Beachfront vacation rentals in Te Kōhanga / Shipwreck Bay

Lovely property with everything you could need! Deborah was a fantastic host - incredibly friendly and kind! 5 mins walk to Hihi beach and town only a short 10-15min drive away this is a perfect spot to explore the area. I’ll definitely stay again if I’m back in the area. Many thanks indeed for letting me stay!

I loved staying here so much. So beautiful, right on the beach, can't ask for better than that. The view from the deck and inside was so nice. You can hear the waves inside the unit. The cable bay store is very close. Such a lovely place in the far north. I would love to stay here again.

One of the Best Airbnb Experiences Ever! Our stay in Russell was absolutely unforgettable — this is hands down one of the best Airbnb's we have ever stayed at. The property itself is stunning, with beautifully maintained spaces and super comfortable beds and living areas. But what really sets this place apart are the incredible outdoor features. The backyard opens directly onto the beach, creating the most amazing setting. With kayaks and a dinghy available to use, plus a trampoline, swings, volleyball net, and even a slackline, there's something for everyone — you could easily spend your entire stay without ever leaving the property! And after a day of exploring the water, soaking in the outdoor spa while watching the sunset is pure magic. Honestly, the photos in the listing don’t even come close to showing how special this place is. It exceeded every expectation, and we would rebook it in a heartbeat. Already hoping we can come back soon!

Clean, tidy, private and with beautiful views. Just what was needed for couple of days of relaxation. Will be on the list of return visits

We had a great time at Henry's beach stay. It was one of the most fun places we'd stayed and the caravan was a really cosy space, the projector is also a great touch. Really enjoyed being able to walk to the beach within seconds and swim in the sea. Definitely stay here!

Neils place is great... beautiful views and open plan living inside made us feel like home..

Beautiful sunsets, Best Beach location. Clean, modern ground floor apartment, every thing you'll need provided. Access to beach across the road, we walked along the beach daily. Central to other areas 5minutes north and south. close to many other beautiful beaches. Hosts were very friendly and accommodating.

They are kind and lovely people. We had had wonderful experiences. Thank you so much.

For a winter break it really was perfect. Best spot ever. The best part....The people! Friendly, helpful. Kind. Every eatery was great. Op shop for fishing clothes too! Had great fishing with " Buckos" Dont miss it! Will return. Thankyou. BnM

The cottage has a gorgeous view - such a treat to wake up to it every morning. Really spacious and ideal for a couple. Short drive away from some amazing beaches. Thank you, Kathy!

The room is great & very nice! It is clean & kitchen is well equipped. We also can use the laundry for washing my clothes.

Loved our stay! Location was perfect for our stay. Directly across from the Marina where we had activities. Lots of great restaurants within walking distance. And super close to grocery stores as well. The apartment was comfortable and very clean. Thanks for a great stay.

This was such an incredible retreat spot! Very secluded, with one of the most breathtaking views of Te Ngaere Bay! Our favorite part was the open-air option to enjoy cooking & dining inside while being outside. Very clean, modern & incredible espresso machine to enjoy cappuccinos with the epic sunrise! We also found it nice to have your own trail down to the beach & private plunge pool. Be prepared for a climb back up for some good exercise! Worth it… especially when you can take a nice cold (or hot) outdoor shower! Great communication & care from Kas & Rhys- they are awesome hosts!

Cam was a wonderfully, helpful host. We enjoyed our stay a lot. A great location with a lovely view.

This is a beautiful condo very central location with waterfront views. If you are not able to climb stairs, there are two flights of stairs to the condo

The house is beautiful, accommodations were very comfortable, beautifully decorated, kitchen well equipped, access to the beach, gorgeous views. Kelly was a pleasure to work with, we would love to visit again.

It's a little hard to find, but once you get there you are rewarded with an amazing place to stay. Super chill beachy vibe with great outdoor area and fantastic view.

A lovely old style Bach with all the amenities, with a spectacular view of the Hokianga harbour and so close to shops, pub, cafe, info centre, and fishing. Will stay there again when next up this way

From the moment we arrived we felt at home, the home was well presented and the views stunning. Alot of games in the drawers which we played. The 2 kitchens really worked as we stayed down stairs and didn’t have to walk upstairs for coffee. Awesome neighbours and beautiful home.

We stayed over NY with this as a base for some great adventures and lots of seafood. The property manager Peter was very flexible and helpful. Bev next door was also amazing and very hospitable. Would have no hesitation in staying again! Thanks for an awesome trip.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! It was a beautiful house in a stunning location. It was nice opening up all the doors in the morning with the sun beaming in. The kitchen was well-equipped - and it’s only a few minutes drive to local eateries. A perfect getaway :)

Unique and beautiful place to relax and recharge. Very close to the beach with stunning views. We loved it!

Absolutely stunning view Handy to everything Spotlessly clean Highly recommend
