Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Kawakawa

Spent nearly 2 months right here, don’t think we can find any better place around this area. Thank you Peter, for your great help and your hospitality, all the kids have great time at here.

very friendly host with lots of advice on sights to visit. accommodation was private, clean and peaceful. I would highly recommend staying here.

We absolutely loved our weekend. Beautiful house, stunning views, and everything you need for a comfortable stay. Shona is great and even gave us a late checkout which was a real treat. We will be back and would highly recommend!

We had an awesome stay and would recommend this airbnb to anyone especially if you are looking for a peaceful setting where you can see and hear the sea, which are close by. We were so relaxed and enjoyed the area, just a lovely place to stay and unwind.

Had an amazing trip in Kerikeri, Margaret's house smelt lovely walking in and everything was immaculate. Couldn't have been better!

This was our second time returning to this magnificent accomodation. Once again I emphasise how important it is for you to not think twice about booking this Airbnb. This place has the stand-out magic that makes any ordinary rentable house into a holiday home for making precious memories. Its simply awe-inspiring upon first entry. The positive attributes of this accomodation from its views, scenery, amenities and hosts are far too many to list. This home exceeds beyond expectation. Thank you once again.

Excellent communication and a comfortable stay, would stay again! 🙂

We had a lovely comfortable stay at the Fish'more cottage. Inger and Claes were very welcoming and friendly. The cottage is private, set away from the main house in amongst the orange trees. It has been very well planned out and beautifully renovated. One of the highlights was feeding the pigs.

We hit the jackpot with Michaela and Dans place, a great place to stay for a bit while visiting bay of islands. We loved our stay here. Good location. Amazing appartement and views and great communication all around. Would recommend!

Shelley & Graham were amazing hosts, incredibly welcoming and very knowledgeable of the local area. They made our stay in Paihia feel like home away from home, and the guest suite was more than we could have expected ! We will definitely be staying there next time we are in town !

Second time I’ve stayed at Hayley’s. Easy to access, peaceful, clean, tidy and has thoughtful touches that make the stay pleasant and comfortable.

Jenny is an Amazing Host ,very friendly very easy to engage with ,she made us feel like her house was ours, We arrived an hour before check in , but she allowed us in,the apartment was in spotless condition with excellent views and easy walk into town also had everything inside we needed ,we all felt very comfortable. I would highly recommend Jenny's apartment to anyone wanting somewhere to stay in Paihia for a Bay of Islands Escape.

Tapeka view is a wonderful spot. We had G&Ts on the patio overlooking the bay and watching the sky turn colour (not a full frontal sunset but the effect is equally as beautiful). The bed is really comfy and the bathroom and kitchen work well. The driveway is a little challenging at first, but completely doable if you follow Christine’s instructions. In fact it’s easier than other steep ones we’ve encountered because there IS room to turn around. Had a lovely three day stay here. Hope to come back again for a longer stay so we can do more walking and exploring.

Beautiful and cozy space with the most stunning view. Great location being walking distance to restaurants and the pier. Helen was lovely and greeted us when we arrived. Wished we could’ve enjoyed the space longer!

Second time I have stayed here. A nice relaxing place in the country. Perfect for a get away. Having a washing machine and dryer is always a bonus. Chocolates on arrival, a welcome treat. I found the bed perfect for my liking. Will be back again, as good location for day trips up to Bay of Islands and other surrounding areas.

Don and Stephanie's place is as beautiful as the hosts themselves. They are kind and very generous. We had a flat tyre at the morning of our checkout and they generous helped us with getting it fixed. The place is gorgeous with a small waterfall in the backyard which is just a cherry on the cake! We enjoyed every minute of our stay there and we can't thank them enough for their help. They even handed us a bag of limes during our departure! 10/10 recommend!

A lovely home with everything you need for a relaxing holiday. Come for the home stay for the view! A spectacular vista, from the Whiria Pa, across the harbour to the golden sand dunes. Also, a great selection of books to while away the hours 🙂 We had the generous bonus of using the down stairs spa as there were no guests. perfect!

Very friendly, very tidy well looked after property

The most serene beautiful location. Felt like a million miles from anywhere but best brekkie and coffee just steps from the door and a general store a couple of minutes away with everything you could need. Bed to die for, luxury linens and towels. Possibly the cleanest place EVER. thank you gavin, a perfect stay in a beautiful location.

For a winter break it really was perfect. Best spot ever. The best part....The people! Friendly, helpful. Kind. Every eatery was great. Op shop for fishing clothes too! Had great fishing with " Buckos" Dont miss it! Will return. Thankyou. BnM

It was a lovely relaxing spot to spend a week in a rural setting with sea views out to the Poor Knights islands. A large property, accessed off a private road so very secluded and peaceful. Handy location half way between Matapouri Bay and Tutukaka, although you do need a car to go anywhere. Kitchen was very well equipped including basic supplies. Access to an indoor swimming pool, ability to charge the EV, and use of the laundry was a bonus. The hosts were very welcoming on arrival and explained the facilities and beach access path. Special touches were a bottle of wine and locally made nut brittle on arrival, and acknowledgement of our wedding anniversary which was during our stay. Annette and Bianca were super helpful and responded promptly to any questions.

Fabulous hosts, lovely accommodation. We stayed for three nights, and all loved it including our puppy. If we didn't have to be back home for things, we would've extended our stay by a couple more nights. I'm sure we will be back again though. Thanks for the lovely stay

We had a very pleasant stay here in Paihia with stunning water views. It was peaceful to come home to after touring all day. Easy check-in and good communication from the host. Would stay again!
