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

Just loved waking up to the beautiful view in quiet surroundings, and watching the birds enjoy the bird feeder. Lots of space to sit quietly. Perfect after a busy day in the city.

My wife and I had a lovely and relaxing stay at the Post Office Cottage. The cottage and surrounds is charming and peaceful to spend time in, and within easy proximity to attractions in the Taranaki area. Thanks for having us!

simply fantastic . Three of us enjoyed the quiet and the view and the cleanliness. all outstanding. will visit again

We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful and peaceful place to stay, we absolutely loved our visit and would have stayed for a week if we could! We were made to feel at home straight away with such kindness, nothing was too much trouble. 100% recommended!

We had a fantastic couple of days staying at Kathy and Bryon’s. The food that was provided was very much appreciated and the place was clean and tidy as it looked in the pictures. You are only a couple of minutes walk from the beach and the local cafe which is very good. We would happily stay again.

We really enjoyed our stay. The house was cosy and charming, had a lovely view of the bush and hills. A great little getaway.

Chris was a lovely host, the unit is compact and comfortable and has all of your basic amenities. My kids loved the spa pool, nothing better than unwinding in a hot tub after a long day of sightseeing! would definitely love to come back and stay in the future, maybe our next visit to hobbiton.

We had a great stay at Terry & Millie's place. The accommodation was very cosy and warm considering the outside temperatures and the bed was so comfortable. We liked the accommodation being a little outside the main town as it was quiet and peaceful. All amenities were provided for us to be able to cook breakfast, lunch & dinner - having an air fryer & dishwasher were added bonuses. Lastly, Roxy was such a beautifully natured dog that our daughter loved having around to give pats to. Would definitely stay here again if we were to return to Rotorua.

Great place to stay, enjoy the view and spa. Definitely I would stay again Thanks Jodi

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

This place was 10/10. Lovely spot for a dreamy night away! Emma was so kind and catered for my celiac partner. The bath was so luxurious, and gazing at the stars at night in such a beautiful location on a stunning property. And lovely to have our gorgeous breakfast amongst the bird sounds on the deck in the morning.

super cozy bed and soft which is a rarity, loved the closeness to papamoa Plaza. light bright and airy and quiet. thankyou enjoyed my stay.

It’s our second time coming back we loved it that much!Perfect for a relaxing get away.

The house was spotless and beautiful, with a well stocked kitchen and private deck. The cheese platter the host left was a lovely surprise. Would definitely recommend this house for anyone looking for a peaceful getaway!

Was beautiful studio perfect place to disconnect from the world and just be. Nicole was such a great host so easy to deal with. A quick easy drive to the town for dinners or breakfasts and back to the piece and quite of the beautiful studio.

We had a great stay at this little place. It's cozy and has everything you need. We had a short two night stay and it was perfect for our needs. Hosts were very responsive and helpful with local recommendations!

Peaceful and serene spot, beautiful view. Clean and tidy property, clear communication with easy to follow instructions. Description was very accurate. Would highly recommend and would book to stay here for future trips :)

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

Our stay was amazing. So peaceful and rejuvenating. This place is perfectly situated to visit the surrending. The view from the house is stunning and the access to the lake is very special. I'll probably come back ✨

Perfect, luxurious, well-appointed studio in what is obviously one of the most beautiful places on earth. Very private and feels secluded but is a quick drive to Cambridge which has great cafes and even better pastries. We stayed here as a base for travel to Hobbiton, Rotorua and Taupo (a two hour drive but worth it) and highly recommend the back roads - the scenery is amazing. The studio itself has everything you need, the amenities are modern and high end and the bedding is so comfortable. We struggled to leave the comfort every morning, especially with the rain. Highly recommend staying here.

We had such a lovely stay at Therese’s place ! So many little touches which were very welcomed after a long day exploring and traveling. The snacks and cereal and having a few condiments etc. always makes it easier for a family when traveling. Really comfortable stay and beautiful surroundings, coming from Aus it’s always so amazing for us to see mountains out the window. The location was close to town and groceries etc. and we spent both days around Mt Taranaki exploring and enjoying the walks. Thanks Therese we would come back for sure !

Comfortable well equipped place and very clean. Breakfast supplied which was appreciated. Penny was friendly and helpful. Would recommend. Close to cafe for a coffee during the day.

A wonderful peaceful place to stay with gorgeous views out over the lake. Bryony and Steve were friendly, quick to respond, and made sure the place was warm for our arrival. Would recommend to all

We had a lovely stay, the host had turned the heating on for us and with the log burner it was lovely and warm. Beautiful bed linen and a well appointed kitchen. Perfect.
