Cottage vacation rentals in Hauraki Gulf / Tīkapa Moana

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

This was the perfect spot to relax, unwind and spend time together as a couple. There was plenty of things to do and all the little details made it the perfect getaway for us.

Peaceful stay right in the trees! This was such an epic Airbnb - so cozy and homey while also being very well equipped with everything you need. Beautifully and thoughtfully decorated and the spa was such a bonus. Stayed 3 nights here and wish I could have stayed longer - would definitely stay again if in the area. Mark was very kinda and quick to respond.

Perfect getaway for relaxing. So peaceful and nice views. Hot tub, and everything you need for enjoying. Really recommend this place for relaxation and escaping from every day life

Lovely place to stay and perfect to come back to after a full day hike.

Such a relaxing stay. Hot tub was a perfect place to unwind and watch the stars. Very peaceful and private! The place has very thing you need for a comfortable and cozy stay. Would recommend to anyone! We are excited to visit again :)

Great location, private walkway to the beach! Couldn get any better. Such an awesome cosy Bach. Easy check in and great communication! Thank you so much!! Would definitely stay here again!

Lovely place. My team were very happy staying there. Great communication from the hosts. Thanks so much. A+

Great spot on the hill with views down to the caves, well set up and the deck overlooking the fruit tree was really nice.

Gayle's place is beautiful and secluded. Great private deck to relax and enjoy Harbour view. A short drive to Tutukaka marina which was convenient for our diving trip. We had one small problem with hot water and Gayle resolved it super quickly after messaging her. A great host, and very responsive with messages.

The house provided us a peaceful retreat from the city. Our family and friends enjoyed a pleasant stay from Paul’s lovely house! Highly recommended :)

Fantastic views and space for the price! This is perfect for all types of occasions with a group of family or friends. The host was responsive and we were given clear instructions on everything regarding to the house, check in, directions, recycling, etc! Highly recommended!

Host was very responsive and friendly. House was lovely and clean. Lovely spot next to the stream. Definitely recommend. Thankyou

Great little house with everything we needed. Short walk to the beach and some great places for brunch. Loved we could take our dog

Great location, very quiet, peaceful, had everything we needed. We enjoyed sitting on the front patio and watching the sun set and birds and even a couple bunnies. House was very quiet and a great size for our family of three.

Kia ora Josie and Graeme, It has been a very healing moment this stay here at Baylys Beach. We live at Maketū Beach, where we see the sun rise and set each day so the bach felt right at home! So many special extras, thank you for every little well-thought-out detail! Will definitely return in the Springtime. To learn the connection between the Ramsey and Flavell families is special. Thank you for the photo you generously gifted to our whānau. All the best, Jade and Joe.

This place was even better than my expectations. This was my first Air bnb stay and Alex has set the bar really high for any other properties I may visit in the future. Kahu's View is quiet, the view is amazing both day and night, and the cottage is well set up. The bed is so comfy. No hesitations what so ever to stay here again.

Great place to stay for riding in the red woods. Bike lockup was fantastic.

Rob did a phenomenal job making sure we felt welcomed. His place was clean and he provided a binder filled with recommendations for activities to do. Would highly recommend!

We had a great stay and look forward to staying again. Really quiet, loved being able to sleep with the windows open and hear the waves at the beach. The cottage was spotless, beds were comfortable, lovely and private. The grounds are lovely. Ferry Landing is just gorgeous. There is a really strong feeling of a small friendly community. Very very safe place to stay. I'm besotted with the ferry, only a two minute easy walk down the road, jump on and pay on board ($8 return) and you are over in Whitianga within ten minutes. The ferry runs every 10 minutes. Thanks so much for the warm welcome and great holiday John.

What a stay! We absolutely loved our week, it was the perfect location for relaxing strolls along the beach and completely disconnecting from the world. The place was well appointed, had what we needed and was a pleasure to stay at. Bonus - the water pressure in the shower was fantastic!

Absolutely loved this beautiful cottage. Small home, immaculately clean and surrounded by beautiful gardens and a white picket fence. Very quiet. Could hear the birds. Our only neighbor was an avocado orchard. Very peaceful and private. simon was very helpful and responsive. His directions to the house were very useful and we found it easily.

Wonderful stay, so glad we've already booked to stay again. Matt & Tanya we're extremely responsive and helpful, its like messaging friends. Would highly recommend.

We had a wonderful stay, it was the perfect base to do all the things on our list at Waihi Beach. Everything was spotlessly clean and we had all the things we could need, a great little home away from home.
