Fantastic property in a great location. Great areas with 2 outdoor spaces and really great en-suite with master bedroom being away from the other 2 bedrooms. Really well setup kitchen and amenities. Would definitely recommend this property and we would stay again. Host responded very quickly and check in made easy.

Lovely quirky kiwi bach! Great location. Easy (toddler friendly) walking distance to great coffee, beach and shops. Super family friendly. Clean and tidy.

True Bliss

FrancisRating, 5 stars5 days ago

The photos don't do it justice! the space is so warm, cozy, and clean and equipped with everything you could possibly need. The AC ensures that the space is a comfy temperature no matter the weather outside. Bonus features like excellent shower pressure and lush bedding that isn't shown in the photos was a pleasant surprise. Not too long of a drive to the main city either. Reasonably priced for how nice it was and we really enjoyed our stay.

Cosy 1 brm cottage on a quiet private rear section

GillRating, 5 stars1 week ago

Perfect - a delightful, spacious cottage in a beautiful garden. Everything you need and it was immaculate. A short walk into town and a short drive to gorgeous beaches. Gilbert and Sue couldn't have been better hosts and we'd 100% recommend here.

#Cheerful 3 Bedroom home near the beach

5 out of 5 average rating, 5 reviews19 months ago

After staying at Benny's we feel like we have come back from a beautiful remote island getaway. The outdoor area was so lush and it was so peaceful, we loved sitting outside and listening to the ocean waves in the distance. My partner and I struggled to be out at the check out time due to Aimz Games and the hectic traffic there was on top of school drop off being a 45 min drive turning into an almost 2 hour drive.. But Benny was super helpful, even going as far as helping me to carry my luggage for me! we highly recommend staying here if you need a quiet getaway by the sea. Absolutely loved it, wish we could have stated longer!!

Jessie's place is conveniently located between two busy spots for restaurants 🍣 🍔 and amenities in Papamoa Beach - an easy bike ride along traffic free paths, or via a stroll along the beach ⛱️ - also close to bus 🚌 routes to get you to Tauranga or Maunganui. The house has great facilities for keeping cool, a lovely deck with huge parasol and a brilliant heatpump inside. Jessie left us a lovely note on our arrival and the document explaining where to bike 🚲, surf 🌊 and enjoy the local area was brilliant! The yard was great for our Golden Retriever 🐶, fully fenced with good shade areas under the colossal olive 🫒 tree - with beach or path walks galore!

Executive Holiday Home in Prime Mount Location

4.8 out of 5 average rating, 74 reviews5 months ago

The house was perfect for our group of 5 adults and was in an amazing location. There was plenty of space for everyone to lounge and relax, and we loved how close it was to the beach and great cafes in town. There is a small Four Square supermarket about 10 mins walking distance which has plenty of supplies (including Mount Sourdough Co bread!) and a larger New World supermarket that was a short drive away. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you need to cook meals at home, and for coffee making had both a French press and a coffee pod machine and a milk steamer. The Mount Surf Co sells coffee pods from Flight Coffee and was our favorite place to restock the pods. We loved our stay and would definitely return :)

Sandbar Views Beachside Retreat - 100m from Beach

5 out of 5 average rating, 6 reviews1 month ago

Couldn’t have asked for a better place to spend our daughter’s first birthday. The place was perfect for our little family of four & our kids loved the friendly pets that visited every now & then. Loved that the town, shops & beach were all super close. The place itself was cosy & clean, we really felt like at home. Awesome hosts & an even better airbnb. 5 stars all round 🙂

Luxury Lake View Airbnb

5 out of 5 average rating, 31 reviews3 weeks ago

This was a very relaxed and luxurious four night stay, the Airbnb being exactly as described, spotlessly clean, tastefully decorated and ordered. The welcome selection of food and sweet treats is a thoughtful touch. Having plenty of washing up liquid, dishwasher tablets and laundry powder took the stress out of thinking about shopping on our road trip. Tony was very polite and quick to respond when we needed his help with something. It is a little haven.

4.83 out of 5 average rating, 18 reviews2 weeks ago

We had a great stay at Scott's place. Everything was clean and tidy and had everything we needed. Scott is a great host. He communicated well and responded quickly to messages. His place is quite central, making it easy to get around to nearby shops and restaurants. There is a Woolworths close by as well as a nice little fish and chips shop and dominoes pizza. Our dog loved and enjoyed the big fenced yard. Thank you for having us for such a long stay.

Retreat on Rita ~ Downtown Mount Maunganui

4.83 out of 5 average rating, 58 reviews1 week ago

We loved our stay here, especially being so close to the beach & having a hot outdoor shower. The garage was spacious & we had wonderful access to the Mount shops. Very comfortable bed, very sunny open plan living space & we loved the washing machine. It’s very quiet and peaceful, despite being so close to downtown. We’d love to stay here again!

Stunning location, right on the beach front with incredible views and the sound of the ocean on your doorstep. The views and location exceeded expectations. The house is nicely renovated and perfectly setup for a relaxing time away. We were extremely happy with the home and wish we could have stayed longer.

MargaretRating, 5 stars5 months ago

felt like home, very relaxing. We had 3 generations in our group and there was plenty of room for everyone. Close to Opotiki if we needed to go out, but the cupboards were well stocked when we needed to stay in. Loved our stay and would recommend it to others. Thank you
