Farmstay holiday rentals in Te Ika-a-Māui / North Island

Really lovely place! Very clear they have taken a lot of care to make it comfy and clean and well stocked. Thanks for a great stay.

My partner and I had a wonderful weekend stay. The place was incredibly quiet and private, perfect for a relaxing getaway. We really appreciated the lovely personal touches that made our holiday feel extra special. Everything was clearly prepared with care. Check-in and check-out were seamless, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. We’d absolutely stay here again.

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.

What a fantastic house to stay in, it really feels like you are in Italy. It was very clean and the beds were very comfortable. It was lovely to have the open fire for the colder nights and the well setup outside area for the warm sunny days. There were heaps of activities and games to play. We loved our family stay here.

What a location, and a wonderful space! Tim greeted us, answered questions and even offered for us to use his washing machine to catch up dirty clothes accumulation with our new Zealand road trip, most welcoming. We will definitely use the great outdoor bath next time, a little too cold and wet weather for this time !

Great little cabin right on the riverside. very peaceful and private. Loved the outdoor firepit and outdoor bath. Very cosy cabin! Gr4eat communication from the start. Will definitely be back

From my Mrs: My partner and I LOVED our stay. I was in awe of everything, we had a bath underneath the stars, had a nice hot meal in the little kitchen at the top — waking up to the nice golden light in the morning and being able to see Whakaari UGH perfection. The beach is a 7 minute walk away and it’s so cool! The horses there are beautiful. Just everything here was so good and relaxing, felt really sad to leave but definitely keeping this place as one of our go-to’s for some time away from home. Thank you, Sarah! Your cabin + everything was amazing ❤️ - Naia & Lez

We will be back for sure! Absolutely delivered what was on the tin. To others thinking glamping is seasonal, it was toasty as anything and outside there's a an outdoor fire and a hot tube - sublime. Kids loved feeding the animals and discovering nature. Thanks for everything!

Was an amazing stay!

Awesome place for a getaway. Beautiful view. The place is beautifully done, modern, very clean, lots of charm and cosy. We absolutely enjoyed our stay. Would love to go back. Emma and Nick are fantastic hosts. Super easy and friendly.

Was a great stay, the place felt very homely and was such a lovely space. Also very accommodating for my little dog.

We had a really lovely, though too short stay at Michelle’s place. She and her husband did a really phenomenal job setting up this beautiful peaceful little paradise. The cottage itself is extremely clean, comfortable, modern, spacious and well-appointed. The farm and gardens are beautiful with all of the different fruit trees and animals to visit with. There’s a nice short trail through native bush which we enjoyed, and soaking in the outdoor bathtub under the stars was a really relaxing experience. The hosts couldn’t have been more kind and accommodating, they were a pleasure to meet and chat with and also added some nice extra touches like fresh eggs from their hens, fresh fruits from their trees, and also accommodated a last-minute and early check-in after we arrived in Auckland early in the morning after a long journey. Would highly recommend this place to anybody and hope to come back sometime!

Absolutely loved my stay in the containership. It rained the entire time I was in the Waikato for fieldays and the containership offered a warm cozy retreat at the end of a long day. The hosts were incredible communicators and even went the extra mile to provide me with the use of their crockpot for easy dinners after a long day. One of the best Airbnb I have stayed in. Incredible craftsmanship and wonderful private outlook. 10 out of 10

Fantastic cottage with the most beautiful views. Spotlessly clean with a kitchen full of everything you need, lovely decor and comfortable furniture. Very private with the occasional visit from the very friendly cat Moose. Highly recommend this terrific accommodation

We stayed at Kimberley & Jamie’s lovely place for a week while working in the area. What a good choice it turned out to be. Set in an incredible spot on top of a hill, the Airbnb is pristine, peaceful, warm and well-equipped. The hosts are discreet, responsive and flexible. We enjoyed every minute even in the wildest of weather! Highly recommended.

Fantastic stay, highly recommend. Great spot for a little getaway from the main towns - the cottage and surrounds were so quaint and peaceful.

We really enjoyed our stay at Karen’s. It was exactly what we needed to wind down. Although the kitchenette was small, we still managed to cook a pasta dish and also a delicious breakfast. The view from bed in the morning was lovely. It was the perfect location for us to do what we needed in Tauranga and out at the family’s farm near Kati

Absolutely beautiful spot!! Felt very private and quiet and love how the home is built right into the wetlands. Love the big windows. Everything was super thoughtfully organized and loved the fresh baked bread and jam etc.

We had such a fun time at this property. We visited with friends for my Fiancés birthday and it literally had everything we needed! The favourites were the hot tub and table tennis table. The beds were luxurious and comfy with amazing views from each room. It was so peaceful and relaxing - we all had a perfect time. Thanks so much for having us!

Sue’s Airbnb was absolutely wonderful! Every detail was thoughtfully curated — from the fresh baking that greeted us & supplied during our stay, to the beautiful, luxurious bedding that made for an incredibly restful stay. The space was spotless, cozy, and stylish, with everything we needed and more. Sue has truly created a warm and welcoming haven. We can’t wait to come back!

The house was absolutly beautiful, and the surroundings so peaceful. We loved it and hope we'll be able to come back and stay longer. ❤️

Thank you so much for having us!! We wanted to get away from the city and this was perfect for that. Loved the outdoor bath and the crumpets/coffee in the morning. The space was very clean and also nice and toasty. Would definitely come back and will recommend to our friends + family Cheers guys 🫶

Beautiful spot to relax, loved the open farm surroundings. Also the hotub under the trees was a magical experience. Definitly recommend!

Lovely rural property
