Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Dairy Flat

Great house as a base for us and our family. Very comfortable house, easy to walk to shops restaurants and beach. Morris and Daisy were very helpful and attentive hosts, providing toys for the children and even a monitor so our son in law could work while at the house

Great place and location. Everything was as advertised. Mathew was good and easy to deal with. Perfect communication. Will definitely try and be back again in the future.

We absolutely loved our stay at Patrick’s beach house - it was everything we hoped for and more. The home was immaculate, beautifully modern, and thoughtfully laid out, with a spacious open-plan living area that made it perfect for our family. Waking up to the sunrise over the water through the lounge windows felt like something out of a travel magazine. The location is unbeatable - right across from a peaceful stretch of beach that’s perfect for morning walks, kid adventures, or simply unwinding with a coffee and the view. Having multiple bathrooms was a huge bonus, and the beds were super comfortable. Patrick was an excellent host – quick to respond, clear with communication, and genuinely welcoming. Easily one of the best Airbnbs we’ve experienced - we’re already planning our return! Cheers!

Great hosts, they did a good job in preparing the house, messaging and checking in to see if we needed anything. Clear and friendly instructions. Well presented home that was beautiful and had everything we needed/were looking for. Would definitely recommend this place to others and would like to thank the hosts!

A perfect night away for our family. We had a quiet, relaxing, very comfortable time & felt very at home. It was just what we needed. Thank you for being such great hosts.

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!

+ It is spacious, clean, decent qual furnishings, air con, bush outlook. The place peaceful w double-glazed windows- grateful for that as I opened the doors in the v. late evening & heard yelling but when I closed door, I heard nothing. Thank you for the coffees & chocs. Park in front up close. Lifestyle block area, not like in the burbs. I liked that the pods are attached, you don't have to go outside to go to the bed. - The house above has their lounge looking down on us, not private when going to car. Back door leads to outside but doesn't lock & no blinds! Scary at night when moving to go to lounge or bedroom you had to go through that area. I had to chase the hosts down for replies. They'd see my friendly messages (only 1 last night & 1 today) but not reply for ages, if at all. The kitchen window has no screen. There is no free-to-air channels/other programs that are watchable w'out a cable account. I suggest a shade sail for cars. Overall though it was good for us. Cheers!

We only stayed for a short while, but would have loved a few more days. Everything in the home was well thought of. The little details 🥰 chocolates and wine, pressed toilet paper, marshmallows for the firepit, cereals and warm robes... it is obvious that Michelle really cares about her guests. Also I have to mention that I had forgotten my phone charger at home, and she had one delivered immediately the next morning. What a host! I will miss the serenity and peacefulness of Tuis Nest. Can't wait to for our next visit. Meitaki maata Michelle, you really did a fantastic job with the place.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this Albany apartment! The space was impeccably clean, beautifully furnished with stylish and comfortable decor, and incredibly well-equipped with everything we needed for a perfect stay. The location was ideal, close to local attractions, restaurants, and shops, making it easy to explore the city. The attention to detail and thoughtful touches made us feel right at home. Highly recommend this gem to anyone visiting Albany—five stars all the way!

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

Fantastic stay and everything was as describe and easy to get around.

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.

My boys stayed at Tanja's place this time. They really enjoyed there stay - it is perfect. Will be certainly staying again. Cheers

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.

We had friends around the corner in Torbay. Browns Bay is bigger and only a short (steep) walk down. The Bark and Brew was our fave coffee place. I swam the bay every day. Safe beech. Spacious accommodation with a proper lounge and separate bedroom. Great bed. I think the telly is Sky but we never turned it on! Good wifi. Loads of stuff in the kitchen. It’s all just great!

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

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.

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.

Great hosts. The Airbnb was super comfortable and peaceful. Fantastic location near walks and the beach.

We really enjoyed our stay at Irene’s. It was great to be so close to the beach and there were lots of shops and cafes within walking distance. It’s a scenic 20 minute drive to Snow Planet is that is part of your holiday plans. The apartment was very comfortable and had everything we needed to make our stay a pleasure. Irene was so friendly, helpful and caring. We would definitely stay again.

Mathilde's place was lovely and clean. The bed was very comfortable with extra bedding available if needed. We did put an extra blanket on the bed as it was a little chilly. The shower and good pressure and water was nice and hot. The night light came in handy as it made getting to the bathroom very easy. It was an unexpected treat to wake up to the sounds of birds and no traffic noise. Was close enough to walk to a local restaurant for dinner. The kitchen has lots of equipment if you decide to cook. Nespresso machine was appreciated for the morning coffee. We would stay again if in the area
