Vacation home rentals in Te Ika-a-Māui / North Island

If you’re ever in Taupo, stay here! The apartment is pristine and has a gorgeous view of Lake Taupo. Vicky was very accommodating and allowed us to check in early. The beds were so comfortable and there was plenty of space. My only regret is that we didn’t get to spend more time there as we were in Taupo for business. Absolutely recommend!

I loved staying here so much. So beautiful, right on the beach, can't ask for better than that. The view from the deck and inside was so nice. You can hear the waves inside the unit. The cable bay store is very close. Such a lovely place in the far north. I would love to stay here again.

Kiwiana at its finest a Bach at the beach comfortable made me want to move back to NZ

We had a lovely stay. Beautiful setting. Loved the updated bathroom although rest of the unit had the Kiwi bach feel. Washing machine was helpful to have in the unit.

Great location and had everything we needed. Ian was friendly and helpful. We had an issue with the washing machine and he sent someone out straight away. Would come back for our next stay.

Great stay at James house. Beautiful view. Plenty of sleeping arrangements.

Susan’s place was absolutely perfect for us. The location and beautiful, peaceful gardens surrounding the apartment were just stunning. We had the most amazing time and plenty of much needed rest. Thank you so much Susan. We have recommended Nikau apartments to all our friends and family.

This was the perfect weekend get away for us and our spoodle. The apartment is well presented and in a peacful location . Aprilanne and William are great hosts. They have thought of every detail to make your stay enjoyable, freshly baked bread, home made yogurt and fresh eggs. If you like walking, bird watching and fabulous views then this is the place for you.

Lovely place to stay at, Great views. We left our iPods in the place and Jill emailed me to say we had left them there, we had just returned our hire car so she drove into Picton about 5 kilometres to return them to me. This is what makes a great host.

It’s a really nice place to stay, we had a great time there.😌

Beautiful home and we had a great stay. No issues with anything

Thanks Susan, we really enjoyed our stay. Your place is a fantastic location- nice and easy walk to beach, and we liked the comfortable vibe your place has.

Cosy and stylish, a lovely wee spot for a girls weekend.

Delightful spacious apartment in quiet neighbourhood with great view from the patio. Very welcoming and friendly hosts. Everything we needed was supplied, including parking. Short drive to grocery stores, and beautiful walks in the area. Easy short drive to The Basin for restaurants and cafes and gentle strolls. Highly recommended.

We had such a lovely stay at this scenic little Airbnb in Spring Creek, Blenheim. It’s tucked away in a peaceful spot with beautiful gardens all around – the perfect place to relax. The space felt very secure and private, though we were always warmly greeted by the hosts' adorable dogs who came bouncing up to say hello – such a lovely welcome every time. We booked very last minute, on the same day, and Matt and Anna were incredibly accommodating – they had the place ready for us within just a few hours and went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. They were very proactive hosts, friendly and happy to help with any questions or issues. The location is super convenient too – just a short walk to the local Four Square and only a quick drive into Blenheim. The bed was really comfy, and we loved having a kitchen to cook in. All in all, a cosy, welcoming place to stay – highly recommend! ChatGPT

wonderful hosts, very clean and well presented, all facilities provided. We stayed 3 nights but could easily do a week as it's quite roomy inside and there is a very nice outside sitting area

Great location and the place was like new. Excellent, comfortable place to stay.

A beautiful home away from home. This has to be in our top 2 of places we have stayed at. Views, location, amenities, hygiene, Amy's place excels in all categories. Thank you for providing such a wonderful service.

What can I say beautiful home in a n idyllic place, the amenities at Jillian’s were great, the games room catered for the kids well . Walking distance to beach and cafe was a bonus. Would highly recommend 😊

Great place to stay and break up the drive to Wellington with our two dogs and babies.

Lovely peaceful house perfectly placed to the bike trails that we were there for and also not far from the city centre. Kitchen was really well equipped and the beds comfortable.

We loved our stay, the location was absolutely perfect and it was so nice to be able to easily walk to the beach, the mount, local cafes, restaurants and shops. The apartment was stylish, clean, spacious and had everything we needed. We hope to stay again sometime!

Beautiful place to stay and spend your weekend and Anna is great host.

Don's place was perfect for our family stay. There were 15 of us in total, with seven children ranging from 3 to 16 in age. The house had plenty of room inside and out and we made good use of the BBQ and decking dining table. We particularly appreciated that each of the four families had their own bathroom and toilet. The only minor issue was that the bunkroom bunks have little headspace (which Don mentioned in advance), which wasn't ideal for the older children. Don is an excellent host, very welcoming, and easily contactable. If the opportunity arises, we would certainly wish to return.
