Family-friendly holiday rentals in Wairau Valley

What a great place perfect for us and even room for the next time when our 3rd daughter can stay too- beautiful waterfront excellent location with a Woolworths metro literally across the road and walking distance to viaduct restaurants- in fact we walked into town it was lovely . The carpark(s) was very handy and Kim messaged us with clear instructions and her communication was exceptional. She kindly allowed us early check in and late check out which is invaluable when you have a short stay like a long weekend. Would definitely consider coming back the next time we stay in Auckland.

My partner and I had a wonderful weekend stay. The place was incredibly quiet and private, perfect for a relaxing getaway. We really appreciated the lovely personal touches that made our holiday feel extra special. Everything was clearly prepared with care. Check-in and check-out were seamless, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. We’d absolutely stay here again.

We had an awesome time at the Beachside Bliss. Everything was just WOW. Ian made us feel right at home. The layout of the place is so kids friendly and safe. Loved the peace and quiet and a very clean beach. We are sure to come back soon. 101% recommended! Thank you Ian for sharing your lovely home and space with us🙏

Our 2 days spent at the chalet was a memorable and amazing stay. We felt close to nature and coming from the islands, we felt right at home. So peaceful, quiet with bird chirps everytime we step out. Love everything about the Chalet. Thank you Charles. Highly recommended to everyone.

This place is absolutely astonishing! I came here with my family for a few days and am so glad that we did. This place has one of the best views I have ever seen, you can see both sunset and sunrise from the same deck! Anyways, absolutely a highlight of the trip so far and can’t wait to come back!

This was our third stay. Very comfortable and a great location.

George is a fantastic host, going above and beyond in his communication. He thought of everything. The space is secluded and beautiful and just as described. Would definitely stay again!

Completely met our needs, great spot. Comms excellent. Pool, spa and sauna a bonus. Would stay again

Wow, absolutely stunning views! Mark’s place was very spacious and lots of natural light. We only stayed a night, but wished we could have stayed for the whole weekend! It’s a small stroll to the sea and a little shop that sells some delicious toasties.

This was the perfect place to stay for a beautiful and relaxing long weekend. We could not have asked for anything more. Highly recommend

Feeling very refreshed after 2 lovely days spent at the magical Bethells Beach. Mary’s spot is a so peaceful, cosy and the perfect location to unwind for the weekend. Mary was incredibly helpful and kind and provided some great suggestions of the area. An extra special treat is Mary making us a yummy breakfast with eggs from her 4 local ladies and a delicious cup on coffee. It truly was a 5* stay and we can’t wait to come back.

Ian and Ailsa were fabulous hosts and their place was good for a couple nights in Titirangi. Beautiful area and close to good restaurants and walks.

I booked Emma's place for my bridal team to get ready in. Space-wise, it was perfect, gorgeous views, and amazing communication with the host. We had a slight hiccup with the microwave not being cleaned properly, but Emma was so quick to resolve the issue that it was like it never happened. 10/10 recommend!!

We stayed for a few days during the off season. Wonderful location and a very comfortable place for a couple with a young one.

i've stayed at Brendon and Sali's places a few times now and we've become good friends. They will always be my first choice for accomodation when I come back to Auckland. The Cottage is well-located to take advantage of everything The Bays have to offer.

We arrived in a storm and walking into a prewarmed house was amazing. Lots of space, sitting rooms and bedrooms as described. Open fire was lovely on our second night and sitting outside in the sun for breakfast was my favorite. Kitchen was well stocked with equipment, plates and was clean. We really enjoyed our stay.

Sarah's place was a peaceful retreat in a beautiful neighborhood setting. It featured a spacious loft with everything I needed including a comfortable bed, cozy sitting area, large desk, and a terrific shower. Very walkable to Mount Eden and the village nearby with a variety of restaurants and shops. Sarah was easy to contact and always responsive to questions. I highly recommend Sarah's place as an excellent choice in lodging if you are visiting Auckland.

Had an amazing stay ❤️ Would stay there again.

The retreat is set in an idyllic location, surrounded by lush greenery and the calming sounds of nature. Its Mexican-inspired architecture is a feast for the eyes—think hand-painted tiles, rich wooden beams, and terracotta roofs. The lush gardens that surround the property feature native plants and flowers, providing an authentic Mexican aesthetic that truly transports you to another world. The retreat feels like a private sanctuary, far removed from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. One of the retreat's crown jewels is its stunning swimming pool, which is perfectly framed by the surrounding landscape. The pool’s waterfall is beautiful, the water is crystal-clear, making it a great place to take a dip or lounge under the sun. For an extra touch of luxury, there is also a heated spa pool that offers complete tranquility. The spa pool is perfect for a relaxing soak while enjoying the natural beauty of the area. A true gem that blends luxury, culture, and relaxation effortlessly.

Best location for Auckland CBD ! We really appreciated the convenience of the location of this spacious and airy flat. It is walkable to many places in Auckland’s CBD ! Beds are very comfy and great shower too ! We also want to thank our hosts for the quick responses and flexible check in ! Many, many thanks !

Wonderful apartment and a great location. Very clean, well maintained and equipped with everything for a lovely stay. Would go back.

Charming apartment in a great spot to see Auckland.

How an airbnb should be. Anna & Brian have created such a welcoming, peaceful oasis with all of the personal touches that make staying here so wonderful. A short drive from Auckland and you feel you're in the middle of nowhere (in the best way). A bottle of wine, homemade cake & bread, breakfast provisions (so many eggs we couldn't finish them all) topped off with a well kept tennis court, pool & spa - in a gorgeous apartment-like setting, we couldn't have asked for more. A great place to stay.

The Airbnb was as described in the ad, no bad surprises. It had everything we needed for a few days stay. We really appreciated being able to park our van just there, and the gym/pool was a really nice bonus. It was very quiet in the mid morning so we had the all gym to ourselves. Also really enjoyed the washer dryer to get our laundry done.
