Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Browns Bay

We loved our stay - definitely my favourite Airbnb of all time! We felt at home from the moment we arrived - the house is so well equipped and really spacious. It's in a lovely quiet neighbourhood, but close to everything you could possibly need - including beautiful Long Bay beach. Naomi was an excellent host, so helpful and responsive :) Thank you!

Was a nice place to stay ☺️

Had a beautiful stay at this house, sam was so kind to let us check in much earlier after our flight and was so quick to respond! house was in great condition and super clean with plenty to do in the home. Thank you for letting us stay :)

We had a fantastic stay at Jo’s place. The home is beautiful, clean, and very comfortable. Jo was an amazing host—super accommodating and always quick to communicate. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience in Auckland. Highly recommend!

Had a fabulous four days staying at Morris' house while we explored the Long Bay area. Morris was a fabulous host, explained everything clearly when he met us, and allowed us an early check in, which after 30 hours of travelling was very much appreciated! The house was perfect, everything as described and a great location: walkable beach and brilliant restaurants in Long Bay Village. Food from the Malaysian, Chinese, Surf Club and the cafes were all exceptional. Lovely area and a great house to stay in. Thanks so much Morris for a lovely stay!

I had a fantastic stay and the house was spotlessly clean and well-maintained, creating a comfortable and inviting atmosphere. The location is peaceful, surrounded by nature, making it a perfect retreat for relaxation. One of the best parts was its convenient location just a short walk to Albany Village, where you can find shops and cafes. The kitchen was fully usable, which made it easy to prepare meals during my stay. The host was very friendly and welcoming, ensuring a smooth and pleasant experience. If you're looking for a quiet, nature-filled getaway with great amenities, I highly recommend this place!

My spouse and I spent 33 nights at Wei's place. He was friendly, helpful and communicated well.Solved things immediately. Street parking excellent. Not unusual for NZ, but a steep drive way and few stairs to the apartment. The apt is large and worked for visits from our son and family who live 5 minutes from Wei's - reason for trip. Wei is a 'computer guy' and setup for work and electronics was amazing. There is an auxiliary screen and plenty of plugs for elec. and A & C USBs. TV great for streaming..We are older and though we used the new gas grill in the garden, access down steep stairs made it less available and comfortable. We cooked regularly. I think we are the exception. Small kitchen was adequate. New fridge, excellent washer, minimal dryer-we hung out. No DW. Important to ask Wei for anything you need. We recommend Wei's place.

Great stay, nice and easy

This is an absolutely charming apartment to stay in and we enjoyed it immensely. Lynne is the perfect host - warm and welcoming but also attentive to our needs. There was a selection of goodies when we arrived and she baked the most amazing fresh muffins for us the following morning. The apartment itself is beautifully decorated with an inspiring collection of furniture and framed photographs. There is also a bookcase with a discerning and eclectic collection of books if you’re interested in reading- which I was. The real highlight of the apartment is the view. There is wide, expansive view of Auckland’s harbour and you are not overlooked by any of the neighbouring houses. Sitting there on the super comfy couch, with a cup of tea while looking out on the water is simply bliss. Overall, this a marvellous place to stay and simply on a higher level to many other similar apartments. We highly recommend it and will certainly come back.

We had an awesome time at the Beachside Bliss. Everything was just WOW. Ian made us feel right at home. The layout of the place is so kids friendly and safe. Loved the peace and quiet and a very clean beach. We are sure to come back soon. 101% recommended! Thank you Ian for sharing your lovely home and space with us🙏

A beautiful home. Only wish weather had been better to sit in the beautiful garden.

We really enjoyed our three night stay. Dean and Margaret’s place was very comfortable and well equipped. It was warm and clean and we felt very much at home. The beautiful view really topped it off, especially the amazing sunsets.

I loved staying here! The setting is gorgeous and the apartment is gorgeous! It is comfortable and well-appointed with everything you could need and more. Pam is a wonderful host, ready to help whatever needed. I was sad to leave and hope to have another opportunity to return.

Fantastic stay, at a beautiful place. Close to each, walks and great Greek restaurant. Maureen is a great hostess.

Clean, comfortable accommodation. Easy walking distance to shops and restaurants. Helene was very quick to respond to messages.

Sandra's apartment was a perfect little haven for our stay! It was impeccably clean, cozy, and had everything we needed for a comfortable few nights. The kitchenette was well-equipped, and the living area was a lovely spot to unwind. We really appreciated the quiet atmosphere and how conveniently located it was to shops and transport. Sandra was a wonderful host, providing clear instructions and making the whole process smooth. I'd happily recommend her apartment to anyone looking for a comfortable and convenient base in the area.

We loved our stay at Gay’s pool suite. The decorations were so charming, the gardens lush, the pool so fun right outside. And Gay made a bunch of garden games available to our kids which was awesome. Everything we needed was there. It was a lovely stay.

Feeling very refreshed after 2 lovely days spent at the magical Bethells Beach. Mary’s spot is a so peaceful, cosy and the perfect location to unwind for the weekend. Mary was incredibly helpful and kind and provided some great suggestions of the area. An extra special treat is Mary making us a yummy breakfast with eggs from her 4 local ladies and a delicious cup on coffee. It truly was a 5* stay and we can’t wait to come back.

Neat, tidy and well equipped right in the heart of the CBD. Was perfect for my short stay.

I had a fantastic stay at Amanda and her husband’s place in Auckland. The location was ideal, just a short walk to my course venue with easy transport and a great café downstairs for early starts. The apartment felt like home, spacious with beautiful views, and stayed warm and cozy. I loved the kitchen for prepping meals and the huge TV was perfect for relaxing at night. Amanda thought of everything, from a well-stocked pantry to my favorite Nespresso machine. The bathroom was spotless with great water pressure, just like a hotel. A nearby local 4 Square had anything else I needed, though most essentials were already provided. I’m quite particular and this place exceeded my expectations. I would definitely stay again if traveling solo. Highly recommended!

Really great place we enjoyed our stay the balcony is really nice to sit on great sunsets and the sound proofing is quite good so you don’t hear the motorway. Really close to Albany mall and the surrounding bays, so many great places to eat. And it was only 20 mins into the city. Would recommend it for a super affordable stay in Auckland.

The apartment was just what we needed. spacous, clean, tidy and close to the town centre.

Pia’s place is incredible! Had a wonderful 10 days there. We really enjoyed the location on the beach, all the amenities in the hime and the beautiful sunrise views from the wall of windows. One of the most beautiful places I’ve stayed. Pia was amazing to work with - very responsive and attentive. Could not have asked for a better stay in New Zealand!

Mathilde’s space was great and she helped me out in an urgent situation. I live near her and knew the location was excellent. Would highly recommend.
