Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Bay of Plenty Region

Great space and sunny location. Modern, clean and warm, with beautiful outdoor space for our toddler to explore. Beds extremely comfy with luxury feel bedding (even took note of the pillows so I could buy some). Playground around the corner and walking distance to Taupo. Enjoyed our stay, thank you.

Our stay was a perfect 10/10! We were on a girls’ trip and felt completely safe throughout. The location was ideal—private and peaceful, yet just a short drive from the main city, Eat Streat, Redwood Forest, Polynesian Spa, and other attractions. The house itself was beautiful, spotlessly clean, and very well-maintained. It's an ideal spot for families or a group of friends, with a spacious backyard that's great for kids to play and adults to relax or enjoy a BBQ. Portia was an incredibly responsive and friendly host, and we truly appreciated her hospitality. I highly recommend this stay!

A neat and tidy cottage in a nice area not far from town. A little small on the inside but good for an overnight stay. The bed is super comfy and cozy and the facilities are great. Being dog friendly is a great option and very well catered for. We enjoyed our stay! Thank you 🤩

Second stay here, heater was on when i arrived so house was beautifully warm. Lovely and peaceful and well set up so homely and comfortable.

Stellas house was an amazing place to stay. Across the road from the beach, can see the water, walking distance to shops. Great house and fantastic location..

The unit have all the stuff we need for the trip. It was last minute to book it in and the host responded to my queries real quick. They gave us clear instructions regarding the unit. The place itself was near to waihi beach which was fabulous and my dog Tella really loved the place. It had rain too and even if we needed to stay inside we can still chill indoors with board games etc. The place was really big and it can accommodate a bigger family too. We had a great time.! 😃 Thank you TPM Holiday Team for accommodating us. ❤️😃

Had a lovely stay here. House was clean, tidy and had everything we needed. Bed was comfortable, nice sheets and towels. Great to be able to bring our dog with us, fully fenced garden was perfect. Lots of board games, books and things to keep us busy on the rainy days. Tanya was lovely and met us at the door, we were given a tour and all the info we needed, including a quick rundown on the local restaurants and shops. Location was very good, close to everything but far enough away to be quiet. We appreciated being able to put the car in the garage as well. Would definitely recommend staying here 😊

Fantastic location - nice and private and very quiet. House is well set up, and has everything you need for a great weekend away. Really comfy beds.

Our stay was absolutely wonderful! The place was beautifully decorated, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. We especially loved the pool—it was the perfect spot to relax and unwind. The hosts were fantastic—friendly, responsive, and made sure everything was just right. Highly recommend and would definitely stay again!

Quirky fun layout. Very practical & roomy enough for 9 guests. The kids loved that the pool was available even though it was Easter weekend. Roszarri was very helpful and welcoming.

Atiamurphy is one of the best AirBNB places we have stayed at. Service provided, Host Communication and the Location, is perfect, for me at least. kids will have a blast, parents will get their peace, and travellers will scratch that itch whilst here! Thank you to Barry for your support throughout our stay

Yana has been amazing, our team stayed for two weeks at her lovely accommodation, she was very easy going and pleasant to deal with, we will be back in the area soon and are hoping we can stay again. The team were very pleased with the accommodation too, the spa bath was a lovely addition after a hard day's work, they also enjoyed watching the stars and listening to the birds - it was a perfect escape from the busy day on the road. We highly recommend Yana's hideaway to anyone!

Catherine's place exceeded all expectations. The space itself was incredibly roomy, making it perfect for relaxing, spending time with others, or just enjoying some quiet downtime. There were plenty of things to do, which kept everyone entertained throughout the stay—whether it was exploring the surroundings or enjoying the pool, reading books and playing the piano. What really stood out, though, was Catherine's hospitality. She went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, leaving a handwritten note and some thoughtful snacks for us to enjoy upon arrival. It's those personal touches that really make a difference and show how much she cares about her guests’ experience. Everything about the stay was smooth, comfortable, and enjoyable. I honestly can’t think of a single downside. I’d wholeheartedly recommend Catherine’s place to anyone looking for a relaxing and well-hosted getaway.

Let me just say, if i am ever in Tauranga again (from Florida), I know a fantastic B&B. Laura is a warm and welcoming host and her accommodation is clean, stylish, and comfortable. She is a detail person and it shows. We loved the neighborhood. Mount Maunganui was an easy drive and a great hike. The hot water pool at the base was relaxing. Laura cooked for us one night after a full day of activity. Delicious. Our stay at Laura's was a highlight of our NZ holiday.

When we opened the front door, we were amazed by the how close we were to the lake. We were thankful to have a grey, cold day…to light the fire, make a cuppa and watch the world go by outside. We woke to the sound of wind and when we looked out the bedroom windows, the ducks were riding the white caps on the lake. Do yourself a favour and book more than one night…it’s the perfect place to unwind

Danielle’s home was immaculate, peaceful and way bigger than the photos make the house look! There was plenty of space to lounge around and the swimming pool and well kept grounds were an added bonus.

Highly recommend this airbnb. The location was perfect being close to the beach the Mt and restaurants. Being dog friendly was great as well. We would stay again!

Lovely little room with a great view. We went knowing it was a room on one end of someones home so no surprises (I think this may have threw some reviewers). Waking up with a coffee and the view over the lake made it so we had trouble finding the will to leave in the morning. The host was responsive and gave us our privacy also.

Had an incredible stay here. It was very cozy, private and quiet, perfect way to relax and recharge. Everything you could need is available and easy to use. The outdoor bath was definitely a highlight of the stay. Will definitely come back again

Such a beautiful peaceful place surrounded by nature, Lauren was responsive when needing to contact her, the spa was beautiful especially under the stars. it was exactly what me and partner needed, perfect for a romantic getaway and to unwind. Bonus was leaving engaged 💍, we will definitely be back. Thank you again Lauren.

Hilary and Rob are fantastic hosts. Hilary is super friendly and accommodating. I simply inquired if there is a microwave at the place to heat up takeaway food (no big deal if there isn’t one), she went out of her way -and bought a brand new one before we checked in. We were amazed by her kindness and effort, we really appreciated it. The place is very peaceful with stunning view, highly recommended! Thank you Hilary and Rob for a fantastic stay 😊 Cheers, Ben and Rita

Hi Belinda and Andy We had an amazing stay! The ambiance of the place was perfect – calm, cozy, and beautifully arranged. Everything was so well-kept and thoughtfully set up. The view was absolutely stunning and made the experience even more special. We all had a great time and truly enjoyed every moment. The welcome card from you was such an unexpected and thoughtful touch – it really made us feel warmly welcomed, and we were so happy to see it. Thank you for the wonderful hospitality. Would definitely recommend and would love to come back again!😊

Catherine, David and labradorable miss Mills made us feel very welcome and at home. We were given some tips and recommendations while in Taupo and surrounds which was super helpful! The kitchenette was perfect for 2 people travelling, bonus points for being pet-friendly. Beware: the adorable doggo will visit you daily so watch out for those puppy eyes! -G&V

Having somewhere that is dog friendly was very helpful. I would book again. Very relaxing once I had settled in. Bed was very comfortable! Many thanks Lou
