Family-friendly holiday rentals in Waimarino

Great to have a massive grass area out the front for lawn games. The big living area, deck and spa pool also nice. Well layed out house for entertaining and relaxing after our running event. Close to the big carrot / park, would be nice for families too.

Very cozy place and stunningly beautiful location. Unfortunately, the spa broke right before our stay but Imogen let us know and even provided a discount to compensate! Overall wonderful stay and great host

Such a beautiful home with lots of character. Perfect spot for a few families and lots of room for the kids to run around outside. We loved our stay and will be back hopefully next snow season 😊

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.

Andy was a very responsive and proactive host which made us feel relaxed and reassured to reach out if needed. The home was as described and suited our needs perfectly. The view was just glorious and the location fantastic!

Thanks Megan. First time staying at an AirBnB have hosted ourselves once. Really enjoyed the extra space compared to the resort the night before. Kids loved the spa pool as well and was handy to Dropzone which the kids also enjoyed going to. Close to the lake and also to a supermarket. Cheers

We had an amazing time in the house. It was very spacious with all the amenities you need for a perfect stay in the mountains! All the rooms had heaters, kitchen and bathrooms were sparkling clean and the spa was an icing on the cake! And yes on a clear day, the house has some breathtaking views of the mountain! Totally worth it. Will definitely come back again.

We were blown away with how lovely the house was. Lovely comfortable linen and beds. Very clean house with large bathrooms and kitchen. Smelt clean and refreshing. The perfect place to relax and get away. Large house with plenty of different areas and nooks to hang out in.

Thanks Wayne Apologies for the delay responding What a wonderful and unique place you have - so authentic, just like you. We felt so comfortable and relaxed - plenty of space for 9 of us Appreciated Nigel

We stayed here for a couple of nights as a base to do the Tongariro crossing. Good space with a full kitchen and comfy furniture. National park is not very big so it's a 2 minute walk to the bar/restaurant/shop. Great base for activities. highly recommend.

Was a great place to stay for our group. Had everything we needed and lovely to have the beds and linen done for us. Great location and view and very nice people to deal with. Thank you for having us.

Cute place in a beautiful town. The house is older with a few quirks, but very comfy and homey. The town is great with super nice people, a New World 2 minutes away (kinda like a mini walmart), and a bunch of cafés. The host even had a folder of all the local restaurants and activities with reviews available for us. Also, a major plus for Lord of the Rings fans, it's right next to "Mount Doom" from the movies. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone staying in Ohakune :)

Stunning view of Mount Ruapehu as you drive to Ohakune! Great region to explore or rest for the night! Kate has a guestbook with everything you need to know about her place, recommendations of where to eat, and what to explore in the area. We needed a night’s rest before driving to Auckland all the way from Wellington, and I’m glad we chose her place. 5 stars!

Wonderful wee railway cottage. Kids cracked up/crapped their pants when the trains roared past in the night but it became part of their norm in no time. Great wee cottage with everything we needed and close to town. Perfect for going up the mountain and super helpful host! Thank you.

Despite an initial hiccup, we had a fantastic time at Tracy and Damien’s home. Tracy was very responsive and helpful. We loved our stay and will hopefully return to stay here again!

Second time staying here and was as good as we remembered. Love the fireplace! Great spot as about 45 minutes from the snow.

Lisa and her place were fantastic, superb location close by shops and the lake with easy off street parking and plenty of space inside and out to enjoy the stay.

The villa we stayed in was well presented with beautiful surroundings. We stayed only for a night but would certainly come back to experience everything the place have to offer.

Lovely stay in a beautiful location- thanks again.

Nice place has everything for a ski trip. Huge living space , love the dry room.

We absolutely loved our stay at Jenny’s place! She was incredibly welcoming and friendly, which made us feel right at home. The space was cozy, comfortable, and offered breathtaking views. There were plenty of breakfast options available, and Jenny even left us some delicious treats and fresh fruit—such a thoughtful touch. Highly recommended!

Great place to stay. Comfortable and well appointed

Great open plan kitchen/living/dining area. BBQ was excellent. Being a group of fisherman, a few hooks around the place etc would have been handy to air out waders at the end of the day....but these sort of things were minor annoyances. Bunk room a little cramped, however all things considered an ideal place for a group of 5-7 anglers. Thanks Kim👍

We had a lovely stay with two couples and a child. it was cosy and the kitchen had everything we needed. there were good heating appliances too and the photos matched the description well. it was good value and would happily recommend to others. thanks Deborah!
