Getaway on Miro

VinayRating, 5 stars3 months ago

Fantastic location and an amazing host. Jess’s beautiful house is nestled in a small cluster of houses surrounding a little lake. We were fortunate that weather played a good part adding to the joy of visiting the Skywaka and walks around the town . Jess was very helpful and prompt as a host . It’s going to be a certain repeat in winters😊

The Penultimate Ride

IsabelleRating, 5 stars1 month ago

We enjoyed our time in Ohakune. The place was great with a fully equipped kitchen, washing machine and dryer. We missed a bit that it doesn't have wifi. Additionally, it would get quite cold inside during the nights and also days when the sun wasn't shining. There are heaters but the warmth just went up to the upstairs bedroom and it remained quite cold downstairs. On the other side there were a lot of warm blankets so it was okay.

Mountain luxury on Magnolia

4.93 out of 5 average rating, 74 reviews1 week ago

This place was perfect for our stay! We had 6 people and there was plenty of space for everyone. It's located in a quiet neighborhood, just a 10-minute walk from town. Jason and Serena were incredibly helpful and made everything easy. Highly recommend this spot for families!

Sunset Delight

4.9 out of 5 average rating, 59 reviews6 days ago

A truly wonderful home to stay in…..easily accommodated our family of four adults and two children. The views are spectacular and an easy walk down to the beach and playground. The distance from Whanganui City is a quick 10 minute drive away…and so much to do and see in Whanganui and adjoining area. Highly recommend this property.

Modern Miro Park Mansion

4.9 out of 5 average rating, 67 reviews3 months ago

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful and well-equipped property. The house was spotless, cozy, and perfectly located—close to town yet peaceful with stunning views. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen had everything we needed, and the outdoor area was great for relaxing. One highlight was the spa pool—a great addition to the property. However, the water felt a bit over-chlorinated, which meant we couldn’t stay in for more than 10 minutes at a time. That’s just a small detail in an otherwise perfect stay, and I’m sure it’s something that can be easily adjusted. Overall, we highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Ohakune. It’s a wonderful spot, and we would happily return in the future!

Norfolk Cottage

4.92 out of 5 average rating, 61 reviews5 days ago

We loved our stay at Rob's place. It was quiet, private and cosy with good kitchen amenities and pantry staples, a comfy bed and enough space to gather in the loungeroom for a bit of TV watching. Rob was a very kind host and offered thd use of their clothes dryer if needed due to the weather forecast being a bit wet. Rob gave us some great reccommendations for places to visit and eat. His daughter brought us freshly picked fejoas from their tree which was lovely. Thanks for having us, Rob.

The place feels just like a home. Move in ready for a lovely stay. Plenty of comfy space inside and out. Can’t beat the beautiful view over the estuary and walkable to local shops and restaurants. Country’s most beautiful beach just a short walk away. Kathleen was a great host, very friendly, helpful and responsive.

Quiet 1 bedroom Cabin with free parking

4.82 out of 5 average rating, 76 reviews1 month ago

The cabin was spacious, the bed very comfortable (with electronically adjustable head and foot positions), and the shower pressure was great. Jenni was an excellent host responding in a very accommodating manner to a late change in rhe booking, and even offered to drive me to the music festival that I was attending in town.

Brand spanking since 2023 Chalet views

4.97 out of 5 average rating, 31 reviews1 week ago

Great house and nice location too. Quiet but still handy to town. Loved the views and the outdoor bath is a nice touch. Owner was easy to deal with. The weather was not the best at time while we were there so it was great to have a nice place to relax in. Would recommend and would stay again.

Cosy Cottage With Spa & Fireplace

4.83 out of 5 average rating, 12 reviews3 months ago

The home was clean, comfortable and perfect for our family of 3’s needs. We enjoyed our stay and definitely would reconsider if we were to visit again. Property managers were responsive, helpful and gracious. One minor issue - we felt that ‘there were too many rules’ - this didn’t take away from our overall strongly positive impression, however. Walkable distance to the town and good options for meals - The Cypress Tree and Osteria Ohakune were excellent.

Couples Retreat Spa Cabin

5 out of 5 average rating, 4 reviews1 month ago

What a beautiful peaceful setting. The lack of wifi and internet connection added to the restfulness. The spa pool was such a treat in the evenings. The outdoor shower provided a warm shower and was a unique experience. An absolutely lovely getaway, very closely situated to Palmerston North. Would absolutely recommend of you want a bit of an off-grid experience!

Taylor’s Place

JulietRating, 5 stars3 days ago

We had a great time in Whanganui with lots to do over the school hols. While we weren’t in the house very much, it was comfortable and very well appointed for our group from 11 to 82! The backyard and games room are excellent for families.

Two bedroom house near to town

JewelleRating, 5 stars1 month ago

House was well equipped and very spacious.Lovely large back and front gardens.Bus stop nearby but not many buses so we used taxis into town and back. Host was very helpful on the two occasions I called her. There were only 2 of us but would be great for a family. We enjoyed our stay.
