Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Waikato River

I highly recommend Sherry's Airbnb! My friends and I had an amazing stay - it was so cozy and comfortable and we had everything we needed.

Loved our stay here! The view over the bay was spectacular. One of the cleanest AirBnB's we've stayed in. A small drive out of town, but means it's quiet. One of the rooms has a ceiling fan that made a big difference with the summer heat. Other two rooms got quite hot with morning sun, so leave doors and windows open. Heatpump did a great job cooling the place down. 15 minute walk to the beach and is a nice little workout on the way back. Caretaker downstairs was very quiet, only saw him once on the driveway and seemed nice. No regrets staying here, just amazing!

Mark was an amazing host! This vacation home was spotless and would be great for large and small families. Our family appreciated his thoughtfulness in leaving us muesli squares at check in and then the next morning homemade bread which we enjoyed with our breakfast. His home is close to many attractions in Rotorua that made it super easy to enjoy them and be back to relax quickly. Would highly recommend his home to other travelers headed for a holiday in Rotorua. We loved our stay there.

We had a fabulous stay at Sam’s place! All of the activities we planned were no more than 15 minutes via car. The heating units came in handy during the evening, but the bedding provided ample warmth. The best part were the views; nothing beat the sun rising right in front of the bed!

Lovely stay at the pink house. Was greeted by Alby upon arrival and shown around and explained things to us. House well set up for a family of 5. Comfy main bed and warm house. Really enjoyed our stay

We were looking for a relaxing family trip and that is exactly what we got. Amazing views great location and was nice to have a spa for the cold days. Airbnb was also really well stocked in the kitchen and streaming services on the TV. Will definitely stay here again, quite expensive as we were only five people but would definitely be more worth it with a slightly bigger group!

Stunning place with an amazing view surrounded by beautiful scenery. Our whānau are in awe every time we come back. The fire place makes the home even more bitter sweet. This whare influences me to buy my own. If you’re looking for a peaceful getaway off grid - this is the place! 😍

Erin’s place was great for our short stay in Raglan. Despite the cold wet weather, it was very warm and cosy with the fire going. The house was clean, comfy and exactly as described. Communication with Erin was easy and helpful. Would happily stay here again.

Is this little slice of paradise had to be summed up in one word.. it would be Stunning. Stu has gone above and beyond to create an aesthetically pleasing yet warm space, thoughtfully decorated and appointed. Get ready to leave your stay rejuvenated and relaxed!

Such a perfect spot for our stay. Lovely and clean and super homely. Thank you for making it such a great holiday.

We had an excellent time at this lovely apartment. The location is wonderful and the place is clean, comfortable, and beautifully furnished. Highly recommend!

The place was fantastic.very well equipped.the views were absolutely fantastic.very comfortable.our group were very impressed .we could not fault it at all.we would definitely book again.

Lovely location overlooking Lake Taupo and into the sunset. Spacious deck to relax, eat and enjoy the view. Helpful responsive host. Very clean and well equipped living areas. Lovely Millennium Hotel restaurant right across the street. Great location for a relaxing break.

Loved my stay, left in the morning, returned at night, had awesome sleeps, comfortable and warm. Ngā mihi!

Very friendly and hospitable hosts who made us very welcome. The animals were a big bonus for our children. Thanks for having us.

Tastefully-decorated, self-contained unit (19 steps up) in a large home right on the water. Great view. Short walk to restaurants and groceries. Very nice and helpful hosts. The best part for us was they have a tandem kayak and direct access to the estuary. We had wonderful 3-hour kayak rides passing mangroves up the meandering river at the end of the bay.

This place is amazing and beautiful. The house is very well maintained and as it looks in the pictures. The pool was clean and big and nice, hot tub was also great. The house is very spacious and has a great speaker system. Check in was easy and you truly have the entire estate to yourself. My only negative feedback was on the golf course. I booked this place so I could play golf and the course is unplayable. Still had fun hitting balls around but it’s not been well maintained. Also, the bbq wasn’t clean enough to cook on. Everything else was great.

Great to deal with the host, just everything was perfect. Flexible check in and check out process with great communication. The place was spotless and beds are very comfortable. One of the best air bnb places that we ever tried. We will definitely come back again.

Very charming place. Great for family getaways or reunions.

The most beautiful home. Space, style fully and equipped beyond many places I’ve stayed. Stunning, absolutely stunning location, you would never tire of the view. Hope to come again.

A cosy and quirky house with beautiful views of the mountain and lake. Des is a great host and the house has everything you need. My only caution is that the driveway is a bit steep and a touch tricky especially when wet. Would recommend.

Levi and team were very responsive but everything was so clear we didn’t need to ask them anything. Levi messaged ti check in with how things weee going which was a nice touch.

The property is beautifully presented, in a very quiet and picture perfect location. We had a wonderful time, and surprised ourselves with the good rest we all had. The living space and outdoor area are massive, and it is a very perfect location for a weekend away.

We had planned to stay a few years ago but sadly Covid stopped our plans so it had been a long time coming and it did not disappoint in the slightest! The location was perfect and the house was spacious and grand yet had cosy areas to sit around the fire, all the games the kids could dream of a a chefs dream kitchen! Not to mention the spa and the wonderful bath for those of us that wanted to simply relax! We have already booked again and can’t wait! What a find xx
