Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Waikato River

Amazing, breathtaking view. Best place for me and bridesmaids before went to my wedding at Don Rowland. The only downfall is that the dam was closed at the time, it would have been a 5 minute drive but had to go right around via motorway (20 min) but the house itself was well worth it! Had everything we needed and more!!! I would consider going again just for a normal weekend. The hosts were accommodating in every way, we had access to kayaks, best coffee machine, comfy couches and beds, clean showers, a nice bbq, beautiful flowers, awesome neighbours, parking for about 3 cars and extra blankets and towels. 10/10 from us!

It’s really nice time for us. Nice clean house well organised..we had a great time..

A wonderful place to stay and relax. Thank you for being dog friendly. We had an excellent stay.

Second stay here, heater was on when i arrived so house was beautifully warm. Lovely and peaceful and well set up so homely and comfortable.

Fantastic location - nice and private and very quiet. House is well set up, and has everything you need for a great weekend away. Really comfy beds.

We had a great stay at Alyssa's. The place was comfortable and we had everything we needed. Beds were comfortable and the house was nice and warm. It was also great to be able to have our fur baby with us.

Erin’s place was great for our short stay in Raglan. Despite the cold wet weather, it was very warm and cosy with the fire going. The house was clean, comfy and exactly as described. Communication with Erin was easy and helpful. Would happily stay here again.

Cute, warm and clean! Location close to cafes, mineral spa and beautiful walks

Great property, great host, and wonderful stay! The property is spacious, well appointed, very clean and fresh, and a retreat away from home! We really enjoyed our stay with 3 adults and 6 kids at the property. We had plenty of space, enjoyed the fireplace with the wood provided, and even the chickens. As we have chickens at home that just added to the appeal. This location worked really well for hitting the glowworms and Hobbiton!

Quirky fun layout. Very practical & roomy enough for 9 guests. The kids loved that the pool was available even though it was Easter weekend. Roszarri was very helpful and welcoming.

My partner and I had a wonderful weekend stay. The place was incredibly quiet and private, perfect for a relaxing getaway. We really appreciated the lovely personal touches that made our holiday feel extra special. Everything was clearly prepared with care. Check-in and check-out were seamless, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. We’d absolutely stay here again.

Atiamurphy is one of the best AirBNB places we have stayed at. Service provided, Host Communication and the Location, is perfect, for me at least. kids will have a blast, parents will get their peace, and travellers will scratch that itch whilst here! Thank you to Barry for your support throughout our stay

Rachael was an exceptional host. We were in town for a family bereavement which Rachael picked up on and had flowers waiting for us upon arrival with a touching note. The home was just fabulous to come back to and relax. I made an error in booking, getting the dates wrong. Rachael was so understanding and went the extra mile to refund a nights accommodation and followed up to make sure we found a place for the second night. The kind gestures from Rachael were so appreciated by our family.

Catherine's place exceeded all expectations. The space itself was incredibly roomy, making it perfect for relaxing, spending time with others, or just enjoying some quiet downtime. There were plenty of things to do, which kept everyone entertained throughout the stay—whether it was exploring the surroundings or enjoying the pool, reading books and playing the piano. What really stood out, though, was Catherine's hospitality. She went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, leaving a handwritten note and some thoughtful snacks for us to enjoy upon arrival. It's those personal touches that really make a difference and show how much she cares about her guests’ experience. Everything about the stay was smooth, comfortable, and enjoyable. I honestly can’t think of a single downside. I’d wholeheartedly recommend Catherine’s place to anyone looking for a relaxing and well-hosted getaway.

Wonderful stay in Tahawai, would absolutely stay again! The views were stunning and Yana was a great host.

Great place! Perfect layout and so great for a family stay with the pools, tennis court and chickens!

Peaceful and serene spot, beautiful view. Clean and tidy property, clear communication with easy to follow instructions. Description was very accurate. Would highly recommend and would book to stay here for future trips :)

What amazing hosts and a fantastic place to stay. One of my favourite places to stay within Airbnb. Pristine, spacious, light and bright. Such a cleverly designed space with everything you could have wanted, and a good continental breakfast with nespresso thrown in. Would absolutely love to stay again. thank you so much Roberta and Giacomo, all the best for your next adventure. Bless you heaps gabrielle & james ☺️

What a beautiful slice of country life! We could have stayed for much longer - lovely home surrounded by hills and farmland, loved being close to farm animals and having long walks at our doorstep going out 2.5 hours. A little perk we couldn't get enough of was the farm fresh milk waiting for us in the fridge - and lots of other little touches here and there that made us feel right at home! Would love to be back one day 😍

Lovely place to stay with fantastic views, thanks for having us!

simply fantastic . Three of us enjoyed the quiet and the view and the cleanliness. all outstanding. will visit again

Such a wonderful stay! The place was absolutely lovely—so warm, cozy, and the perfect little escape from the hustle and bustle of city. It was exactly what we needed to relax, unwind, and recharge. Every detail made us feel so welcome and cared for. We’re already looking forward to coming back again sometime soon. Warmest thanks once again for being such a gracious host! Cheers 💛

I came to waihi for work and needed a place to stay for a couple of days. Jonathan is very friendly and understanding about our needs and just able to communicate well with us. Internet connection is very fast because the Airbnb is using starlink. Small comfy place to stay at. Great to just unwind and relax. Thanks for allowing us to stay at the Airbnb Jonathan!

The hobbit hole was magic! Exactly what I needed. The more time you spent there the more you realised how much time and thought had been poured into it. Sheryn was so warm and friendly, going out of her way to pick me some fresh fruit! Would love to return at some point! Would highly recommend to anyone who needs some time out.
