The Bird's Nest, Purakanui Dunedin City
What a wonderful wee kiwi bach! Really cosy with a fire and comfy atmosphere. Absolutely stunning view of the water and hills. Lots of great nearby beaches and walks. Highly recommend The Birds Nest in Purakaunui

Arches Cottage. Free Hot tub No cleaning fee
A very comfortable home away from home, and lovely location.

Alpine Hideaway - 2 bedrooms
We enjoyed staying in a cozy space that was just a few minutes drive outside of town.

Catlins Coastal Hideaway, The Catlins, South Otago
Michelle and Cameron's place belongs in an episode of "Grand Designs." It is outstanding in every regard. Absolute peace and beauty. Magnificent views and an isolated long beach all to yourself. You'll want for nothing. Michelle is a very warm and responsive host as well.

Rollesby
Lovely, peaceful cottage with beautiful mountain views. The king bed was super comfy, and everything was clean and well-equipped. Great spot for a quiet, nature-filled getaway.

Harbourside Studio Apartment 'seven'
Funky little annexe to stay in. Loved the welcome basket of freshly baked bread and eggs. It was a chilly week in Dunedin but the heater in bedroom did the job to make it cosy. Kerry was very welcoming and friendly. Had a great bike ride on the cycle path. Would like to stay in summer next time.

Wanaka Cottage
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.

Organic Oasis.
Great B&B, if you want to experience New Zealand country life, you should come and stay here. Worth recommending!

Birdsong Cottage
We love staying at Rose’s Cottage. From the moment you walk in you feel at home. The Cottage is comfortable, warm, well equipped, welcomes our small dog and has the most comfortable bed. This was our second stay at Rose’s Cottage and we look forward to staying again

Chrystalls Beach
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.

Creagh Cottage, mountain getaway
Photos don’t do the view justice. Jeremy was a great host. This is a cabin type experience. We stayed in the winter and used the cottage as a home base for skiing and other activities which was great. Quick ride over to Arrowtown and Queenstown but far away enough to feel private and peaceful. Some important points regarding previous reviews I read about the place being “cold”…the ground floor is all slate stone…as Jeremy recommended, just bring some sandals or slippers to wear around. There is a large heat pump, a lovely pot belly stove, and space heaters and all the beds have blanket heaters which we actually didn’t use because they were too hot…so it’s easy to stay warm and the view and coziness are well worth it, but if you’re expecting a thermostat in a hotel room that you set and leave…this wouldn’t be the place for you. We loved our stay and the host was very responsive.

Snowshoe Cottage
Clare’s place was fantastic. So so well appointed with everything you could possibly need - it was so well considered. The location was stunning and perfect for a chilled cosy weekend in front of the log burner. Instructions for check in and the house itself were super easy to follow and Clare was brilliant for communication. Highly recommend adding on the spa pool for a relaxing soak overlooking a gorgeous view.

Brighton Beach Bach
Cosy, homely, cute 🌸 Just didn’t have an oven to heat up dinner , I should have read list properly 🤣 Beach walk stunning Next time 2 nights 👍 Thanks a mill

Wander Lodge - Cosy cottage in the forest.
Beautiful private lodge in the middle of farm and mountains. Husband and me had a great time using the space. lots of firewood and Kindle for fireplace, great kitchen and BBQ. pizza oven didn't seem to catch the wood on fire maybe because of the outside temperature but other then that a stunning air bnb

'The Cottage' at Patearoa, Central Otago
We loved staying at the Cottage. It was cosy, decorated in a modern yet sympathetic style. The host left fresh baking to welcome us, along with other farm fresh goods for our use. Wonderful all round!

Family Cottage at Longbourne Lodge (sleeps 7)
We were greeted and taken to the accommodation. Peter was great explained easiest way to town. When my mum left her walking stick behind Peter contacted us immediately. We had a wonderful night an the scenery was beautiful.

Fox's Retreat, Arrowtown
We adore Fox's Retreat. It is, without a doubt, our favourite Airbnb experience in New Zealand, and we'll visit as often as possible in the future. The location is perfect. The Arrowtown Autumn Festival should be on everyone's bucket list.

★★★ Arrowtown Charming Cottage ★★★
This is the second time we have stayed here and we really enjoy it. We love the fireplace and the close proximity to everything we need in Arrowtown. We would definitely love to go back!

Seabreeze Cottage, by the ocean in Brighton, Otago
Enjoyed our time at Janet’s cottage which was warm and cozy. A bonus to have electric blankets provided for all beds given the dipping temperatures. Thanks again for letting us stay at your place!

World Famous! Sunny Dunedin house. Free parking.
Such a gorgeous wee cottage and so well stocked with everything you could need. We loved this place!

"Cherry Cottage" A touch of class in Cromwell
Picturesque and cozy cabin in the perfectly central location. We loved our time there and will be back again sometime!

"REHUA" New cottage - Burke's Pass - Tekapo
We had a great stay at Damion's place. Really nice space in a stunning location with a lot of space in and around the house. We got snowed in with the road closed, but Damion kept us updated and a friendly neighbour checked in on us to make sure we are okay. Overall great and smooth experience, thank you very much.

Kawarau Cottage. Riverfront, Felton Rd Bannockburn
Really enjoyed my stay. Beautiful setting and appreciated the little extra touches and supplies. Will definitely return Thanks

VILLA LANE
Absolutely one of my favourite air bnb’s I’ve stayed in. Jenny has literally thought of everything and it’s incredibly well equipped. Cute, cosy, clean with the comfiest bed 😍 Thanks for having us!
