Panorama
Our stay was absolutely fabulous! We loved every minute in this beautiful home. It’s spacious, comfortable, and the view is simply breathtaking. The host was incredibly kind and welcoming. If you’re lucky, you might even catch a glimpse of a herd of deer wandering by — such a magical touch!

Whanganui Awa Retreat
Great family week in Whanganui. Our place was amazing, comfortable, great vibe, relaxing, loved the pool and deck with outdoor bath. Wished we could stay longer. Ken and Jess so helpful and responsive, very friendly. Would love to stay there again.

“Be our Guest” Air BnB
myself and grandchildren loved Cecile's place..homely and has everything our lil family needed even the extras of brekky stuff, spreads, bread, milk ..truly appreciated when showing up with X4 young children ..We had a dip in pool abit cool at this time of year but refreshing ..

Feilding House
Feilding House is a grand 100 year old home that has been lovingly restored so it is able to be enjoyed. The workmanship and attention to detail is stunning. The bedrooms are huge with luxurious linen and a feeling of opulence. The whole house is spacious and functional, while giving you a feeling of being back in time. The new bathroom is very spacious with a lovely big spa bath to enjoy. The huge kitchen with up to date appliances is wonderful to cook in. We certainly enjoyed using the pool and outdoor space. Thank you for sharing your beautiful historical house.

Little Lockwood Big Heart
We had a great stay at this lovely Lockwood for our week in Palmerston North. It is in a lovely location, just a 25 minute walk from town or to the aquatic centre for a swim. The garden around the house is beautiful, and there was plenty of room for the three of us (colleagues) down for Heritage Month. The house has everything needed for a longer stay, and we really appreciated that milk (dairy and oat) were provided. Thanks!

Little Blue Bach
Fantastic whanganui bach! Much nicer in real life than the pictures. We appreciated all the little bits of design, pottery, and books. Lovely garden and outdoor area to have an afternoon drink or a bit of yoga. Can hear the wild beach sounds !

3 Bedroom home away from home in Palmerston North
Great location! House was impeccable. Felt like home and couldn’t have asked for a more comfortable stay. Wish we could have stayed a few more nights to enjoy the house’

Walk to Manawatu Golf Club
Our extended family of five stayed here for four nights while renovating a property in Palmerston North. We chose this property as it was close the house we were renovating and close to some great eateries - try The Fat Farmer for dinner and Knead for its delicious pies and bakery items. We’d stay here again if the need arose. Kathy ‘personalised’ the house to suit the children in the family - my granddaughter is now a Winnie the Pooh fan after sleeping under the Pooh duvet, reading Pooh books and playing with Pooh toys.

Wow! Large home, 3 beds/3 baths, families/groups
Great accommodation and beautiful family home. Beds were super comfy and we could want for nothing. Samantha was very proactive checking in. Thanks we had a wonderful stay!

Cozy Beach Batch in Waiinu
We had. lovely couple of nights at Felicity's cottage. Spacious, clean and very well kitted out. The bed was really comfortable so a good night sleep assured. The only problem was we hadn't booked for long enough.

Waters Edge - Close to Massey University
This home was absolutely beautiful and truly breathtaking. Every detail was thoughtfully designed, making our stay unforgettable. The stunning view was an incredible bonus that made the experience even more special. Thank you so much for welcoming us into your amazing space!"

The Blue House
Absolutely stunning home. So cozy and comfortable with a backyard. Our two year old loved the space. Will definitely be back here if we are in Whanganui.

Home on Marybank
Lovely clean house and quiet location with beautiful garden setting to relax outside. There were 8 of us so the small dining table for 5 wasn't adequate. A big wooden table would be perfect for the large space. Great having 2 living areas and 2 bathrooms. The sleep out is cute but not used often so give warning if you need it. Tess was an excellent Hostess.

Putiki Cottage
Tess is a 5 star Host. flexible with check in. we felt right at home. Kids enjoyed the ample space in and out of the house. The communication was great. Highly recommend Tess as a host and her place. Thank you for having us.

Beach Vibes
The beach house if very nice and homey. We are a family of 7 and we were able to cook and relax the only thing I can suggest is to put some lights on the terrace area specially if the guests are having dinner on it. But overall if was a good experience.

River City Views With Spa Pool, BBQ & Sky TV
It was amazing to stay at this place Beautiful views , nice tidy and spacious house David is a great host We had amazing time Spa was a plus for kids Thanks..will cone again

Modern, Spacious 3 bedroom home near City center
This was our second stay at Kathryn's home, nothing to fault, great communication, would definitely recommend.

Bookdale
What a beautiful surprise Bookdale has been. Opening the front door you’re faced with a wonderful feeling of peace and relaxation, of carefully chosen pieces of welcoming furniture, books to delve into, and all you need for a family get together. We were here for a family birthday, meeting up across the Tasman and Bookdale was the charming setting. Tess has created something special here for those appreciating stylish interiors, and all in a convenient location with great views of the Whanganui River and town. Loved it all!

'The Dogbox' Architectural Home
Lovely place to stay. Beautiful surroundings and a unique house. Good location to explore Whanganui. Only suggestion would be to bring slippers for cooler nights.

Waipipi Beach Retreat.
We love Kates place. Very special part of the world. The setting is so beautiful amd the spa is a huge bonus.
