Cottage vacation rentals in Otago

Jason and Scott are truly Great hosts. Their cottage is amazingly lovely, clean, with a wonderful view and complete amenities. All we need are readily and conveniently available. Instructions are clear, and the place is indeed very guest-friendly. We had a homey and very special experience. The SPA is also a great deal and the view is breathtaking. We will be back, and hopefully longer stay. Thanks to them for sharing their place; we, as a family, just made another priceless memory.

Fabulous cottage. Loved staying here. The bed was super comfortable and the cottage had everything we needed. Everything was clean and well presented. It was all great. Tania was very helpful and friendly.

Nice cottage, however seemed to be next to a number of cottages which were being used for a contracting business with workers trucks and sheds around.

I highly recommend booking the hot tub and having a soak while the sunsets

Kerry’s place is a salve to homogenised accommodation and culture in general. It celebrates creativity, originality and colour! Kerry is a lovely host too. It’s a bit of a hike out of town and you will probably need a car but worth it for something unique.

We spent a lovely weekend in this delightful cottage. The barbeque and spa pool got plenty of action along with the outdoor seating area. Jacqueline and Ash are great hosts and our roast lamb was made even more delicious by the rosemary fresh from the garden. Easy access to Wanaka township and surrounding attractions. Highly recommend and we'd definitely stay again.

Really unique, very peaceful and private, but close to Lake Hawea and Wanaka. We stayed one night and this was perfect for us, to save a day trip from queenstown.

What a fantastic place! From the moment you arrive, the magical experience begins. Soft music plays in the cabin, and you're surrounded by majestic views of the valley and high mountains. Amy and Jason have a remarkable eye for detail. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need to cook a delicious meal, and stargazing from the hot tub is an unforgettable experience. We highly recommend this place—and without a doubt, we'll be coming back again!

I really appreciated the host putting so much love and attention into the house. It really was perfect! After traveling the whole world, this is by far one the most beautiful beaches I have seen. You can see the sea lions from the bedroom window and on a short walk I saw a penguin. While there are little houses next to the property, the neighbors are seldom there. I stayed for a month and saw people maybe two or three times. The rest of the time it felt extremely private. The house is about 25min drive on an unpaved road from Milton. A super tiny town. So if you want to get away, this is the place. What a hidden gem! Super recommended.

cottage is a beautiful, comfortable piece of history, in an amazing seaside location.

Had a great stay at Bee's place. If you want to stay away from town and feel like you(and Family) want to have the whole surroundings to yourself this is a great place. Also, it's not too far away from Wanaka. I will definitely consider booking again

What an awesome spot just beautiful and a good base for traveling around the Mackenzie basin. Great amenities and well set up for families.

Thank you Colin! What a great place to stay after seven days biking. Easy to find and let ourselves in. It was spacious and clean, It was easy to sort out our gear, lovely to cook a home made meal, and the beds comfy. With the decor from the 80's, it was like stepping back into a holiday home we used to visit in Tasmania. Thank you for having the space clean and ready for us and for your communication before and after our stay. Wishing you all the best of family holidays which is what it felt like staying there.

Beautiful view, great location. Intentionally booked because of the step free access which continued throughout the house. Would highly recommend.

Great stay with plenty of room for family of 5. Very clean and had everything we needed. Lovely quiet spot.

We really enjoyed our stay and wish it was for longer! Beautiful, peaceful area. Loved the windows above the bed, and the bed was so comfortable too! Beautiful drive to Lake Tekapo. Look forward to staying again some time in the future

We loved our stay a fave spot. James was super responsive to any query. We loved the location for morning walks and proximity to all the things we wanted to do. Would definitely stay again. A wood burner would be the cherry on top. 🤩🥰

Very cozy house with a lot of family atmosphere

We absolutely loved this unique restored cottage! You could really feel the history and soul of the property, the owner has done an incredible job with the restoration, retaining so much of the original feel whilst seamlessly incorporating modern design and comforts. We have never stayed anywhere like it! Super warm and homely with a unique mix of luxury and history - this property is truly one of a kind. Our only regret is that we couldn't stay longer!

great place to stay. fit all 10 of us in the house. was perfect- close to the pub for our post ultramarathon meal. easy communication with Martina.

We were blown away upon entering the property and seeing the home. Perfect setting and beautiful view from the back of the property. Things got even better upon entering this home with an incredible interior founded on the rock face of the building. We felt like we were transported 100 years back in time while having modern conveniences.

Spotless, quiet home in a beautiful location with all day sun and views. Fiona has set the cottage up very thoughtfully and she was a lovely host to communicate with. This was a perfect stay for us and we didn't want to leave. Highly recommend this little gem.

This cottage was absolutely perfect for our needs! We had our 1 year old with us and wanted a child friendly location near Queenstown but not in the high traffic areas. Not only did this tick those boxes, but it was immaculately clean and beautifully decorated. We were 15min drive from anything we wanted to do and got to enjoy the beauty of the countryside + fresh eggs!!

Irwin Cottage is gorgeous! It was spotlessly clean, and had everything we needed. The bed was very comfortable. We will be back.
