Beachfront holiday rentals in Ngakuta Bay

What an Amazing place, was only there for a nights sleep but boy was it cosy and had more than expected essentials. Place was easy to find and there is such a beautiful view of the harbour with all the sail boats Had quick response from the host as well Would go there again for a longer visit.

We had a beautifully relaxing and energising couple of days at Tira Ora. The hosts were super lovely, the place was full of rustic charm, animals and birds everywhere. The rooms were comfortable, home-cooked food was delicious, and the place so captivating, we were sorry to have to leave. Great for families, a real natural treat away from it all.

We had a wonderful family Christmas holiday by the sea. The location is amazing being on Queen Charlotte Sound with beautiful views across Waikawa and the sea. We went fishing from the jetty and very much appreciated the use of the paddle boards and kayak and hot tub. Its one of those places where you don't feel you need to 'go anywhere' but to just stay and relax which I guess is what holidays are for. It was hard to leave this holiday home

Great stay at Nicky and Tim’s place during Easter break. Very good communication from hosts and house was exactly as described. Full amenities provided and great spaces for our family to hang out in. Dogs loved the yard. Thanks for the stay.

This place is extraordinary and so are the beautiful family that host. We were welcomed, embraced, nurtured and extremely well-fed. We had the extra special treat of being there through Christmas and were warmly included with other guests in the most magnificent celebrations. The walks, animals birdlife and bush are out of this world and I can't recommend a visit enough. Shall return. Thank you beautiful whanau!

Me, my sis & dog loved our stay at David’s Airbnb! David was very helpful & welcoming. The airbnb was very tidy, warm and cosy. We had a long drive up as, we were driving from Invercargill so, to arrive with the stunning views this Airbnb gifts you felt very rewarding. Thanks!

Loved Ruth's place and really found an appreciation for the art. Awesome location nice and central to town and bars and restaurants close by with beautiful views and all the homely things you could need. Place was also really cosy and homely

We had an amazing stay at Ben’s house.Its in a great location and has a great fireplace: the beds were very comfortable and loved being able to use the kayaks. The Fejoa tree was enjoyed by the kids

We have had the most amazing stay! The apartment is even better than it looks in the photos! View to die for from the enormous balcony, super comfortable beds, high end appliances & friendly accommodating hosts… we don’t want to leave!

Fantastic spacious property, well maintained and equipped. Great views, safe parking, quiet. Short distance from Picton, excellent for Waikawa Marina, great views of the sound. Wonderful place to stay.

Kay’s cottage is gorgeous, looks exactly as the pictures do. The surroundings are something else and having access to the kayaks, paddle boards and dingy were a great assets. We arrived on a stunning Autumn day and go out onto the ocean right away.. Three bedroom are all close together upstairs and downstairs was a cosy open plan kitchen dining lounge area. The road there isn’t for the faint of heart but when you get there it’s very much worth it!! We wish we stayed longer.

Fantastic views. Cosy spacious house.

Sarah and Hamish are perfect hosts. Their place is definitely gorgeous and they are kind, thoughtful, helpful and a kiwitastic couple . Went above and beyond when transport issues arose. Thank you so much . Wish we'd had more time.... Gotta come back!! 😊 Thanks a million

Had an amazing stay at Little Break Tahunanui. Toni provided clear instructions and check in was a breeze. The place was just like in the photos and the water pressure in the bathrooms was fantastic. All in all we had an excellent stay. Would recommend.

This Airbnb exceeded our expectations. There was lots of room for the group of us. It had all the appliances and utensils needed in their kitchen. The hosts were great communicators and provided us with all the information we needed to get to the bnb and how to explore the surrounding areas.

We had English relatives with us and a 2 year old and everyone was impressed. Nessie loved all the toys and we forgot the pram but there was a buggy for us to use!

The setting is stunning. We watched bio-fluorescence at night and rays cruise by in the morning - wow. Look, the house is older, definitely quirky!

Absolutely one of the best spots we’ve been. The house is very clean and nicely appointed to the best possible view. The host is very helpful and really went out of way by helping us prepare the clean sheets and linen at the last minute, which really made our day easy. Thank you so much Brad for hosting us and offering us the best new year!

Marty and Sabine are wonderful hosts. They are long term residents and have lovingly created their home in this exquisite location. You cannot find a more peaceful and soulful spot. Swim, hike, read a book and be grateful that you landed here!
