Family-friendly vacation rentals in Porirua

Beautiful house with amazing views. Clean and tidy. Well organized with all facilities. Enjoyed staying here. Simon is very friendly host and communication is easy. Highly recommend this place.

Thank you Tania. Absolutely perfect for my daughter and I. We are country lovers so this couldn’t have been better for us. Loved looking at the horses out the window / door. Loved the sounds of the birds in the evening and the morning. I got a little confused finding the cottage at first as I went up the left driveway to the main house, not the right driveway. But was able to get hold of Tania promptly and she was able to redirect me. This is a beautiful rustic type cottage with the space really well thought out. I didn’t mind the kitchenette in the bathroom. Obviously as long as you keep everything sanitary as you use it it’s not an issue. Kind of the same situation if you were to stay in a caravan everything is close together amenities wise. Was nice and warm and super cosy. Would absolutely stay here again. Thanks so much for your kind, friendly and inviting hospitality.

Thank you Natalie for allowing us to stay in the tree house. What an wonderful experience, nice and cozy bed and only few steps away from the common facilities.

Fabs’ guesthouse was absolutely what we needed - perfect for a weekend getaway to relax and unwind. Set among beautiful gardens with a spa pool. We recommend.

From a host perspective, Huong was very responsive, flexible and accommodating to our needs. We had a group of 10 staying at this location and it was unique and allowed us to stay together for a family wedding. In general, the place was as described. There were a handful of maintenance and cleaning items that could have been improved, but these did not distract from our stay at all. We had a large group and the garbage/recycling was a bit of a challenge without a vehicle the first few days, but we managed that too. The home is distinct and one of a kind, with rich history. The long drive was a great test for us and Uber drivers alike!! The grounds provide its own opportunity to explore and do some hiking and such. The views are incredible. I appreciate the opportunity to stay here. I understand the property remains for sale and look forward to see how this unfolds.

The family loved staying here! Local to lots of great places, was a lovely home and very peaceful.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The house is super clean, modern, tidy and has new appliances and so on. It felt quiet and private and has a big back yard and off street parking. Our host were communicative and responsive, and check in was super easy.

Great little place to stay, we were fortunate with fantastic weather to really appreciate the views. Parking is tight, but we were in a big ute, not a little town car. Great place, nice and clean.

less than 5 mins drive from beach. Quiet and is a home away from home. lovely cafe around the corner. close to all kapiti coast beaches and short commute to Wellington. great kitchen with all the utensils and good BBQ. Beds were comfy. highly recommend a stay here.

A beautiful place to stay where we were surrounded by nature and enjoyed a peaceful and relaxing couple of days.

A great, secluded, but conveniently accessible spot. Parking was simple on a quiet street. Close to Barden Gate for diving and cycling missions and just a short walk to the wharf to catch the ferry to Wellington CBD. Perfect for what we wanted, will definitely look for this place again when we visit next.

Beautiful location. Had a restful stay after our ferry.

A fabulous location close to city ferry, beaches and bush walks. Also easy walks to cafes and shops. We loved the privacy, the fenced courtyard so our dog was safe and a very comfortable bed. We appreciated the washing machine as we were there for a more extended stay, everything we needed to make simple meals, and space to work as well as relax. We highly recommend and will be back ourselves!

Isabelle was a great host. Showed us the local trails and shared with us about the area. The place was simple and clean and perfect for us for the days we spent there. Highly recommend staying if you like being close to nature and quiet surroundings.

What a beautiful house, definitely felt very Wellington! Love the area, loved the house, gave us a flavour of being a local. Kit was helpful and responsive. Thank you for having us!

We have the very best regard for Ellen's studio and we stay often.

We had a great stay here. The house is lovely and has great views over the water. We had our own car and access to all parts of Wellington was easy. We’re quite a bit fitter for the walk up the stairs each day, but the cable car access is great also.

Margaret’s place at Marsden Village is in a good location for visiting Wellington. There’s parking right beside the house and shops nearby. This very well furnished and supplied residence would be perfect for a longer stay with a study, laundry, extremely well equipped kitchen, beautiful bedrooms and bathrooms. It feels very private and the furnishings are high quality. It has 3 levels so quite a few stairs. Margaret was so communicative and helpful, it was a pleasure to stay in her home. The little extras she supplied including a fresh breakfast make this place a real gem. No one would believe the list of extras if she wrote it all down!

It's always a pleasure to come back to the bach! It's so peaceful and we are so lucky and grateful to be able to have this experience at a true Kiwi bach right in the beach with the fabulous views of Kapiti! Slice of paradise, thanks again for sharing your beautiful home!

Very clean,quiet and spacious space which was perfect for my family of 4. Location was fantastic— a few minutes drive to Wellington CBD and the interislander ferry check-in. Parking space was super generous. Catherine was very responsive and helpful! Highly recommend!

My husband and I loved this place! Hands down the best Airbnb we have ever stayed in and that is saying a lot. We took the bus to go downtown which was easy and inexpensive. We walked in the native gardens right next to the property. We walked to the grocery. Even though we had a car we never needed it. The porch was our favorite place and we sat and watched the birds. So peaceful and seemed worlds away from the city. Highly recommend this beautiful home and grounds.
