House vacation rentals in Doubtless Bay

It is not 5 star accommodation but it did not say it was. It was clean and things worked. Great value for a group of friends travelling. 2 night stay sitting on the deck in the evening, the view of the falls and below was great. We ate at the manor a couple of minutes' walk away and enjoyed Karoke. Second night we made dinner. What was important to us? a) 8 of us can stay together b) keeping cost down c) clean. We will come back in again on the next trip in 2026.

They are kind and lovely people. We had had wonderful experiences. Thank you so much.

Amazing, spacious and absolutely spotless accommodation with sea view! We’d come back anytime. Totally recommendable!

This home is awesome, so close to everything and has everything you need. Unfortunately, the pool heating wasn't playing ball but we were able to take advantage of the spa.

We had an amazing stay! Rodd was incredibly professional and made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. The house is absolutely stunning and looks exactly like the pictures. The amenities provided truly elevated the experience as we had everything we could possibly need at our fingertips. My family and I had so much fun as there's so much to do, and all of the amenities are in amazing condition. Thank you Rodd for being so accomodating! Highly recommend and would stay here again!

We had a great stay at Christinne’s place… she was very helpful, gave us some great recommendations and the accommodation was perfect! Very clean, very spacious and an amazing location. 10/10 will come again

very friendly host with lots of advice on sights to visit. accommodation was private, clean and peaceful. I would highly recommend staying here.

Fantastic location and amazing place. Perfect for our stay. Will definitely be recommending to others. Thanks

A wonderful place to stay for views and accommodation. The technology and infrastructure were a little dated e.g window fixed mosquito nets were tatty and/or tricky to operate on a couple of windows, but this was a small price to pay for the magnificence of both the view and the scale of the accommodation itself, as everything else worked well and met/exceeded all of our needs. As a result we would definitely stay again and recommend, as it made the last week of our holiday absolutely fantastic! We loved the remoteness but easy accessibility to Russell which was beautiful, and access to our own private beach was a bonus, although a trip to Long beach, around the headland is a must, it’s an awesome place to swim! Kelly was really helpful and friendly too 😁

Beautiful views. Excellent accommodation & fast n friendly communicating. Highly recommend. Thank you.

Diane is an excellent host. Great communication at all times. Accommodation was perfect with no issues at all. Can highly recommend Diane and her property!!

This was a great stop on our way to Cape Reinga. Sorry we couldn't stay longer as there is so much to see and do nearby. Certainly worth a couple of nights if you can...

We had a fantastic time at Margaret’s place in Kerikeri. The place was spotless, well-equipped, and had a cozy, welcoming vibe. The location was perfect—close to local cafes, shops, and stunning nature spots. The host was incredibly friendly and responsive. Highly recommend to anyone visiting the Bay of Islands!

Blown away by location and beautifully presented home, complete with all the bells and whisltes. Loved that we had access to plenty of beach toys, games and books. Did not need a thing. Felt right at home after travelling 800kms. Perfect size for a big whanau who love the beach. The sunrises and sunsets are stunning.

We had a wonderful stay at Tracy’s place, who kept in contact with us throughout our stay in case we needed anything! The place had everything we needed and more 😊 We especially loved the table tennis which kept us busy during the stormy and rainy days 😊 We can highly recommend staying here! Elisa & Co.

We had a lovely peaceful few days here to start our family adventure in New Zealand. We arrived very jet lagged but were easily able settle into the comfortable apartment and all slept well. Breakfasts were enjoyed on the deck looking at the Point and down to the water. Birds sang all day. It’s a quick drive to Russell (decent coffee and friendly at Hellhole). We stayed very local, walking a couple of easy tracks and swimming in the calm sandy bay at the bottom of the road. The highlight of the trip was heading out in the evening with Douglas to kiwi spot. Our daughters really wanted to see a kiwi in the wild and this was the reason we booked to stay here. Douglas was very generous with his time and knowledge. When kiwi eluded us we went out another time. We did, when we had just about given up hope, find a kiwi and it will be a life long memory for us all. Douglas, and his brother William who lives below were kind and responsive hosts. We thoroughly recommend!

We had a really peaceful and enjoyable stay at Seabreeze. It’s in a fabulous location with shops and restaurants within walking distance. The property is lovely and quiet. I could have stayed much longer. Thank you.

Incredible spot overlooking the ocean and Cavalli Islands. House is really well laid out for a mixed age group with one bedroom and lounge area seperate from main living. Plenty of parking and room for the boat, fishing was excellent! Great stay for a week.

awesome place, so quiet and close to everything

Spectacular views. Long beach walks within a stone’s throw. Sun all day on the veranda & beautiful sunsets!

Kay's place was perfect for a couple of night's getaway. She was a very quick communicator and everything was as expected. She kindly left us freshly baked bread, as well as honey and apples from her property. The beds were very comfy and the whole place was well stocked and much more spacious than we expected. Kay's husband James sorted the pizza over for us and we cooked homemade pizzas. The property is private and secluded but just up a driveway from the road. Would highly recommend both the hosts and the property. Would happily stay again or suggest it to friends and family.

Fantastic place. Very well placed for the beaches and only a short drive into Mangonui for restaurants. Very comfortable beds, beautiful bathrooms. Highly recommended.

Great family base for us, and a few steps to the beach

Francine’s house is located at a quiet residential area,five minutes drive to restaurants and shops. the rooms and bathrooms are specious, the deck is overlooking at a beautiful view of the forests very relaxing.Thank you Francie for your prompt response and the late check out. Francie we had a good time at your home however the stairs at the entry were challenging for my husband as he had difficulty going up and down the stairs, not suitable for people with disabilities. I should have checked that out .Highly recommend if the stairs are not an issue.
