Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Porirua

Fantastic place to stay after a 5-hour drive. Host was very considerate and warmhearted. Everything was just what we need. Highly recommend it unless you don’t like a place felt like home.

A beautiful house in a lovely location with views over the hills and trees. Such uplifting scenery to wake up to. The house is on the outskirts of Wellington in Thorndon which has its own great bars shops and restaurants. Easy walking distance to central Wellington. Close to the stunning Botanical gardens and the cable car. Fantastically equipped house with special treats like ground coffee, milk and a bottle of wine. We had a very happy and memorable stay here.

We had an amazing 3 days at Plum. The home is so comfortable, very tastefully furnished and decorated with all that you need for a short or long stay. The local supermarket, restaurants and cafes only a 3 minute walk away and the beach only a 5 minute walk away. The area is so quiet and peaceful and we had the best nights sleep every night. The hosts made us feel so welcome. Would highly recommend Plum to anyone looking for that quiet getaway, only a 40 minute drive from Wellington CBD. We’ll be back!!

Lovely quiet location but close enough to enjoy the CBD. It’s a new build which is great for cold days (yay double glazing!), and we were happy to be able to bring our four legged friend along!

Had a wonderful stay at Richard’s place! The place looked exactly like the photos and it was so lovely to have a garage to park in as well as being able to bring our dog. Appreciate all the small touches and great information booklet. The beds were comfy and the shower pressure was fantastic. Hope to stay again in the future!

This house was excellent for our extended family gathering – the kids loved the table tennis room, the oldies loved the view, and we all loved the direct access to the beach. Thank you, Jill, – your communications were great, the house was spotless, the beds were super and the setting made this a gathering we will all remember, even though it was for Great Grandma’s funeral.

We had a great stay at Ngaire’s place. A nice little cottage with great views and had everything we needed. Also enjoyed the coffee shop across the road. Ngaire was a lovely host and very helpful ☺️

beautiful house, with garden and being very private with the front fence, entry by gate... we were in Naenae for a funeral, really appreciated to have the space to reflect and prepare ourselves for our last days with our sister/aunty/Nana.. Thankyou so Barbara for letting stay at St James..

We had an absolutely gorgeous stay here! This Airbnb was stunning. It was well equipped with all modern day appliances, spacious layout, comfiest beds and nice close to local shops. Special shout out to Rachael who was super friendly and able to get the house cleaned and ready for us the evening we booked it - best host! :)

Beautiful and peaceful and wroth every penny. Perfect for anyone who loves horses. The unit is well equipped and the bed is fantastically comfortable. We also went horse riding. Andrew and Laura were very accommodating and it was a great experience. We will be back.

Great place, clean and tidy, had everything we needed. Highly recommend

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.

I highly recommend Sally's place, the Griffin Inn, to anyone wishing to stay in tranquil surroundings in the Porirua area. It's on the north side of beautiful Tītahi Bay, with an amazing clifftop walk just up the hill for you and / or your dogs. It's a short walk to the beach itself. Sally place is a separate small house set beside the family home, and despite the name is not an inn as such but rather a dedication to her mum and the family name. It is immaculate, cozy, well presented, tucked away in a sheltered little oasis and has a nice covered outside area for relaxing. Sally is a wonderful, friendly and open-hearted host and she made us feel very welcome indeed (myself and my dogs). If Sally is not onsite her daughter Kim will look after you to the same standard, and her son Dave might even look after your dogs if you need (he runs a doggy daycare business). Highly recommended for singles, couples, small families and people with pooches. Would stay again for sure.

Excellent location and very comfortable stay. Parking is very tight suited for smaller vehicles. Location is quiet and easy access to everything.

The most beautiful place to stay before a wedding, Tina was extremely accommodating and I felt like I was right at home. The attention and detail she has put into the property was top notch and the alpacas were so cute and friendly! Thank you so much for a truly unforgettable stay.

Beautiful location. Had a restful stay after our ferry.

We spent Xmas and new year here. The house has a great outlook over Kapiti Island and there is a comfortable homey lounge with a nice indoor/outdoor flow. The Pohutakawa’s next door were in bloom. We had the grandkids over and they loved the spa pool. There is a mezzanine off one of the bedrooms with an awesome amount of Lego. So, heaven for kids to go up there and have a bit of a play. Huge selection of board games etc and Texas Holdem poker was a hit with our crew. The oven takes a bit of a fiddle and a couple of go’s to get the hang of it. The driveway can be a challenge. We were mainly here to catch up with family, but enjoyed some of the local sights , including the car museum and the Barry Hadfield Nikau forest. Carolin is responsive and overall a great time was had by all.

This home was beautiful and clean. Madeline was super helpful and response. Could not have asked for a better host of home. Thankyou for sharing your lovely place with us. We had the best time.

Thank you, what a lovely and special family home, it made for a magical and relaxing xmas break. Beautiful deco home with bohemian vibes. A spacious garden area to play led to an ethereal private pathway to the beach which was dotted with wild flowers. Original deco elements retained in the bathrooms. Spacious rooms, comfortable beds with views. Would not hesitate to recommend. Many thanks.

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.

Beautiful house with amazing views. Fully equipped kitchen, with loads of extra supplies. The beds were so comfortable and the spa was superb. Thanks Scott, I would love to come and stay again.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The home is lovely and the location is very good. I would highly recommend.

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