Holiday home in Waverley

Luxury Blacksands Ocean View Lodge

KristineRating, 5 stars1 month ago

My family took a 14 day road trip through NZ and this was one of our favorite accommodations! Very tidy house with a great layout. Comfortable beds with nice quality linens and spacious bathrooms. Kitchen included some thoughtful additional food supplies. The very best part was the access to the beach, which was everything I dreamed it would be and more for our nature-loving family.

Cabin in Norfolk

Norfolk Cottage

BárbaraRating, 5 stars1 month ago

We loved so much Rob’s place that we extended it even though the weather was not looking good for outdoor activities. It is very private, quiet and spacious. We had a lot of luggage but no issues to handle them in the house. Super comfortable bed, linen and fully equipped kitchen. There was also coffee, instant noodles and granola available, along with salt, pepper and oil which was great as we wanted to cook some local food during our stay. The washing machine made all the difference considering all the hiking and trail running we were doing in the area. Highly recommend this place.

Cabin in Mangorei

Pouakai Cabins - Bush Retreat

BlancaRating, 5 stars2 months ago

We can’t say enough about how peaceful, serene, and beautiful this cabin is. From the moment we arrived, we were surrounded by nature’s calm—the sounds, the views, and the overall stillness make this the perfect getaway. The location couldn’t be better: private enough to feel secluded, yet close enough to explore nearby attractions if you choose to venture out. What truly stood out was the attention to eco-friendly details. It’s clear that sustainability was thoughtfully considered in every aspect, which made our stay feel even more meaningful. The cabin’s commitment to the environment added a special layer of appreciation to the experience. The interior is just as inspiring, filled with beautiful, unique artwork that reflects a deep respect for both culture and history. Every piece tells a story and adds to the authentic charm of the space. We’re so grateful for the opportunity to stay here. It was more than just a place to rest—it was a place to reset. We’ll definitely be back.

Beachfront Dune House

LucyRating, 5 stars1 week ago

After a big day driving coming to the end of the road to discover this humble and homely surf shack right in the dunes was sublime. Incredible setting and views with serenity and time to unwind. The home is gorgeous, tastefully decorated and had that something special with high quality additions including smart TV, sound system and New Zealand made pottery. The artwork and books hint at the property and its owner's passion and connection to the area's true history. The surfing map and incredible images of the mountain were perfect. Could not be more grateful for the stay 🙏🏼

Teal-on-Fenton

MegRating, 5 stars5 months ago

We felt right at home straight away. Having the bedrooms spread out meant we could hear our youngest in the night, but our older children had peace and space to do their own thing. Miriske had thought of everything a guest could possibly need or want. The "forgot something?" basket is a genius idea. The house renovation is lovely, with only the shower to complete. The DVS and dehumidifier make the house dry and cosy. Thanks, Miriske!
