Cottage vacation rentals in Tauranga City Council

Samantha has gone out of her way to have all the extras eg hot tub, outdoor furniture etc, appealing backyard. Very helpful when we first arrived and quickly dealt with a minor issue we had with the power, very much appreciated. Thanks

Excellent stay and so close to everything. Easy check in and clear communication made everything seamless. Would recommend staying again. Only thing we did not use was the hot tub as we were unsure when it was cleaned or maintained last. All else was perfect!

Perfect little batch, very easy walk to the beach and a close bike ride or drive to shops, cafes, and handy to the Mount. We had everything we needed here and would stay again.

I loved the Rose Cottage - it felt like a peaceful nature retreat, yet it was so close to the city and the amenities it brings. Gabrielle is a wonderful host and provided a list of things to do in Tauranga and their favourite spots in the area.

We couldn’t have picked a more perfect spot for our mini-moon! From the moment we arrived, we were in love—gorgeous flower gardens, dreamy hydrangeas, and the most charming vintage decor that was so our vibe. Every little detail was thoughtful and welcoming. Our small dog, Hazel, was just as happy as we were, enjoying the peaceful surroundings and exploring the garden. It felt like a cosy, romantic escape while still having all the comforts of home. We truly didn’t want to leave! Love, love, love—would stay again in a heartbeat! 💕✨🐾

Great home in a great location! House had beautiful decor and everything we needed! Would definitely stay again.

A Peaceful and Authentic Farm Stay Experience with two great hosts either stunning night skies. Our stay at Sunday Country Cabin was truly magical! The peaceful countryside setting provided the perfect escape from city life. The cozy accommodations and warm hospitality from Gary & Michael made us feel right at home. Apart from the stunning views and absolute calmness, this place also provides a great flexibility to visit Rotorua and Tauranga both in a single day, which is of course a cherry on top. Nights were especially breathtaking—calm, quiet, and perfect for stargazing. With no city lights around, the sky lit up beautifully, making for an unforgettable experience. If you're looking for a serene retreat with stunning night views, this is the place to be. We can’t wait to return!

This house is across the street from the beautiful, long, sand Papamoa beach! Also walking distance to restaurants and surf board rentals and lessons! we loved loved loved the house. It has beautiful old wood floors, a claw foot tub, and lots of antique details. It also has front and rear decks - wonderful for outside dining - we had breakfast in the front in the sun, and dinner at the nice table in the back. We will stay there again!

We loved staying at Frances’ place, great location and had everything we needed. Thanks!

A lovely cottage in the New Zealand countryside! Spacious with a cute balcony that had great views. Only a 13 minute drive to the city centre too!

Great home in a great location! House had beautiful decor and everything we needed! Would definitely stay again.

We loved our stay so much! It was so cosy and had everything we needed, beautiful place and super clean, the bed was so comfortable! Great location as a few minutes walk to the beach and also to Bayfair. The outdoor shower is a great addition if you’ve been to the beach. Would highly recommend Lesley’s place & we hope to be back in the future 😊

Really nice, clean and spacious place. Modern bathroom and well equipped kitchen. Lovely view of the water from both the living room and bedroom. Super comfortable bed and on site parking. Amanda was a great host, really friendly and accommodating while making the space feel like our own private refuge. Would definitely stay again.

Delwyn's bach is so lovely. We felt right at home. The homemade bread and breakfast was delicious and a nice treat. The location is good, about 15 minutes away from the central Tauranga area - just tucked away enough to feel like a proper escape. Delwyn is very friendly, helpful and overall an amazing host.
