Holiday rentals with a patio in Aokautere

As per usual I had a beautifil stay at Karins country retreat. Thankyou, can’t wait for my next stay.

Absolutely perfect! Warm, clean, comfortable, private, quiet. Ticked all our boxes. Hopefully our base for Palmerston North visit in the future.

This generous sized, two bedroom place was aptly described as cosy! We stayed on a wet and cold weekend and yet we were warm and comfortable. Everything was new and clean and the beds were lovely. Allena was a great host and gave clear directions and instructions. We were very happy with our stay

Our second stay at this AirBnB. It ticked all the boxes we need when travelling for work.

Thanks so much for hosting my son and two of the students he coaches. He said the place was fantastic, well beyond what he was expecting. He felt very comfortable there. I so appreciated the communication beforehand and thank you so much for checking in with them to see if they needed additional blankets.

The apartment was pristine and cozy! We really appreciated Anna’s attention to detail with all the amenities and household features; the view was beautiful and our stay was absolute bliss.

Great stay in a cosy, modern, well appointed unit. Have stayed multiple times previously on work trips and would definitely recommend.

We had the absolute pleasure of staying in this stunning luxury apartment, and from start to finish, everything exceeded our expectations. The space was immaculate – spotlessly clean, beautifully presented, and incredibly well-appointed. Every detail had been thoughtfully considered, with stylish décor and high-end finishes throughout. The location was unbeatable, close to everything we needed yet peaceful and private. The apartment had everything we could possibly want and more – from fully equipped amenities to thoughtful personal touches that made it feel like a true home away from home. Our host was outstanding – responsive, warm, and genuinely attentive to every detail, ensuring a seamless and enjoyable stay. This was hands down one of the best Airbnbs we’ve ever stayed in. We highly recommend it and would return in a heartbeat. An amazing place and a five-star experience all the way.

Staying at Chris’s Airbnb was a truly wonderful experience. The home was spotless, beautifully styled, and had everything we needed to feel comfortable and at ease. Every detail felt thoughtful and welcoming — it was clear a lot of care had gone into making the space feel like a home away from home. But what made the stay truly memorable was Chris himself. From the beginning, his communication was warm, clear, and prompt. He was incredibly kind, attentive, and genuinely cared that we had a great experience. You can really tell when someone loves being a host — and Chris absolutely does. I couldn’t recommend this place enough. If you’re considering booking — do it. You’ll be in great hands and will leave with a smile. Thank you again, Chris — I look forward to returning someday!

This was a perfect for a weekend away. It is close to the beach and full of all day sun. The house was very clean and presented with lovely linen and touches. Rachel was so easy to deal with and very helpful. Thank you so much! We definitely recommend and look forward to returning.

Absolutely loved our stay at Andrew’s, it was so peaceful and surrounded by beautiful native bush, meaning the bird life was bountiful. The house was everything we needed, the fireplaces made us feel at home and cozy. Communication was great, and Catherine was super helpful and always available for questions. We’ll be back for sure!!

Bookdale was just gorgeous. It was clean, well appointed and comfortable. Every little detail had been carefully thought about and presented. Would highly recommend Bookdale & Whanganui as a cool place to visit.

Wow.! This is such a great place. Stunning views, immaculate presentation with everything thought of for guests including bread, cereals, jams, wine & chocolates. The house was warm and inviting and I could look at the view all day (the price you pay for the stairs).

thank you for a fabulous stay, traveled with three 70+ year olds and my granddaughter everyone enjoyed their stay, comfy beds and very well equipped, hot and cold breakfast items were very very thoughtful, loved our stay

Incredible views of the length of the river & valley. you overlook the mists too coming up from the river. Large rooms, lots of space run around in, loved the library, and the extra spaces to find if you also need a break from the chatter of a group.

This is the second time we have stayed at Deb's place. It is well equipped with everything you need including an extensive bookshelf and board games. There's lots of space, plus a balcony with an amazing view and a deck and garden out the back. We highly recommend this listing and would stay there again.
