Family-friendly holiday rentals in Whakamārama

Such a beautiful home. We felt so at home, and the photos on the site does not do justice to her place. Will definitely come back again

Lauren and Sam This was a very lovely place right next to the lake. Can see the lake from the bed and there is heaps of ducks. Lauren and Sam were kind and responsive while also making sure your experience was private.

Joss and Wayne, the hosts, made our stay absolutely fantastic! They were so friendly and welcoming, and the log cabin was simply stunning. We had an incredible time there!

We had a wonderful stay at Gloria’s. absolute perfect for 3 kids under 5 with two adults. So much for the kids to do! Gloria had a huge range of toys available and the pool was perfect - beautifully heated and a nice area to be in. Full kitchen was great too. Definitely recommend 😊

The cottage is in a great location. It was smaller than expected and unfortunately we were unable to sit outside but otherwise the cottage was a great place for a relaxing vacation. Would recommend and stay there again. Thanks Sharon.

Thanks so much Chris & Bob! What precious, loving, kind, thoughtful, generous people you are! So refreshing to meet such lovely people who have become family. We know that anyone who has the privilege of meeting you both will be truly blessed! Everything about your place we loved especially our children who just adore you both and loved how you spent time with them teaching them all about nature. Thanks for loving our kids. My 7 year old cried himself to sleep on our last night because he didn't want to leave your beautiful place and lovely selves. Hes already begging to come back. Thanks for going over & above from your thoughtfulness in our dietary requirements to immaculate linen, the most cleanest cute lil place that had everything we needed. Having the Spa was a bonus & one of the highlights of our stay relaxing as a family & making the kids sleep well. Thanks for opening your hearts & home. In our short stay we love you already. Love Aisaka, Rebecca, Judah & Heaven xx

We had a lovely stay here. Peaceful but so entertaining for the children right on the park and across the road from the beach . A really lovely family holiday and so well equipped.

We had a lovely weekend, the house has a great view and was nice and warm - spa was a bonus. Thanks

Amazing, breathtaking view. Best place for me and bridesmaids before went to my wedding at Don Rowland. The only downfall is that the dam was closed at the time, it would have been a 5 minute drive but had to go right around via motorway (20 min) but the house itself was well worth it! Had everything we needed and more!!! I would consider going again just for a normal weekend. The hosts were accommodating in every way, we had access to kayaks, best coffee machine, comfy couches and beds, clean showers, a nice bbq, beautiful flowers, awesome neighbours, parking for about 3 cars and extra blankets and towels. 10/10 from us!

Beautiful property. So close to the biking trails. Peaceful setting. Happy chirping birdies. Well cared for property with a bounty of flora to brighten your spirits.

thanks Fiona, we loved our stay and would love to come back. such a great location . 10/10

What a great little spot. Felt like we were tucked away in the woods but close to everything we needed. Thanks for having us Jerry, absolutely wonderful to find a place willing to take on the 6 of us (2 humans and 4 dogs) we had a great stay. We will definitely be back

Great little place to stay, super close to the beach. We visited with our two year old and it was a perfect space for a family. Has everything you need. Would stay again.

Thank you, Yvonne, for providing such a peaceful and gorgeous home for us to have a lovely few days away in. It was exactly as listed - and so quiet and calming from the moment we entered. It’s super convenient to town, and despite its proximity to main roads, was amazingly quiet. The beds were super comfy, the showers were luxurious with great pressure, and we felt so well looked after. The kitchen had everything you could need. Just a shame we couldn’t stay longer! Would love to come back and will definitely recommend to friends and family heading in this direction. Thank you so very much!

Cute, warm and clean! Location close to cafes, mineral spa and beautiful walks

Great place for a short stay with our puppy in Tauranga, and not too far from most places that we wanted to go since we had a car. The room was warm, spacious and comfortable, had everything we needed. Jacqui has been responsive and helpful to our needs/questions. Walking distance to a beautiful park, which our puppy had such great time running around.

Great quality accomodation. Beautiful spot. Very easy communication.

Really enjoyed out stay. Fantastic location and a great sized apartment. The kids loved the pools and it was super convenient to have the use of 2 car parks. Thanks for having us and sorting out a porta cot. We'd love to come and 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.

Beautiful accomodation. We will be back

Really great stay for our little family. Clean, close to the beach and the pool and hot tub were fantastic. Really responsive when we had questions during our stay too!

We had a lovely stay with Liz and Wayne, the place was so tidy, and it was just like the pictures. It is handy to town and we loved being a little out of town and having the farm life around us. Liz and Wayne bent over backwards to make sure we had a great stay. We would definitely recommend and would love to stay again.

Great place for our family vacation. Kids LOVED the trampoline and playground. Only thing that was an issue was the sloping ceilings in the upstairs bedrooms - tall folks need to watch out for their head. Otherwise we loved the hospitality. Had snacks laid out for us , and just went the extra mile for us. Highly recommend this for families.

Beautiful stay. Excellent host. The animals were so lovely too. See you again soon 😊
