The Pines Guesthouse - new re-list

SamuelRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Stu’s guesthouse was a lovely getaway in New Zealand! Close to Queenstown, ZQN airport, and to many outdoor activities. Very peaceful and private, soft linens, and felt right at home. It’s clear that this is not a cookie cutter Airbnb, but a real guesthouse, and it shows in the fit and finish of the property, and Stu’s helpful and kind approach to hosting. I would stay again in a heartbeat!

Private Self Contained great reviews. Long Stay👍

SherryRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
We loved our stay at Robyn’s Airbnb. It was located a short drive away from both the city centre and the airport. The Airbnb was very clean and a great size for the two of us and all of our luggage and the bed was super comfortable. We were made to feel very welcome from the moment we drove onto the property.

Very peaceful, private and sunny. Felt like it was brand new. Anita is so friendly. And the home made bread was delish! Would highly recommend.

TaniaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Linda was such a great host! She organised an amazing breakfast plate for us to enjoy over the two days. Provided toys and bath items for the baby. And gave us all the blankets to make sure we would be warm. She left some food for us to feed the sheep, that was very nice of her. We were able to walk around the property and meet the dog :)

Hill top luxury guest unit with superb sea views

SuzanneRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Outstanding property just beautiful. By far the best Airbnb we have stayed at. Lots of surprise added extras chocolates on arrival, selection of herbal teas, coffee machine, selection of cereals for breakfast. Every part of this place had those little extras. Extra towels, perfect bathroom, with good hot water pressure. lovely linen on a good quality comfortable bed. The place was perfectly cleaned, warm, quiet and private with the most magnificent view. This new modern place is a must stay for anyone passing though it’s just beautiful.

Peninsula Bay Guest House

YiXuanRating, 5 stars1 day ago
We had an unforgettable four days here — it was so comfy that we ended up extending our stay! It truly felt like home. You’ll be amazed by all the thoughtful little touches Sharon and Brad have put into the place. Highly recommend! Will definitely come back again. We have to mention that Jet is the most friendly, adorable and gentle four legged fluffy friend we’ve ever met! We loved he’s visit and he definitely elevated the whole experience

Stylish & private dog-friendly Studio in Methven

RafaelRating, 5 stars5 days ago
Clare’s studio in Methven is an absolute gem! The place is incredibly peaceful and beautifully set up – perfect for a relaxing getaway. Everything was spotless and thoughtfully arranged, making it feel like a little retreat. Clare is a fantastic host, super responsive and easy to communicate with throughout the whole stay. For the price, the value is honestly unbeatable. I felt like I got way more than I paid for. I’ll definitely be booking again next time I’m in the area. Highly recommend!

Mountain view Cottage

DeepakRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We had a wonderful stay at Zelda’s place in Twizel! The apartment was cozy, clean, and had a beautiful view of the mountains — truly a perfect spot to unwind. Its location was also ideal, being just a short drive to the town center with easy access to supermarkets and great local restaurants. Zelda was an incredibly kind and welcoming host, and we really appreciated her hospitality. It was also such a joy to meet her lovely dog, Bea — she made our stay even more special. Thank you for sharing your beautiful space with us, Zelda. We’d love to return one day!

Off The Beaten Track - The Country Cottage

PeterRating, 5 stars1 month ago
A lovely warm and comfortable cottage in beautiful private surroundings an easy 15 minute drive from Hokitika township. Deborah made us feel right at home and gave useful suggestions for local walks and things to do. Having a fully equipped kitchen was great, and the king-size bed was very comfortable. We highly recommend the cottage to others and hope we can stay again in the future.

Deerbrooke Kaikōura Chalets Unit 1

FayeRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
This is the second time my Husband and I have stayed here, and it is literally perfect. As long as it's available it will always be our first choice. The home itself is stunning, cosy, all new and so pristine. The hosts go out of their way to make you feel at home, leaving coffee, tea, hot chocolate etc, bread, spreads, cereal, milk, yogurts and fruit, as well as a couple of drinks to celebrate a trip away. They also leave feed for the beautiful deer, sheep and alpaca who are so friendly and will eat from your hand! The view from this place is breathtaking, and only a 10 minute drive to the beach and town. Perfect!

The Fox private and central

JasonRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We had a fantastic stay in Oxford at Helen’s stunning Airbnb. Cosy warm private, beautifully done with lots of homely touches. The fireplace was a huge bonus. Great little town with everything you need to get away. Had a few challenges getting the address due to the late check in but once that was sorted everything else was very smooth. Would definitely recommend this place and we would love to stay again

Modern & Cosy Timber Guesthouse

JanetRating, 5 stars2 days ago
This is a great cottage to stay in while visiting Christchurch. It's close to the city, but not in it. Instead, one gets a beautiful view from a hill above, but it's also a short drive to restaurants and a grocery store. Every thing in the cottage felt new and cared for. We visited during the colder months, so we appreciated the electric fireplace and radiator, plus the heater in the bathroom. Carol and Ken also provided special treats and a small container of milk--much appreciated for our morning coffee. I can highly recommend this cottage.
