Bed and breakfast holiday rentals in West Coast

We loved staying with Helen at the Bealey eco lodge. The setting is breathtaking and Helen’s cosy lodge was the perfect place to explore the area from. Helen is a super friendly host with a remarkable knowledge of the region. We’d recommend this stay for anyone traveling through the area looking for an off-grid experience

We absolutely loved our stay at Waikonini Homestead! From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed with tea and cake, setting the tone for a truly delightful experience. We stayed one night in ‘Owen’s Room’, and as no other guests were booked during our visit, the homestead felt wonderfully tranquil. The warm, cozy bed made for an incredibly comfortable night, and the meals were a perfect finish to the night. Dinner (prebooked) featured a fish pie, followed by a mince tart with homemade custard—comfort food at its very finest. Mary, our host, truly made the experience unforgettable. Her warm hospitality and engaging conversations about travel, dogs, and life made us feel completely at home. And her delightful Corgis, Peppi and Anne—oh, they were absolutely adorable! The homestead itself is a treasure—an elegant old home surrounded by stunning grounds that invite you to relax and explore. The perfect blend of timeless charm and modern comfort.

This was a lovely place to stay during our roadtrip down the west coast. Kirsty was so friendly..She helped us get our things inside during the pouring rain and had a good breakfast for us. The sunrise at Lake Matheson, right down the road, was stunning. Would stay here again!

The accommodation is very warm, clean and tidy, consistent with the description. The director is very warm and thoughtful. It is a very good accommodation experience.

we spent one cozy night in this warm and beautiful house. Kirsty and John are very friendly.

This is the most special place we stayed in our 4 weeks in New Zealand. The lodge feels absolutely like home and casts a spell you will never forget. Pete was a such a warm and funny presence—always ready with a quip or a laugh. The room we had, and the main house, are beautifully designed and the interiors are warm, authentic and serene. Extremely comfortable bed and top notch bathroom facilities. You will definitely want to stay longer than whatever time you have booked.

A fantastic place to relax and unwind. Tranquil countryside views Sue was an amazing host Our wedding weekend was superb and having a place to stay that we felt comfortable coming and going was such a bonus . Was lovely to meet Sues extended family too . We had the most relaxing time Jenny and Steve

Excellent location. Easy walk along a river into core area. Karen and Rob are exceptional hosts. They saved a parking space for me and made me feel right at home. Rob even walked with me a bit to get me headed in right direction. Clean and comfortable. Only had one night with them, but would go back in a heartbeat.

We loved our stay here it was a truly beautiful place and Drew and Bron had thought of everything to make us feel at home. A unique experience having animals at the window in the morning! Would highly recommend.

Highly recommended. Excellent AirBnB. Dean and Carol had an excellent stand in host in John. John couldn't have been more welcoming and willing to explain the set up in the house. He also gave me great recommendations about local restaurants and local attractions. There was a storm in progress the evening I arrived and John had a lovely bright fire going in the stove. I very much appreciated this on the evening that it was. The house was spotlessly clean and the bed was really comfortable. I was also treated to a very good continental breakfast.

Brilliant hosts fantastic place. Briar and Shaun are extremely welcoming and make you feel right at home in their beautiful house. They provide great advice and suggestions on what to do based on your preferences both locally and further afield. We had really great conversations and Briar makes really good cakes! As a guest you have access to the lounge area so can relax and make yourself at home. Definitely happy to recommend

Thank you so much for the stay Kaaren and Philip! Place was lovely, and the breakfast/coffee bar was a great addition. Highly recommend!

Sue and John are warm, welcoming, friendly, bright people. Location, accommodations and setting are top drawer, with great attention to creature comforts. Being able to do laundry a bonus. Breakfast tasty and conversation interesting and open. Kiwi hospitality at its finest!

Lovely place in a perfect location. Had a great breakfast while chatting with some fellow travellers. Easy walk to the botanic gardens, museums and shops, yet the B&B feels tucked away and cozy.

I made beautiful memory there. Place: The garden is far more spacious than the pictures. and you can see stars and the moon when it’s clear:) Room: There is a fridge in the room! You can find everything you need. Host: Ron took me for a night walk in the garden at night, and we saw the moon and stars. The moon was full moon at the night, that was beautiful experience! Anne was also lovely, she’s always caring about me. They are very approachable and beautiful:) If I get the chance back to nz again, I really love to see them!!

We had the large room, and it had a super king-size bed. The bed is very comfortable and the lined great. The bathroom is small but clean and functional, with luxurious towels. There is a little table with 2 chairs where we ate our continental breakfast. We chose the details from a menu given to each of us. Our host, Julie, left our breakfast outside our door at the time we stated. There is a small fridge in the room with tea and coffee making facilities. It's a lovely old house with bedrooms upstairs. Julie has thoughtfully decorated the home with bits and bobs, wallpaper and furniture of the era. We ate at Miss Saigon, which is a fantastic Vietnamese restaurant within walking distance!! And then watched TV lying on the bed .

A great place to stay with a lovely host - Catherine is very friendly and welcoming. She picked me up and dropped me off again at the train station for my further travel which was really helpful! Thanks for having me!

This is a unique and bona fide Boutique BnB! You’ll want to spend some time just exploring the antiquity and treasures in Dalkeith BnB, where you’ll find all kinds of treasures! The bed and linens are heavenly, along with the ensuite bathroom, the breakfasts were glorious and the care & attention Julie the host, extends is brilliant! Great location, everything walkable, Kaiapoi Museum is phenomenal, along with all amenities nearby. I loved staying here, the property’s gardens are glorious and 4 nights went by so fast! Very well priced and best BnB I have experienced. Kaiapoi is a little gem of a town not to be missed!

Lovely hosts! Thank you so much for being so flexible with the check in and making my mother feel so comfortable in your beautiful home, she really enjoyed meeting you all.

Everything is as advertised. Great people and place. Highly recommended.

First time we have stayed in someone’s house on AirBNB so it took a bit of getting used to for us, but our hosts were very welcoming and very considerate. They booked us into a local spot for dinner and helped us get oriented in the area. Place is exactly as described.
