Holiday or work space close to walks & city
The location at Wendy’s place is excellent - an easy walk to town and restaurants. It was perfect for us, 2 couples travelling together. We enjoyed the 2 restaurants and the Beat breakfast place that Wendy recommended. The pantry items, milk, etc, were much appreciated on arrival + the little welcoming chocolates placed with the bath towels - a nice touch. Great information for Christchurch available in the house. We highly recommend Wendy’s place.
Family-friendly home rentals with a kitchen

"Home away from Home" - warm, sunny, welcoming.
This is possibly the best airbnb experience I've had. Keryn was not only very friendly and responsive, she bakes cookies which she leaves out for her guests and has more food stocked for free use than any other airbnb I've been in. I most highly recommend a stay here.

Maison Rouge
We stayed here for a week and it really felt like home for us. The house was perfect and had everything we wanted if not more! The kitchen was fully equipped with everything you needed. It was a warm comfortable home. We loved the decor and art pieces. The street was nice and quiet, it was a good area with the supermarket just around the corner. It was our first experience using Airbnb and after staying here , it is an option we will use again when travelling. If we have the chance we would definitely stay here again, perfect home for our family holiday. Thanks Danielle x

Rustic Cabin
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Fiona’s gorgeous little slice of native bush paradise, and well most definitely be visiting again! Thanks again for your hospitality, Fiona.

Rooms with a view in Christchurch
Carol and John are very nice, friendly hosts. Very welcoming and helpful with advice on walking tracks, things to see, and places to eat. A lovely place to stay, with a nice garden area with a view, through french doors. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend.

Private Self Contained great reviews. Long Stay👍
Had a Lovely few days at Peter & Robyn's unit..was greeted by Peter who was welcoming & gracious. The unit was very clean, spacious modern & well equipped with some nice touches including a washing machine & chocolate. Our unit was secure with an electric gate & a cute fluffy dog. Amenities within walking distance & had a stylish bar & eatery Coasters 5 mins around the corner that served great food & drinks. Highly recommend & hope to return. Lovely friendly hosts

Back House of Papanui
Excellent well appointed home with all the added extras that make your stay just that much better. Perfect for a larger group with 4 bedrooms. Fully equipped kitchen and great living space opening out to an outdoor deck. Close to Northlands shopping mall. Would definitely stay again if we had the chance.

Merivale Native Garden BnB Studio
Jo was a friendly, wonderful hostess, offering to drive us to the International Antarctic Centre and giving us shopping recommendations.There are lots of Ubers in the vicinity and getting into the city was easy. We dined at Spice Paragon and Cassel's at the Tannery, both great choices. Jo has a cat named Ella (I think) and she is friendly as well. This spot is walkable to the Merivale shopping area and also to Riverside Market if you really want to stretch your legs.

Entwhistle Cottage - central city
Our first time at a Air BNB, awesome quaint cottage with great story behind it. Perfect for 2 adults and 2 teens. Central to everything we needed, clean, warm and comfy. Lovely street, quiet at night. We had a great time and would stay again in a heart beat.

Modern spacious lifestyle block home
Tom and Kat were amazing hosts! Great communication plus our arrival was seamless. Their property/house was absolutely stunning and was perfect for our stay. If we are ever in Christchurch again we will be staying here.

Land Sea Adventure
We have just had the most incredible holiday staying at Anji’s place in Cass Bay. The location was so peaceful and serene. The house was perfect for our family of four (teenage children) and our doggie Morphy. It was the most relaxing and restorative holiday we’ve had as a family. Lots of sleeping in, reading books, playing board games, swimming in the bay, walking to Lyttelton, kayaking, BBQs and blissing out in the spa pool. Thank you so much Anji :)

City Paradise CabbageTree Retreat & excl tours
This is a lovely and very functional place with a laundry and hot tub! Linda and Vicky both are great hosts. We'd go back in a flash.

Birdsong Lodge
Had an increadible time staying in Birdsong, Tanya was incredibly accommodating, warm and friendly. The home was beautiful and surpassed our expectations! Very tranquil, relaxing, cozy atmosphere. Even more increadible than in the photos! Couldn't fault the experience and would love to come again in the future, definately a must do. Highly recommend :)

Karl Popper Retreat
Michael's property matched all descriptions perfectly. Communication had been great through check in all the way to check out. The property is located high up on Cashmere hills which unfortunately was out of scooter operating zone. You'll definitely need a car or Uber to get to the house. Overall, the property met our expectations and we had a comfortable stay.
