Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Oceania

Tony was a brilliant host, gave so much useful information and was very responsive with any queries we had. The house is absolutely fantastic, the view is absolutely stunning and beautiful to wake up to. Would visit again!

we had a lovely weekend at SaltHouse. our little pooch enjoyed the fully enclosed yard, and the gas fire place worked a treat on the cold nights.

Great location, easy access to public transport and amenities. Beautifully decorated, a lovely space to escape to.

Glenn was fantastic and a great host! He greeted us with umbrellas when it was raining heavy and also drove us to town to get our rental car. Glenn went out of his way to make us feel so welcomed.

Fantastic place all around. it was spacious, clean and looked exactly like the photos. Location was great, almost felt like it was in the middle of nowhere with the views and distance between neighbours. The sauna was a hit - instructions were easy to follow and a great way to relax. Jay was very responsive whenever I had a question and amenities were as listed. It was overall a fantastic experience for our group!

Lovely getaway! We really enjoyed our relaxing mid week stay - lots of walking, sitting by the fire, and the home was comfy and spotless. Definitely would agree that you should pack your cheese platters and most meals for ease. Would love to come back again soon!

A very very nice forest/beach residence. Private and peaceful. The tui are the only noises you hear from the neighbours. Recommended

French style is very photogenic, close to the lake, 100 meters walk, close to the Good Shepherd Church, 5 minutes walk, great for shooting the Milky Way at night, of course, the lake in front of the homestay is also the best place to shoot the Milky Way.After passing the church, there is a supermarket across the bridge where you can buy food and souvenirs, as well as some food and drinks. The kitchen of the homestay is well equipped with cooking utensils, and it is convenient to cook your own meals.The heater was already on when I checked in, which was very thoughtful.

Is this little slice of paradise had to be summed up in one word.. it would be Stunning. Stu has gone above and beyond to create an aesthetically pleasing yet warm space, thoughtfully decorated and appointed. Get ready to leave your stay rejuvenated and relaxed!

We had a wonderful stay, Made was beyond helpful and responsive. He is a wonderful host, he was responsive helped with all our questions and gave us rides everywhere we needed. He was very patient with us too because we didn’t know what we wanted to do. the villa is very private and clean. They gave us all the amenities we needed. The only thing is that there wasn’t many restaurants around and it’s not too close to the main town. It’s a 15 minute drive but besides that I highly recommend staying here. Made is a wonderful person and he made our stay special.

Love the ambience, incredible and convenient location with stunning views. The place was super cozy and had a very homey vibe. Toilet floors are heated which is something that we did not know we needed haha - mind blowing. This airbnb blew our expectations out of the water.

Julie's place is a fantastic place to stay in Hobart. It was super convenient, cozy and peaceful, and we felt right at home. There was even a lovely little box of treats on the dining table waiting for us when we arrived! Would highly recommend this place.

Excellent, with a beautiful view.

Had a great weekend in Queenstown staying at Charlie and Rob’s. It’s a great set up, my friends and I loved it. I’d also strongly consider bringing my wife and kids back here, as the apartment would be perfect for families also.

One of the best stays we’ve ever had. The place was incredible, spotless, so well furnished and comfortable. Just incredible.

Emily has created a beautiful haven at Howards end. It felt so inviting to walk into and the impeccable styling throughout was a visual treat. The bed was super comfortable and furnishings divine. I can't wait to book my next stay. Thank you Emily. 🤍

We were so impressed from the moment we arrived here. It was welcoming and inviting with everything you could need provided for a stay. The hosts were responsive and friendly and we would’ve stayed longer if we could. A short walk to the beach and local restaurants and shops also. We will definitely book again next time we are in the area . 5* highly recommended.

Fantastic stay away. Warm, cosy, rained the whole weekend but didn’t matter as we were able to spend the weekend adventuring local towns and watching the rain come over the mountains through the ceiling high glass windows. Fireplace was perfect, we were able to have our boarder collie with us (who also enjoyed sleeping by the indoor fireplace) Wayne and Jodie and made a beautiful handmade breakfast basket for us for the first morning with fresh baked bread, delicious passion fruit butter and more. The perfect weekend to de-stress.

Superb and attentive hosts. Organised everything for us from arrival at the airport to departure. Villa was beautiful and kept clean. Really enjoyable stay. Will be back again.

We stayed for a full week and used the house as a base to explore Nelson and surrounds, Havelock (where we took a boat into the Sounds and Blenheim / wineries. After a day exploring, and some days when we didn’t leave the house, we lapped up the views and quiet time - card games, reading, cooking, drinking great NZ wine. The sauna and wood fired hot tub was amazing especially when the skies were clear. The views are spectacular! The drive up the hill is as described (terrifying in the wild wind and rain we had!). Make sure you book a 4WD or an all wheel drive as NZ weather is famously unpredictable. Great hosts who thought of all the small touches and were super responsive.

It was such an incredible trip! Isla was very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. The place itself is amazing—clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. Highly recommended!

We have just come home from a fabulous 2 nights in Wainui at Caro's house. We were 7 Ladies. There was plenty of room for all of us and the beds were super comfy and warm. The weather was horrendous for our weekend, but that didn't matter at all. The views over the Akaroa Heads with the weather coming in was spectacular. Caro had lit the fire for us for our arrival which was very much appreciated. The kitchen is very well equipped and there is a dining table in the kitchen area as well as the lounge room. The hydrangea's in the garden are beautiful. We absolutely loved staying here and will definitely be back. We would love to arrange a summer vacation so we can sit out on the verandah in the sun. Highly recommend Caro's house. Thank you Caro. Your communication was excellent and we really appreciated the late check out.

Wonderful stay, just a peaceful beautiful location, lovely gardens, surroundings were magical. Lisa was a delight, and I enjoyed every moment. The spa is perfect. Didn’t need for anything, plenty of firewood and pinecones! Just lovely. Thank you Lisa it was a pleasure to meet you!

We had a lovely stay at Jana's luxury hideaway! It was peaceful, private, and beautiful - the perfect place to enjoy some rest and relaxation. Everything was thoughtfully curated, and it was clear how much care had gone into creating this amazing retreat. We enjoyed swimming in the magnesium pool, cooking on the BBQ, strolling through the bamboo gardens, relaxing by the fireplace and campfire, and so much more. Jana was also incredibly accommodating and always just a message away. Highly recommended and we’ll definitely be back!
