Holiday rentals with beach access in Waipu

My weeks long stay with Lynne was absolutely perfect and exactly what I needed. The views were beyond stunning and so peaceful I rarely left the apartment. The bedroom and bath with the ocean views were incredible and so tranquil. Lynne took fantastic care of me throughout the week and she and her sweet pup Lexi were a total delight. I didn’t want to leave.

Beautiful apartment in a private location with spectacular views. Very clean and spacious, with comfy beds, and the kitchen was particularly well-stocked. Easy walk down to the beach. Excellent communication by Maree throughout.

This airbnb was incredible. It was peaceful & quiet, in a beautiful area, right on the water. The room was immaculately clean & I felt so comfortable being there. The amenities were exceptional, washing machine available which was so handy. I wish we had stayed longer. The neighbours (?) cat sensed we were cat people and got it’s fair share of pats. Highly recommend staying here at Raewyn & Theo’s.

Awesome place. Paul was great. Very clean place. Had everything we needed. Beautiful swim area and views. Would love to stay for months.

Great location close to hiking , Mt Manaia , and great swimming as there is no surf out front . Well equipped kitchen but the best was the quality bed . So many places here and in Canada have beds that should be recycled but not at Lil's .Thanks so much . Tom and Barbara

Leanne was a wonderful host; excellent with communication and very helpful. The accomodation has a stunning view and is beautifully kept - comfortable, clean and just right for our stay (a two-nighter). The location was excellent; close to the city which has wonderful restaurants - of note The Quay. Highly recommended.

A nice and modest studio apartment with a fantastic view and a great bed. Just a few steps to the beach. The beach is a tidal beach (so no waves), the water is clear. There were no other people there, so peaceful and quiet. Don’t expect too much luxury, but the price is according and great value. Very friendly hosts that helped us out (thanks for the nespresso machine!).

We had a beautiful stay at Pilgrim's Rest. So clean, comfy and beautiful homemade shortbread and muesli, yummy! Would highly recommend 👌

Lisa was so lovely, and we loved staying at her place. It was even better than the photos! An amazing kitchen for cooking, a pool, a spa, and spacious comfortable areas throughout made for the perfect getaway. Lisa was super friendly and helpful throughout, we would absolutely stay here again.

House was close to everything and Julie was extremely helpful. Would definately book again.

Gorge little seaside home with oodles of character and stunning views across to the beach. Perfect place to unwind, read a book and listen to the sound of the waves. A short walk for a dip in the estuary and cafes and shops. Amanda was super responsive and a great host! We will definitely be back.

"We had the pleasure of staying at Jessica's house for the second time, and it was just as wonderful as our first visit! The property is clean, beautifully maintained, and perfectly equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay.

Great Airbnb! Amazing location. Strongly recommend.

Amazing host, great communication and super clean and tidy house.

I have stayed in a lot of places but Anneke’s place is very special. If I could give it 10 stars I would. The view and layout of the unit is just about the best I have ever experienced with an Air bnb. The bed was comfortable, the unit was immaculate and waking up to that view was wonderful. We stayed for a week and we could have stayed much longer. We thank her for her kindness and hospitality.

beautiful spot. close to shops and Beach. we tried to cook as much as possible and the house had everything we needed to do that.

My mum lives in Ruakaka so Tony and Nora’s is a great spot for us to stay. Comfy bed, good shower, very private and great views. If you are couple we highly recommend this place.

This was all we had hoped for and more. Everything about it was just right, everything we needed was there. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was well-equipped. Our resident neighbour at No.2 was most helpful and altogether we were delighted and grateful to be able to stay the extra days there that were needed when one of our party was unwell. Thank you so much!

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.

Imagine a place where every moment feels like a dream. Just steps away, the beach beckons with its crystal clear water. Downstairs, the spa offers a haven of relaxation, while upstairs, the tranquil surroundings and breathtaking harbour views create a perfect retreat. The weather? Absolutely stunning. The house? Imacculate in every detail. Linda, the host? She goes above & beyond, adding delightful touches like quality coffee pods paired with chocolates, a chilled bottle of bubbkes in the fridge, and#a thoughtful welcome breakfast pack. This is not just accommodation; it's#a first class experience that inspires & rejuvenates! It was hard to leave!

Vicki hosted me, my partner and our cat as I had business to attend to in Whangārei. The place was just as described in the listing with clear instructions and prompt communication which suited our needs. Vicki was also understanding of our travel arrangements and was able to accomodate our added request which I appreciated. I didn't get a chance to write in the visitor's book but I sure would've shared the same positive feedback. A highlight for me was seeing a kererū in the tree (which I don't get to see in Auckland). Our cat had a blast and was settled.
