Bed and breakfast vacation rentals in Waikato River

I highly recommend Jude's accommodation. It's very comfortable. Jude is a wonderful host, always attentive to her guests' needs. The bed is very comfortable, the bed and bath linens are of very good quality. The heater helps a lot on cold nights. The breakfast is adequate. It's a 7-minute drive from the city center. Don't hesitate to stay with Jude. If there were 10 stars rating I would give her 20.

Staying at Vicky’s was so amazing. I’d highly recommend!! Vicky is lovely and kind, and was happy to chat, but also happy to give us our own space too. We had a great chat in the evening and got some excellent local recommendations, and even got to play with her adorable cat. Vicky provided us with a delicious breakfast with, with homemade jams and homemade ginger beer too! We’re already planning our next trip, and we will be staying with Vicky again!

I loved staying at Nanette’s. The room is cosy sunny and bright. The bathrooms are spotless and are also very spacious. The shared spaces are great. Nanette and her girls are warm and inviting they really look after their guests in their home. I loved meeting other guests as well that came from all over the world . It was fun having a chat with all the new people. Taupo is beautiful of course with the lakes and spa park is very special. The cost of the room with breakfast is very economical you even get Nanette’s wonderful homemade baking. I would definitely highly recommend.

Such a lovely stay. The rooms were perfectly clean, comfortable and stylish. The hosts were very welcoming and thoughtful. We enjoyed Michael's archery session and Mia's amazing breakfast. The freshly baked bread was fabulous. And the lovely dog Hunter showed me around their beautiful garden!! We had a great time and it is actually the most pleasant accommodation we have ever stayed at in NZ.

Really lovely quiet location close to Hamilton. We arrived late and had to leave early so we didn’t manage to meet our hosts. Instructions were easy to follow.

If I could assign a sixth star, I would do so without hesitation. Peter and Nanette were wonderful hosts, genuinely, interesting and full Of good advice as to what to do in the area. I felt very my at home.

Andrea is an amazing host. Friendly, always up for a chat and very helpful.

Rose and Roger were very responsive and helpful. They welcomed me when I arrived showing me how everything works. The place was spotless clean to perfection. The kitchen was super clean with everything I needed. The continental breakfast was amazing with so much food and coffee, water , milk and juice left for me. I never seen so much care for the guests ! The bed is super comfortable and the place is beautifully decorated inside and outside with a lovely garden and the spa was so big and nice ! Plenty of towels left for me! The outside garden is private and I couldn’t hear noises so peaceful and so close to the mount! Rose was super helpful to offer suggestions for possible local walks and I felt like at home. Rose and Roger went above and beyond to make sure I had a pleasant stay! Lovely people ! I had a very nice break and I will be definitely coming back. This is so far one the best Airbnb experiences I have ever had. Thanks Rose and Roger for the lovely stay!

We had the pleasure of staying here, 1st experience with an air bnb in someone’s home. The place was warm, felt like home as we could access the main parts of the home in and out and enjoy the comforts of the spa at our discretion without limitations. It was a positive, warm and friendly experience. Cici was a pleasure to communicate with and very responsive and timely to my inquiries. We were given an earlier check in at our request and enjoyed the on site massage. Cici also accomodating in changing times for this even at short notice. Thanks again Cici, Darryl and Jake for sharing your beautiful home with us.

Really enjoyed our stay. Beautiful people, beautiful place and would highly recommend, very friendly and felt right at home. Thank you for everything.

Great value for money. Super friendly and accommodating. Clean and tidy. 2 separate rooms. Great facilities, and breakfast, tea coffee and bikkies. Albeit dated it was lovely and brilliant value. The furniture and beds were brilliant. Thank you so much. Love to see you again. :)

Very nice place to live in. The house owner is friendly and prepared food & breakfast for us. Not far away from center and easy to find. Strong recommendation!

A very pleasant stay experience, the bedroom is slightly crowded but the bathroom is spacious. The host's room is separate from the guest’s, strong privacy. I am happy to recommend it to others!

