House rentals with a pool

Valley Views hot tub - soak in the stars
Had the best time. Thanks to our fantastic hosts. They provided a unique stay, by sharing their magic slice of the world.

Bliss on Battys
We loved our stay! The house has everything you need and nothing you don’t. Although it’s older it’s great to have the pool, and there are lovely shaded areas outside too. Would happily recommend or stay again - thank you!

Water & Moutain views from private hot tub / spa
Anita and Clint’s place is absolutely stunning! The views are breathtaking - from the living room, bedroom, terrace, and especially the hot tub. The scenery constantly shifts with the weather - sunshine or rain, it’s always beautiful. The flat is super cosy, stylish, and thoughtfully furnished with lovely details. It truly feels like a piece of paradise - just WOW! Definitely one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever stayed at. Anita and Clint were also incredibly lovely and communicative. I needed a bit of assistance during my stay, and they responded right away with help and kindness. I’d absolutely recommend this place to anyone. You won’t regret it! I only wish we could’ve stayed longer!

Marsden Manor - Spacious house with large pool
Awsome home with amazing amenities. Very clean and very comfy beds. Loads of space and epic facilities

Arrowtown Alpine Retreat - Sleeps 10
We loved staying there, great for kids with sporting equipment and big backyard with soccer goals. Highly recommend.

Takapō Retreat | Lake Tekapo
Love the living room area. Kitchen has everything we need. This place is much better than the pictures was show in the listing. Unfortunately because the weather, it was cloudy the two days we stay in Tekapo, so we aren’t able to see the stargazing. But if the sky is clear, this will be the place you want to stay!

Home in Nelson
Wonderful stay at Matt and Lucy's. the home was well appointed with everything we needed. the pool and the spa was very good and we felt super relaxed and comfortable here. would happily recommend.

Very close to Pools & Shops. Ideal location
This house is in a great location, it's really nice to be able to walk everywhere we wanted to go. It is a lovely house, great for large groups of people. I would definitely stay here again, thank you!

Vista dal porto A Great View of the Port of Picton
We stayed for 4 nights - grandparents and three grandchildren aged 12 to 15. Very good location. Fantastic to watch the ferries and views of Picton. had a great time strolling around Picton and Waikawa Bay. Very good facilities. Very clean. May come back some day.

Great for families & groups, walk to town & lake
Beautiful house and yard, great location, helpful/responsive host, and quick/easy check-in (lockbox)!

Miss Eastons Whare
What a wonderful place to stay. Although we had never been here, we felt right at home. Super clean, everything you needed was there and no clutter of extras. We will be back again for sure. Thanks for having us!

The White House- Ligarbay
The location of this home is incredible! Beautiful sunsets, close to penguins and a number of stunning beaches and hikes. Check out the baby fur seals, caves, natural spring, waterfalls and abundant bird life. Piwakawakas at every hike! Garry was very accommodating and responsive. Rent with confidence!

Rare find: 3bed house so close to town you'll walk
The house is very attractive and easy walking distance from the waterfront and shopping. The downside is that it is on a very busy road with lots of traffic noise, but it was made worse by a road closure so that may not be everyone's experience. Sharon was very helpful and responsive. her area recommendations were thorough and we used a few of them while we were here.

Friday's Rest
Great accommodation in a good location. It was very clean and exactly as the photos, really well appointed kitchen. It was exactly what we were looking for and was perfect for 4 adults. Would recommend staying if you have a car as it’s a bit far from the Lake but this means it is very quiet with lovely views.

Spectacular lake and mountain views!!!
A beautiful location just a short 10-minute drive from town. The house had all the necessary amenities, and the view from the patio was stunning. One of the best Airbnbs I’ve stayed in! The host was very responsive to any questions I ha
