House vacation rentals in Canterbury

Amazing place. Beautiful inside and out (pool, patio dining, garden), modern, and immaculate. Everything was high quality from five star bedding to the well equipped kitchen. Hostess Jules was very responsive and friendly…The property sits in a nice neighborhood high above Christchurch, and our favorite part was on the other side (a short drive) - Taylor’s Mistake Beach and the world class walking trail above and past it. I don’t normally write reviews, but this place was really nice.

Fabulous house! Great setup for a group of friends. Large spacious bedrooms and a great outdoor space.

It was breathtaking. The views from the house were some of the best I have ever witnessed. It was such a beautiful and big house. The deck with the hot tub over looking the lake was heaven. The whole house was just perfection. Wish we could have stayed much longer. Just dreamy.

We had a great stay at the Woolshed. Emily was super accommodating around our last minute booking and met us on arrival to show us around. The location is stunning and access to the incredible sauna and other facilities was such a treat. As explained in the description, the Woolshed is right by a road and railway and so there was quite a lot of noise at night, but I wouldn’t let this put anyone off booking - it’s worth it for the rest of the experience!

Atypical and charming place. Our kids loved sleeping in the old stagecoach garage with the horse stools on display as decoration. Mike and Linda were very welcoming and showed us around the property which has many surprises in store! Despite the rainy weather we had a lovely time!

Exceptional! Luxurious and perfect for 4 couples on a motorbike tour of the South Island. Loved the pool and the whole property was first class. Highly recommended!

This is the 2nd time we have stayed at James's place and it was equally as good as the 1st time. For us Racing at Levels was magic, just being down the road. We were able to relax within a few minutes of the track. Plenty of room for a big Race Trailer. James a very responsive host and very helpful with early check in and being able to leave the trailer for an extra couple of hours after checkout. If James will have us & the house is free we will definately be staying again

We loved our stay as property was perfect for our small group. The pool and bbq area are great for enjoying time with family and friends. Would highly recommend.

This place was very tidy, comfortable and clean, great location and easy to use, good communication from the hosts. Basically did what it said on the box, and was a cool space

Our second time staying here. We love it, awesome location and perfect space for families. Great comms - super informative and quick responses. Thanks Sharon and Chris, we’ll be back :)

This is a great house being fully equipped with everything you need. It's light, airy and modern. The outdoor space is great too. And in a quiet neighbourhood. Just one recommendation - bring an eye mask if you like dark bedrooms. The master bedroom has modern white venetians, and these don't block out much light.

Nice airbnb, was really suitable for the family. Secure backyard to play, great facilities and fantastic location for enjoying Christchurch.

Beautiful location. I prioritise private and quiet locations and this place exceeded expectations. Close to town & lots of space. Highly recommended.

Bon‘s house is spacious and right on the beach, with walking distance to Kaikoura town centre. The kitchen was well equipped and the bathrooms clean. As mentioned by others, the place could use a few touch-ups and the lounge furniture is a little dated, but the photos are accurate and we slept really well. Good value for money!

Great place to stargaze. Clean and spacious. A large table.

Stayed for a week in this fabulous home away from home, having a well deserved rest from the world. Incredible views from every window. Completely private and silent. The house has everything you need, including comfy couches, a huge range of interesting books, comfortable beds, a deep bath, and big shower. The kitchen is perfect. We loved sitting on the deck at night watching the stars (as the house is within the Aoraki Mackenzie International Dark Sky Reserve). For those who are doing the A2O bike trail this would be a great place to stay.

Paula was great to communicate and made every effort to make our stay easy. The house is very equipped and is a great central location. Thank you

It was a great accommodation. I had a comfortable and enjoyable vacation. Thank you.

We enjoyed our stay at Jillian’s comfortable and well-appointed house. If you want a quiet, tranquil time this place will suit you. There is all-round sun and views of a lovely garden with rolling countryside and hills. There were freshly cut flowers in vases when we arrived. The fridge, freezer and pantry were well stocked. We thought the rental was very good value for money. Communications with Jillian were excellent.

Kate was very helpful and friendly. House was perfect for what we needed, well priced and tidy.

We had a great stay over xmas and new years, it was a really nice family space and an ideal base for relaxing and enjoying Reefton and the surrounding area. Communication with Alice and Eamon was quick and easy.

We have stayed in some great AirBnBs in our time but this tops them all. You don’t just get a sleepout or a converted garage you get a whole house. Not only that but because Gary lives in another house on the same large section he reacts immediately to any request without being intrusive. Not just a Super Host, a Super Duper Host.

Brilliant house with everything we needed and more. it was clean and comfortable with plenty if furniture as well as outdoor dining space. Sonia is a fabulous host who responded immediately to any questions and we could truly relax. Highly recommend this property.

A comfortable, clean little house with two bedrooms and a kitchen. Peaceful and well located for exploring the Kaikoura area.
