Holiday rentals with outdoor seating in Kaiwaka

I absolutely loved everything about my stay at the Piki Cottage and can highly recommend it. It is so peaceful, private and relaxing, has everything you need, plus the hosts are so generous, friendly and quick responding. There are so many things to do in the surrounding area, or you can enjoy and explore this wonderful huge garden. I could have stayed forever. Thank you for everything!

A beautiful private home that is exceptionally designed, appointed, and decorated. Stunning and kept grounds, and absolute quiet at night. Cannot recommend enough.

A spectacular experience for my partner and I. We wished we could have booked more nights! The scenery, the spa pool and just everything about this place was perfect. A nice getaway from the noise back in Auckland. The host was very accommodating. We definitely will be coming back! 5+ Star rating from us.

It was a great stay and the hosts were very friendly and helpful to make sure we had everything we needed. Despite a couple of widespread power outages, the hosts still made sure our stay was as undisturbed as possible. And made sure we had power and a warm stay through bad weather. And they even offered for us to move or cancel before hand knowing the weather and the risks that we due.

We’ve stayed at many Mangawhai properties and this is a new favourite. Perfect location between estuary and surf beach. Mama and baby slept in the main house and couple with fur child in the self-contained sleep out. Superking bed was a treat, although the mattress too soft for us. The fire place is cosy and the birdsong so tranquil. House is elevated and private but neighbours are still close. A group nearby partied at night but were quiet by 10pm. Leeanne was a responsive, friendly and helpful host. The house has a homely and welcoming vibe . We will stay again!

An amazing stay! Gorgeous, comfortable space with everything you need to relax and put your feet up! Would come back 100 times

We had such a wonderful stay at Janice’s place! From the start, her communication was clear, friendly, and super helpful. The home itself had everything we needed and more—spacious, well-equipped, and really comfortable. The location was perfect for us, close to everything but still peaceful. There was plenty of room for our family to spread out and relax, which made a big difference. We’d definitely love to stay again!

Had a great time with a group of us girls. The place was perfect set up for movie nights and walkable distance to the beach! Super easy check in and check out and the place was spotless.

A lovely place! I had been experiencing some stress recently, so this was a great place to come to unwind. I thrashed it out on the nearby Mt Manaia- handy being in the area! Recommended. Plus shops etc not to far away by car. Comfy bed, clean, and just generally awesome. I should have read the place name properly/ used my common sense....couldn't go kayaking because of the tide (was low in the late afternoon and morning)- my fault for not figuring that out!! Just have to come back then 😉 Thanks guys, awesome place.

Great value for money in a good location. We didn't have the best weather so the Scrabble and Netflix came in handy. Lovely big clean bathroom and well equipped kitchen, it was just unfortunate the dishwasher was broken while we were there but it wasn't a biggie. Would recommend as a central location for day-tripping in the region.

One of my staff stayed at this accommodation. Her feedback is "Graham and Lea were very welcoming and attentive hosts. Their Airbnb is cosy with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The fresh bread and home made guava jam was a bonus! Would highly recommend staying here"

We had a lovely restful stay at Murray and Patsy's place. The view was amazing, the surroundings quiet and the accommodation was very clean, cosy and well equipped. We can recommend this place to anyone looking for a quiet and refreshing get away. We took our binoculars and had fun watching the ships heading for Auckland harbour, as well as a beautiful yacht and the odd small fishing boat. We look forward to coming again. Vidak and Nelliette

Leanne was a wonderful host; excellent with communication and very helpful. The accomodation has a stunning view and is beautifully kept - comfortable, clean and just right for our stay (a two-nighter). The location was excellent; close to the city which has wonderful restaurants - of note The Quay. Highly recommended.

Lovely property. It was absolutely immaculate and the gardens and views were beautiful

We had a great stay! The place was cozy, clean, and had everything we needed. We really enjoyed our time here and would definitely visit again. Highly recommended!

One of the best places we've stayed in. Had everything we could want for our 4 night stay. Great shower, bathroom with washer and dryer. Lovely and cosy in winter, barely needed the heater on. Big comfy bed and great selection of pillows. Fully equipped kitchen. Unfortunately couldn't use the BBQ and outdoor setting because of the wind and rain - we'll have to go back for that. Fantastic views over water to the Whangerai Heads. Could park right up close. Had access to a clothes line and outdoor sink - perfect for washing muddy shoes and golf clubs before our trip home.
