Cottage holiday rentals in Hauraki Gulf / Tīkapa Moana

This is the this time I’ve stayed at Michelle’s beautiful cottage, but it won’t be my last. It is honestly such a thoughtfully designed and put together place, and I felt my stress dissolve the moment I arrived. Michelle is such a kind host & I am so grateful I’ve been lucky enough to stay at this amazing place. Thank you Michelle, from the bottom of my heart 💕

Peaceful stay right in the trees! This was such an epic Airbnb - so cozy and homey while also being very well equipped with everything you need. Beautifully and thoughtfully decorated and the spa was such a bonus. Stayed 3 nights here and wish I could have stayed longer - would definitely stay again if in the area. Mark was very kinda and quick to respond.

We had a great stay at Nicolette’s place, the view was amazing and it was so nice sitting in the hot tub looking at that view! I’d recommend a walk in Atiu Regional Park which is a 5 minute drive away - it has the same stunning views you can see from the property. Nicolette was very responsive and because nobody was checking in the next day kindly let us check out a little bit later We’d definitely stay again

Lovely place to stay and perfect to come back to after a full day hike.

Such a relaxing stay. Hot tub was a perfect place to unwind and watch the stars. Very peaceful and private! The place has very thing you need for a comfortable and cozy stay. Would recommend to anyone! We are excited to visit again :)

Great location, private walkway to the beach! Couldn get any better. Such an awesome cosy Bach. Easy check in and great communication! Thank you so much!! Would definitely stay here again!

Lovely place. My team were very happy staying there. Great communication from the hosts. Thanks so much. A+

This venue holds so many special memories for us. Even with the not-so-great weather over the long weekend, it was still the perfect spot to unwind and enjoy time with our loved ones. Huge thanks to Christina and David for sharing such a beautiful place!

Great spot on the hill with views down to the caves, well set up and the deck overlooking the fruit tree was really nice.

Gayle's place is beautiful and secluded. Great private deck to relax and enjoy Harbour view. A short drive to Tutukaka marina which was convenient for our diving trip. We had one small problem with hot water and Gayle resolved it super quickly after messaging her. A great host, and very responsive with messages.

The house provided us a peaceful retreat from the city. Our family and friends enjoyed a pleasant stay from Paul’s lovely house! Highly recommended :)

Fantastic views and space for the price! This is perfect for all types of occasions with a group of family or friends. The host was responsive and we were given clear instructions on everything regarding to the house, check in, directions, recycling, etc! Highly recommended!

Great spot in nature, everything needed and close enough to town.

Great little house with everything we needed. Short walk to the beach and some great places for brunch. Loved we could take our dog

Great location, very quiet, peaceful, had everything we needed. We enjoyed sitting on the front patio and watching the sun set and birds and even a couple bunnies. House was very quiet and a great size for our family of three.

We had the most wonderful stay at Bayleys place. The cottage is so spacious yet cozy and rustic. Perfect place for a relaxing and cuddling up next to the fire . Bayley was very accomodating and communication was great. Thank you so much we will be back !

We had a great stay and look forward to staying again. Really quiet, loved being able to sleep with the windows open and hear the waves at the beach. The cottage was spotless, beds were comfortable, lovely and private. The grounds are lovely. Ferry Landing is just gorgeous. There is a really strong feeling of a small friendly community. Very very safe place to stay. I'm besotted with the ferry, only a two minute easy walk down the road, jump on and pay on board ($8 return) and you are over in Whitianga within ten minutes. The ferry runs every 10 minutes. Thanks so much for the warm welcome and great holiday John.

What a stay! We absolutely loved our week, it was the perfect location for relaxing strolls along the beach and completely disconnecting from the world. The place was well appointed, had what we needed and was a pleasure to stay at. Bonus - the water pressure in the shower was fantastic!

Had a great weekend away at Aramis’s place, very peaceful

Wonderful stay, so glad we've already booked to stay again. Matt & Tanya we're extremely responsive and helpful, its like messaging friends. Would highly recommend.

Absolutely loved this beautiful cottage. Small home, immaculately clean and surrounded by beautiful gardens and a white picket fence. Very quiet. Could hear the birds. Our only neighbor was an avocado orchard. Very peaceful and private. simon was very helpful and responsive. His directions to the house were very useful and we found it easily.

We had a wonderful stay, it was the perfect base to do all the things on our list at Waihi Beach. Everything was spotlessly clean and we had all the things we could need, a great little home away from home.

Our night away was amazing. The location was absolutely stunning, nestled between olive groves, the place was even better than the photos. It had everything we needed and more. Just a short walk to the reserve, where we could take the kayaks across to a peaceful, quiet beach. The house itself was warm, cozy, and beautifully set up. Jo was incredibly accommodating and made everything easy. We’d absolutely come back!

Anna was great to deal with and very thoughtful and accommodating. the place was private and had great views and very clean and comfortable living areas and bedrooms.
