House rentals with a pool

Relax & unwind in Matua.
I would like to say that Rose & Wal were very welcoming, especially after a very long drive from Taranaki to Tauranga due to an unfortunate crash on the Awakino gorge. Everything was really cleaned and fresh. Next time i would like to bring my family and spend a good couple of days to enjoy the beautiful city more. Thanks again Rose and Wal.

(3) Friendly Pan Home
Fantastic accommodation and hosts. The house is lovely and well equipped. The back deck and pool area is amazing. Very secluded. The hosts were also very helpful at returning a couple of items left behind. Top accommodation.

Bring everyone!
great place to stay. the owner had great communication and understanding of our requests

All Welcome Premium Property SkyLine
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.

Great Place For A Family Stay
Well presented house, is fairly central to where we wanted to go, only 22 minutes from the mount and 13 min from Tauranga so not too bad, good communication from the host and the pool was an added bonus.

Tara was easy to deal with and place was clean and tidy. House had plenty of room and an excellent outdoor area including a pool to relax and refresh. Would definitely stay again.

Just a hop and a skip to the beach
We had a lovely time and there is plenty to like about Kristie's place. Obviously the proximity to the beach but also the outdoor shower setting and large porch were standouts for me. We were travelling with 3 large dogs so the fully fenced front yard was great. Very clean and well presented.

#WaihiBeachHive❤️Huge Bach❤️300m to Beachfront
Lynley’s holiday home is spacious and perfect for large families/groups. The home is well presented and well designed. It is a lovely place to relax and has excellent spots for everyone to come together.

Superb Mt Location
We had a very enjoyable stay at Jane's place. Set in a very peaceful location. A short walk to the shopping centre and a short drive to the Mount. Easy check-in. Instructions were detailed and easy to follow. A very comfortable home. Would recommend.

Quiet Oasis. Private, peaceful.
Mike's place was nice and clean and had heaps of space for our baby to crawl around. The washer and dryer were very handy. We loved the spa too.

Tropical Luxurious Oasis with Saltwater Pool
Catherine's place exceeded all expectations. The space itself was incredibly roomy, making it perfect for relaxing, spending time with others, or just enjoying some quiet downtime. There were plenty of things to do, which kept everyone entertained throughout the stay—whether it was exploring the surroundings or enjoying the pool, reading books and playing the piano. What really stood out, though, was Catherine's hospitality. She went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, leaving a handwritten note and some thoughtful snacks for us to enjoy upon arrival. It's those personal touches that really make a difference and show how much she cares about her guests’ experience. Everything about the stay was smooth, comfortable, and enjoyable. I honestly can’t think of a single downside. I’d wholeheartedly recommend Catherine’s place to anyone looking for a relaxing and well-hosted getaway.

Beach house with style! Sleeps 6.
It was a good fit for our whole family, including our small dog. The location was a highlight, with the beach just a short walk away. The living area was cosy and worked really well for relaxing and watching movies on the rainy days.

Entire floor in modern Mt Maunganui beach home
Dave was communicative and flexible, and the place was clean and had everything we needed. Highly recommended.

Groovy on Grey
Clear instructions from host for check in and facilities. Clear printed house manual. House was clean and kitchen well appointed. Very quiet environment. With helpful tips from host, we had a fantastic dinner at Urbano Bistro, their foods are good. As weather was too cold during our stay, we couldn’t have chance to enjoy the hot tub. But host did leave the entrance air cond on so we have a warm (😊) welcome when we check in after a long day and drive after Hobbiton, great host.
