Family-friendly holiday rentals in Oriental Bay

Well appointed and clean room with ensuite bathroom, kitchenette, couch and desk. A very comfortable stay, with a private entrance and garden area. The hosts David and Kerry are amazing, they made me feel right at home from the small treats and welcome goodies they left in the room, to showing me the local sites, public transport routes, walking trails and restaurants.

Great place to stay! The house was full of great books and games and had a very well stocked kitchen. The hosts were great communicating with us and we really enjoyed our weekend away. Definitely would return!

Beautiful house with amazing views. Clean and tidy. Well organized with all facilities. Enjoyed staying here. Simon is very friendly host and communication is easy. Highly recommend this place.

An absolutely gorgeous house in an idyllic spot, overlooking the Wellington Harbour. Guthrie Cottage had everything we needed, and nothing we didn't. The beds were comfortable, the central heating was amazing, and the water pressure good. The ideal location to get away from any hustle and bustle, and to be lulled to sleep by the sea on your doorstep. We had a very peaceful, relaxing stay at Guthrie Cottage - will be back!

Thank you Tania. Absolutely perfect for my daughter and I. We are country lovers so this couldn’t have been better for us. Loved looking at the horses out the window / door. Loved the sounds of the birds in the evening and the morning. I got a little confused finding the cottage at first as I went up the left driveway to the main house, not the right driveway. But was able to get hold of Tania promptly and she was able to redirect me. This is a beautiful rustic type cottage with the space really well thought out. I didn’t mind the kitchenette in the bathroom. Obviously as long as you keep everything sanitary as you use it it’s not an issue. Kind of the same situation if you were to stay in a caravan everything is close together amenities wise. Was nice and warm and super cosy. Would absolutely stay here again. Thanks so much for your kind, friendly and inviting hospitality.

What an amazing place, with a view even more stunning than it appears in the photo! Everyday I felt compelled to take a photo of the constantly changing scene laid out in a 180 degree panorama. Benoit was a very thoughtful and responsive host, and it was everything my family (two adults, two kids) needed for our visit to Wellington. It is a very comfortable and beautiful house, and a handy location including shops a few minutes drive away and a great cafe a few minutes walk down the path. Although looks a bit out of town on the map, it is a short and easy drive into the city. Oscar the cat was soon part of the family and our son was very sad to say goodbye!

Was great to have the space for a family get together. Was warm in bedrooms but needed the fire in the kitchen.

We had a wonderful stay. Natalie was a very good host. As soon as we arrived Cha Cha took us down to the river for a play. Samba the cat was very confident and fun too. The place is really nice and the tree house is super cosy and warm. In a safe and peaceful location. Would stay again.

Fantastic house for our young family, we stayed in August and it was nice and warm. Location is great, as well as the view. Good value for money. Really loved the underfloor heating in the bathroom and having the heat pump on when we arrived was a nice touch. Would definitely stay here again.

The perfect place for my stay in the capitol. Ticked all the boxes for me and was a pleasant place to stay. Very friendly host always makes a difference too.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The house is super clean, modern, tidy and has new appliances and so on. It felt quiet and private and has a big back yard and off street parking. Our host were communicative and responsive, and check in was super easy.

Haiying's tree top apartment is absolutely delightful - with stunning views of the bay and Wellington. We loved our short stay - just wished we had longer to enjoy it!

Miramar is a little gem, a lovely restaurant at hand, native bush a short walk away, there's trolls!, and a Brewery. what's not to like

We loved our stay at Little 6. Rochelle is a fantastic host - she communicated well, provided clear instructions, and was super responsive. From the homemade granola to coffee pods and bottle of juice, we were made to feel welcome. Titahi Bay is an awesome location to stay when travelling to Wellington. We usually stay in the CBD but opted for Titahi and loved the local Porirua Art Centre.

We loved our stay here. The flat is very spacious and had a great kitchen with everything you could need. It was really clean and homely. Super location in the city too. Would definitely come back!

A really GREAT stay for us in delightful Eastbourne even with NZ’s chilly winter. Quiet, cosy & VERY comfortable & all that you need. Rebecca Ann .. GREAT HOST .. always at hand. Recommend. Tee,N & Mash 🐾

We had a great weekend away that was made even better with Neil and Heathers beautiful loft. It was warm, immaculate, lovely linen and convenient to restaurants, supermarkets and expressway for easy on and off. Fabulous 10/10 Will stay again.

Sharron’s apartment is so beautiful. Our only regret of our trip was that we couldn’t spend more time here. We were so fortunate to meet Sharron, she was most helpful, and we had a lovely conversation. Our hope is to have an opportunity to see the breathtaking views in this gorgeous Mt. Victoria accommodation again some day. We are so grateful to Sharron for her hospitality and great recommendations.

The house was charming and larger than it looked in pictures. The king bed was super comfy and all of us slept so soundly (even my baby girl, who usually wakes up in the middle of night!). Location of the place was also good as we could drive to town within 10 mins. Sher was very hospitable and came over to greet us with fruits, milk and chocolate on our first night. It was a nice gesture and we appreciate it :) Thank you for having us. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend to our friends & families!

We stayed 2 nights at Jan and David’s place over a long weekend, while we explored the area and visited Kapiti Island (for the first time, it was great). The accommodation was exactly what we were looking for. Stylishly presented, very comfortable, an excellent ensuite (great shower). Jan and David were excellent hosts - very obliging ang welcoming. Would stay there again and recommend their place.
