Barrons on the Beach

HanaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

Perfect location at Ahuriri on the waterfront. We had a small issue with a door lock that Kerry resolved immediately and when we came back from our bike ride. The door lock had been fixed and sorted. A comfortable house with plenty of space, and good water pressure for the showers. Great dry comfy beds and easy walking distance to Ahuriri restaurants, bars and shops. A perfect place for a girls weekend away. Thanks Annette and Kerry for such a lovely stay.

Pals Cottage on Westshore Beach

KasiaRating, 5 stars3 months ago

We adored our stay! The cottage was pristine. The location is great. It is right across a quiet stretch of beach and walking distance from a great playground. It is very close to the airport but recent upgrades meant we couldn't hear the planes from inside the house. Our little one was obsessed with watching the planes take off. What really set this place apart was how thoughtful and kind the hosts were. We have a baby and toddler and the hosts brought toys for the kids to play with. The kids had the best time!

OrenRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

We greatly enjoyed our time at Caleb's house. Beautiful modern home with all the necessary amenities. Great art on the walls, super spacious, and set in a quiet location. Caleb was really great with his communication, which helped to make our stay so enjoyable. We have stayed in many Airbnb places over the years and Caleb's place would definitely rate in the top 5! Thanks, Caleb!

Napier: Spacious Hilltop Home with Ocean Views

DavidRating, 5 stars1 week ago

Lovely private home with an amazing view over Napier. Beds were super comfy and the home was set high on the hill with amazing little, fruit, veggie and herb gardens. Pick the time right and you could pick yourself some amazing looking Avo’s too. Monty (the cat) was the standout though!

Relax to the sea panorama and sound of the surf

We had the most wonderful 3 nights in Napier at Derek’s place. We got to spend time as a family in the most perfect location! The place had an amazing view of the bay while being a very short walk into town. Would definitely stay again if we are back in Napier

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!

Cliffside Cottage, Kairakau beach house

4.91 out of 5 average rating, 81 reviews1 month ago

Fantastic house nestled under the stunning cliffs and just a short walk away from beautiful Kairakau beach. This was our second stay here and it was another wonderful stay. There is plenty of room in the house for 3 couples with lovely big living/dining areas and a spacious kitchen, and having three bathrooms is a real luxury. Stephanie was very responsive and helpful. We would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a long weekend escape at the beach with friends or family!

Tango10 Accommodation

5 out of 5 average rating, 21 reviews1 month ago

We booked Jack and Sarah's property for a 2-day strategy workshop, and were not disappointed. The property boasts stunning views, has plenty of bedrooms and beds available for groups, and was perfectly equipped for our needs. The biggest feature we absolutely loved was the private retreat feel close enough to Napier (just under half an hour) however you feel like you're completely away from all the hustle and bustle that comes with a town or city. Every detail in the property is carefully thought out and presented immaculately. Would not hesitate to book again. Highly recommended getaway location.

Charming Retreat

5 out of 5 average rating, 15 reviews4 weeks ago

Apartment is new, sparkling clean, comfortable and well located, walkable distance to Ahuriri and yet tucked in the bush. Hosts were waiting for us to ease our check in as we arrived at night time. And even though there was a misunderstanding from my side they were kind enough to cater for our needs straight away.

Mornington on St Georges: 4 bedroom home.

DianneRating, 5 stars1 month ago

The house was lovely and our group had a very enjoyable stay. Peter met us on arrival and welcomed us and then came and saw us as we were leaving. We had a power cut (very brief) but Peter messaged us straight away to see if we needed any torches. The house had everything we needed and was great for a group of adult. (Would also be a great place to stay with kids - lots of games and outdoor activities. Great big section and plenty of parking. Very secure.

Windsor Grove - Spectacular Home

VickyRating, 5 stars1 month ago

We (4 couples) had a great stay. It was lovely and roomy, had magnificent views and was surrounded in well-cared-for gardens. The pool was a big attraction - it was clean and private and we loved the garden around it. We thought we were going to do a lot of activities (climb Mitre Peak, visit a winery, go cycling) but in the end, the house, the beach, the pool and the garden were all we needed. It was a really relaxing holiday!!! Thanks Krissy for being so friendly and helpful.

Sunny Delight in Clive

MarionRating, 5 stars2 months ago

The house is huge. And perfect for us. The garden with the play house, trampoline and all the cars was a blast for the kids. Good location for Napier as well as in town itself. Friendly and helpful neighborhood.
