tranquil atmosphere of the unit made it feel like a home away from home