The best Airbnb we ever stayed at in New Zealand! We had the best service from Yvonne and Matthew 🙏🏼 If you are hesitating to stay there I swear this place won’t disappoint you. Not only the owners are very friendly but they cook you breakfast. Yvonne’s salmon eggs Benedict are the best 😮‍💨 They really looked after us from start to beginning! 😍 I would recommend this Airbnb to everyone that wants to stay in Tauranga. Their house is amazing and the view is immaculate 🤩 Their neighborhood is very quiet and they have a pool and a spa pool that you can use whenever you want to. Thank you again to Yvonne and Matthew we appreciate you both! Next time we are in Tauranga we will gladly stay with you again.

David was so friendly, the room was better than the pictures. Great experience for the country life. Recommend to everyone.

Great experience staying here. Great design. The breakfast is delicious!

Marty & Lou's upstairs apartment is amazing! the furniture, the bed, the linen all incredibly comfortable. The space is so welcoming! so peaceful. An extreemly short walk to the lake's edge and so too the 10k walking trail that circles the lake. A short drive (2km maybe) to the blue lake (more trails, swimming, boating) and so maybe 3km to the worlds best mountain bike and running trails. While the breakfast room doesn't have cooking facilities that didn't worry us - Marty and Lou supplied breakfast and with less than a 9km drive to the nearest cafes and bars and maybe 12km to the CBD to find lunch or dinner we were set! We happily made basic meals thanks to simple cutlery and crockery, a small fridge, toaster and jug. We were able to store our mountain bikes and muddy running gear in the utility room. Marty, Lou and their cats were so friendly. We loved our stay and hope we can stay again.

Even though it was a brief trip for waterpolo nationals, my stay with Lynnelle was fantastic, there is no doubt why she is a super host, her home and demeanour was warm and inviting. When I arrived she was baking cookies with her 2 grandchildren, who took their jobs very seriously in showing me where my room was. Would happily stay with her again and recommend to anyone looking for a kind and generous host in Rotorua.

Pauline and Steve went above and beyond our expectations!! Their innovative and architecturally designed house is extremely comfortable, dry and warm: everything you need after a day exploring Waikato or cycling the Hauraki Rail Trail! Bonus: the spa in the garden is what your sore muscles need! Our bikes were safely locked in the garage for the night while we had the best time chatting and having dinner with Pauline and Steve! These two make a great team: Pauline is a wonderful cook and Steve a great host, both are very welcoming and warm human beings. Everything we needed for breakfast was ready in our private little kitchen, including homemade jams, yoghurt and bread! We can’t recommend staying with Pauline and Steve enough. Don’t hesitate and book a night ! Thank you so so much Pauline and Steve ! We’ll be back 😊

Judith’s home is unique in its architecture in a lovely, safe, friendly, and convenient neighborhood. I didn’t use my car at all during my 3 day stay, choosing instead to walk to a great Saturday Farmers Market,; a good choice of restaurants and shops; scenic hiking/walking options. The nearby iSite provides many brochures related to the history of Cambridge, and I found the town to be very pleasant and friendly! Judith has many years’ experience hosting, and she is the Ultimate Hostess, wanting to make your stay as pleasant and memorable as possible! I highly recommend!

Absolutely loved Tersia’s downstairs apartment. It was very immaculate and stunning! A comforting & private little place, it feels just like home. I will definitely be staying again in the future…. also the cat - Cleo was just a sweetheart. ☺️ Thank you again Tersia for your lovely hospitality! 🫶🏻

Our stay at the Jacqueline’s “Salt Shed” was absolutely delightful. It’s an unusual setup with the caravan, the outdoor living space and the kitchen and bathroom in separate areas and it’s totally charming! We had lots of room and every day we discovered a new feature or cute decoration. The kitchen is extremely well equipped. The bed was comfortable. Everything is spotless. The gardens are full of flowers and the views are amazing. Jacqueline is a gem, she made sure we had everything we needed. Can’t say enough. Highly recommend.

A lovely retreat in a great location that feels rural yet close to the town. A great location for the caves. There were lots of thoughtful touches and treats in the room which were very much appreciated! A glass of wine in the hot tub was a great way to end the evening. Thanks Mel!
