Bed and breakfast holiday rentals in Southland Region

Waiorau Homestead was absolutely stunning and exceeded our expectations. Our hostess Ann was extremely attentive and made sure we had every thing on hand to ensure a relaxing and peaceful stay. The most comfortable bed and luxurious down comforters and pillows were 5 star quality. Our room was thoughtfully decorated and felt like we were in a Parisian Hotel. A lovely buffet breakfast greeted us each morning which comprised of seasonal fruits, cereals , eggs on toast and croissants followed by freshly brewed coffee. Thank you so much for having us & making our stay perfect.

I came to Paul’s place for one night with my mom and we had such a lovely stay. The place was clean and well located. We had a lovely stay.

Loved staying at Lynne’s place. Such a treasure to meet her and Fred. Loved our accommodation and looking at the other stone cottage. Watches the bees on the lavander plants as we had dinner. Felt so at home and welcomed. Would come again when back in NZ.

Absolutely lovely accommodations. Everything was clean and comfortable. I was able to do a load of washing, which was greatly appreciated. Gary was great to talk to and made me feel right at home. Highly recommend.

The view from the room was absolutely breathtaking – I’ll never forget falling asleep under the sparkling Milky Way at night. The house’s location was great , with the bus stop just a short walk away, making it so easy to explore the area. The bed was incredibly comfortable (I slept better here than at home!), and I truly appreciated how safe and peaceful the entire stay felt. Peggy ’ve created such a special retreat, and I’m already dreaming of returning someday.

A lovely accommodation that makes you feel like you are stepping into a secret garden. We stayed here right after a week of hiking and backpacking, so it was the perfect place for us to rest and explore after a busy week. We enjoyed the hot tub most nights and slept with the curtains purposefully open so that we could see the glorious sunrise each morning. The views were truly breathtaking and our hosts, Jennie and Matt, were really hospitable. We enjoyed the breakfast for one of the three mornings during our stay and would highly recommend for anyone wishing to have a relaxing vacation. The location of this stay is also ideal for those with a car who wish to explore both Queenstown and some of the surrounding areas such as Arthur’s Point and Arrowtown etc. Will be recommending this accommodation to all our family and friends wishing to visit the Queenstown area.

My stay in Diane's place was exceptional. The rooms were clean and the communication was absolutely fantastic. Diane was such a lovely, caring host and I will definitely be booking again.

Very kind grandparents, smooth communication，beautiful house, clean and warm rooms, convenient shopping, about 10 minutes drive to Woolworths. There is a large playground behind the house, and there are also many children's books and toys at home, which are very suitable for living with children. It was a very happy living experience, and if there is a chance, I will come back and recommend it to others!

Sheryl’s place is an absolute must for visiting New Zealand’s South Island! We stumbled on her place in a last minute booking, avoiding rain, and ended up staying another night because of how lovely our experience was. Sheryl is incredibly welcoming and friendly, and we loved chatting with her. Her house is not only stunning, but steps away from Lake Hawea— a must stay!

Great stay! The host was very hospitable and the complimentary continental breakfast exceeded all expectations. Location was perfect for our needs, down the road from the airport, and perfectly quiet to get some much needed rest.

We absolutely loved our stay, the stars were incredible and rooms comfy and very spacious! Great breakfast too! Would stay again!

Caroline was very kind and lovely,it's nice place to over night,and breakfast was so good although I don't have time to taste it,lol.

Nathan and Liz were very friendly and accommodating. They both offered local advice and suggestions. The unit was clean, comfortable, and everything was as advertised. Having access to the kitchen/refrigerator was very helpful for us. Their place is just a brief walk from beautiful Lake Te Anau and there are several good dining options nearby. Te Anau is a great location from which to visit Milford Sound and explore the many awesome hikes in the area. We especially enjoyed the tour at the Te Anau Bird Sanctuary. The ranger was very personable and informative. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again.

A awesome AirBnB with everything you need (including cooking facilities). You will have a wonderful view into the green while having the provided breakfast. Jane was a great host, thanks for having me at your place.

This BnB has by far the best I have been honestly. The best view one can get straight from the room. Brid was a super lovely host and very friendly and responsive. We also had a good time in the sauna room too. Would surely come again next time when we visit Bluff. Must recommended BnB.

The most beautiful place to unwind, stunning views, lovely host. Hot tub under the stars a bonus! Will come back here soon

Sam and Fred are absolutely amazing hosts! Great communication from the outset and throughout our stay. They have the most beautiful home, making us feel very welcomed and felt privileged to get to know them. We had complimentary snacks and a personalised card on arrival! The breakfast which is included in our stay was unbelievable!! 10/10. It was great getting to know their story and felt like we had known them for years. Our room was super clean and tidy and had quite the luxurious bathroom. Only a stones throw from the lake and tracks, quiet and private. Highly recommend.

Hands-down this was the best AirBnB experience I’ve ever had - and I’ve travelled extensively. AirBnB should do a case study on Fred and Samantha, and the service offering they provide to share a template for what best practise looks like. Great hosts, lovely room, amazing cooked breakfast each morning - prepared with local produce and a scenic location. Could not have asked for more. A fabulous stay!!

Jesper and Alex's villa is beautiful, decorated premium, modern fixtures, and fabulous beds and toiletries.We had a very happy two days here, the owner of the house was very welcoming, greeted in person at check-in and prepared a very hearty breakfast for two days in a row.Alex learned that we came to New Zealand for our honeymoon and specially prepared champagne and desserts for us, which was appreciated.Jesper prepared a hiking pole for us before we went for a mountain hike.It was the best two days of our trip to New Zealand!

We had a great stays with Joan and Kevin, wonderful hospitality feel like home straightaway :) The house is modern and squeaky clean. Also, beautifully surroundings with the nature, wildlife and lake. We will definitely stay again next time :)

Such a lovely place to stay! The room was warm and inviting—just what we needed during the holidays. Our host went above and beyond by making us fresh coffee every morning, which was such a thoughtful and appreciated touch. Everything was clean and super comfortable. We felt really well looked after and would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommend!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Kristy's AirBnB. The accommodation was perfect—exactly as pictured—and incredibly comfortable. Parking was a breeze, and Kristy was a fantastic host. We truly enjoyed our experience and will definitely be returning in the future.

We had the pleasure of staying at Sarah-Jane's place and it was just perfect! Sarah-Jane is an incredibly warm host who made us feel right at home. The rooms are modern, lovingly furnished and above all sparkling clean – the ideal place to relax and unwind after a long day of travel. The bathroom and the guest toilet were also in perfect condition. The view from the room was breathtaking! Another highlight was the food Sarah-Jane prepared – not only delicious, but really a culinary masterpiece! We were able to enjoy every meal and felt completely pampered. Sarah-Jane also gave us valuable travel tips and was always helpful. A big plus was also that we could easily pay everything by credit card, which saved us a lot of effort. Our short stay with Sarah-Jane was a real experience, and we highly recommend this place!

Ian’s historic Dunstan House is one of a kind. Expect a warm welcome and terrific morning coffee!
