Bungalow vacation rentals in Te Ika-a-Māui / North Island

Absolutely perfect for us. Get escape away from people and just super relaxing watching the ocean views. The Bach is the typical kiwi bach very easy to feel at home. We will definitely stay again if we can.

absolutely amazing stay in Fionas Bach. beautiful home, with everything you could need for a break away. well stocked kitchen, coffee machine, dog bowls and loads of entertainment. played the quiz game on the ps3 on a rainy day. beach Is stunning, lovely to have direct access from the garden. private and suitable for kids and dogs. beach cafe was 7 min walk away and great for last min supplies. thank you so much for a wonderful break with family.

This is a very special place out in the beautiful country of New Zealand. Perfect if you want to get away from the city and like fishing. John was supper helpful with recommendations and with any questions we had. We will be back. Mahalo!!

The host is an excellent communicator, easy to understand instructions. The stay was comfortable, relaxing, and warm. Totally recommend if you need a little get away for the weekend.

From the moment we arrived we felt at home, the home was well presented and the views stunning. Alot of games in the drawers which we played. The 2 kitchens really worked as we stayed down stairs and didn’t have to walk upstairs for coffee. Awesome neighbours and beautiful home.

Very nice traditional kiwi bach perfectly located for our needs

We had a great stay! Beautiful views and spent the weekend fishing and relaxing. Even got to use the kayaks..great spot to be! Thanks Jasmine :)

A charming beachfront property with an old homestead along with a modern studio/cottage. We stayed in the cottage. It was well equipped with everything we needed. Sue and James were excellent hosts with plenty of local knowledge and great suggestions for activities with our children. The kids fished in the stream and played on the swings. We had a lovely time and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful, kiwi holiday experience!

We loved staying at Janet's place in Waimarama. It is set in a great location - just a hop and a skip from the beach - and the house itself is cosy and comfortable with everything needed for an enjoyable holiday.

It was a good staying. I especially like the spacious backyard and a laundry area. Thank you for the delicious apples, too.

Ryan's place is exactly as described. The contactless (and hassle free) check in made the surf shack feel like it was my personal space. I could really see myself living in a place like this! Close to direct beach access and with several coffee and brunch spots near by, this accom was the perfect place to unwind!

Sarah's airbnb was amazing. It was clean and photo worthy and prep venue for our wedding. The instructions were simple and communication aas great. We enjoyed our stay!

This is the *perfect* place to stay. Only a 15 minute drive to Piha Beach— which was one of my favorite spots to visit (LOVED the Piha Store for morning coffee & lunch), and about a 40 minute drive to Auckland. Everything about this space was beautiful. From the stillness and peace of the rainforest, to the lovely architecture and interior design. We couldn’t have picked a better place to stay for our first visit to NZ. 🤍

Beautiful home with gorgeous art, thoughtfully decorated with all the amenities you need. Beds and linens were comfortable and the home was very cozy. We were so thankful for the accommodations on short notice and all the local recommendations. Easy walk to plenty of great restaurants and parks nearby were great for our kids. Thank you!!

Amazing retreat spot with all of the amenities to rest and recharge. A wonderful place to hang out between activities and the house was its own desired destination. Would stay there again in a heartbeat!

Extremely comfortable and clean, the best views in Russell and the sound of the ocean to fall asleep to. Exceeded expectation in every way. Mark.
