Harbour View - Maraetai Holiday Home
Had a great stay. Everything was just as described. Great location with beach just a short walk away. Huge backyard for our pups. Clean, lots of room, all the supplies you need.

Stay on WATER? Breathtaking views - Heart of CBD
Fab location in the heart of the city! Amazing deck overlooking the ferry building you could spend all day just watching the comings and goings. Easy walk to great eateries, Britomart and Commercial Bay. Amanda is a very responsive and thoughtful host.

Miro Beach House at Palm Beach
Great place to stay, just a few flat steps from Palm Beach.. recommend.

Gorgeous Mission Bay. 7 min to city. Spa & Parking

Putaki BAY VILLAS - Keru | Be My Guest Waiheke
Thoughtful hosts, wonderful property

Beachfront Sunset Bach
we've stayed at 6 bachs in Piha now, and this is the best. not cheap, but you get what you pay for. great facilities, great decor and lots of nice touches and location is unbeatable with views over the beach. one thing is that the upstairs and downstairs are 2 separate units both with their own bathrooms and kitchens. this would be great for 2 couples, one with a kid or two, but the levels are not internally connected. we just had it for the two of us and never went to the lower level.

Beach-Front Resort!
Fabulous stay in Maraetai - thank you Tina! Perfect location across from the jetty, playground and next door to the coffee shop. Great space to enjoy our family gathering. Awesome front lawn to play games and people watch.

The Waterfront 361 West
Had a lovely stay at Kathy’s place. Beds were comfy, kitchen well stocked, and really enjoyed the view from the dining area. Kathy was very helpful and kind. Weather had us changing plans but hope to come back in the future!

Private luxury villa to relax
Due to a mistake with Airbnb, I had to check out later than expected but Gali was more than welcoming and accommodating. A kind, friendly and interesting host. Great location to walk down to the beach, or just hang out on the balcony and take in the views. Gorgeous, can’t wait to come back.

Sunny Cheltenham Beach
We had a lovely stay at Bruce and Karen’s place. The property is only meters from the beach and in a very quiet area. Walking distance from Devonport (20min) but only minutes from local cafes and restaurants. Their place was clean and comfortable, with the main bedroom downstairs and the living area / extra bedroom upstairs, complete with a view of Rangitoto and the bay. Would definitely come back!

Big suite room! Heart location of Takapuna!
The host was incredibly helpful throughout my stay, always available to answer any questions or provide recommendations for things to do in the area. The place itself was spacious, clean, and tidy - everything I could ask for in an Airbnb. The amenities were top-notch, and the decor was modern and stylish. I felt right at home as soon as I arrived. The location was also perfect - with nearby transport available, it was easy to explore the surrounding area. All in all, I would highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone looking for a comfortable, convenient, and enjoyable stay. It's definitely worth the price, and I would happily return in the future. Thank you to the host for a wonderful experience!

Cosy cottage in prestigious Herne Bay suburb
Wonderful stay with wonderful host. Host was really friendly and provided great suggestions for Auckland touring. The location was quiet but close to fun restaurants. The unit was spotless and beautifully decorated. Comfy bed with nice linens. Everything you might need in kitchen, bath and closet. Lots of nice hangers in closet- my pet peeve. Like staying at a nice resort. Highly recommended.

Beachlands Waterfront Retreat
Great family stay for three generations. Local beaches are close by and all amenities you could need are not far by car. Shops for essentials are within easy walking distance. Something to do in all weathers

Coastal Palms Maraetai Beach Auckland NZ
We really enjoyed our stay. The unit is situated in a very quiet suburb with beautiful morning sunshine and seaviews. It was very clean and comfortable...my very tall husband appreciated the extra height of the shower too! Sheryll was a thoughtful host who went above and beyond to make our stay a special one. Would happily stay again and highly recommend.

Waiheke Romantic Beach Getaway
Paula was a great communicator and made sure we had a great stay. We were very happy with the location as it was walking distance to the beach and restaurants. We would highly recommend staying here!

Fabulous villa with sea view
Suyun was a great host and was very responsive in communications. We had a problem with one of the locks and he was extremely quick to respond and to bring someone over to fix the issue. The house has a beautiful lounge with a great view for relaxing.

Casa Bella
We had a fantastic Easter weekend at Santa and Graham’s beautiful North Shore home. As hosts, they were truly exceptional—warm, attentive, and incredibly generous with local tips that made our stay even more special. The home itself was spotless, thoughtfully laid out, and perfect for our family. The kitchen made mealtimes a breeze, and the bedroom was a calm, cozy haven after our days out exploring. It was a stay that blended comfort, care, and a true sense of welcome—one we’ll remember fondly and happily recommend to any family visiting Auckland.

Absolute Beachfront Paradise! Milford, North Shore
Pia was a wonderful host, welcoming us in person and making us feel right at home. Her place has the most well stocked kitchen I've ever seen in an Airbnb and it was so convenient to have little things like spices, cling wrap, etc. The apartment was furnished very thoughtfully and there is plenty of room to lounge around and relax. The location could not be better with the beach as your backyard. I would highly recommend anyone to stay here!

Boatsheds on the Bay - Boatshed #1
We had a beautiful, peaceful stay here! Both the interior and surrounding area were gorgeous. The bus stop was quite close with easy access to the rest of the island, but we also enjoyed walking through the quiet residential area and getting a glimpse of what life is like on the island. Thank you for the lovely stay, wish we could have stayed longer than a night!

Beachfront Penthouse - Kohi Del Mar
I cannot recommend Kohi Del Mar highly enough. As a family of four, both on holiday and working, it was a fabulous apartment. Great restaurant options within an easy walk, opposite the beach with great views and 15 mins into town. Treat yourself, you won’t be disappointed and it will feel like you’re really on holiday. Really happy with our choice.
