Vacation rentals with lake access in Oceania

Absolutely stunning views, you walk outside the sliding doors that overlooked the pool and it is breathtaking. The house was in very clean condition. I was able to take my children to the stables that’s on the property to feed the horses, donkeys and dogs. The kangaroos came to the front of the property each morning. Honestly a 10/10. Hosts were very helpful too, were super responsive and helped me find a private chef that came out to the property. Thanks again

The Oyster House is absolutely amazing. The perfect place to rest and unwind with a spectacular view and peaceful surrounds. The kitchen was well stocked and the home very spacious and comfortable. We loved sitting in front of the fire and soaking up the ambiance. This was our first trip to Tasmania and we have enjoyed every minute. We will definitely be returning to the Oyster House. Thank you Nigel and Denise for sharing your special home 😊

Wonderful place - totally recommend staying there - and would definitely return

The accommodation was great! Extremely spacious, and definitely able to accommodate a big group of people. The views were spectacular! Sometimes the neighbours cats wonders by to say hello.

Our stay was amazing! The place was spotless and exactly like the photos! Francine our stay extremely comfortable. 5 stars through and through!

This was the first time we went to a Winter Holiday with the family. Elbert was ABSOLUTELY stunning from inside out. Kate has really hit the nail on the head with everything, from cleanliness, to design, to the homely feeling, all the way down to surprising us with little gifts, and snacks. I honestly don't think I will enjoy a Winter getaway without staying at Elbert, it really made our experience even more enjoyable. Will definately be back. Thank you so much Kate & Jeremy.

Absolutely stunning!!! From stepping into this beautiful space we were welcomed to peaceful music and a warm space to invite us in. We were in awe of the view and spent most of the afternoon sitting with a cuppa and looking out. The beds were very comfortable and warm and the shower was also excellent. Would definitely stay again and would highly recommend to anyone.

A lovely house to base yourself in Central Otago. Spotless and spacious and very toasty warm in the colder weather. Keiran was easy to communicate with and helpful operating instructions for the appliances were on hand. Plenty of room and although not required by us was good to see a cot and highchair for those with small families.

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!

Great central but quiet location and easy check in with door keypad.

From the moment we stepped in we felt welcome, comfortable and clean modern accommodation, with a few little sneaky snacks to welcome us. Thank you for a great stay.

We really enjoyed our stay at Sarah’s BnB. The place was very clean, nicely appointed, and comfortable throughout. Parking was easy, and the views of Melbourne were stunning. It’s a great location—very convenient to Southbank and central Melbourne, with plenty of restaurants nearby. Sarah was a very responsive and helpful host, making the whole experience smooth and enjoyable.

The best Airbnb stay we have had to date! Such a beautiful property right on the lake with water views. The property has access to the Queenstown trail that takes you directly to Queenstown and connects to many other beautiful trails that you can walk/bike. The property is exactly as described but the photos do not do it justice - we will definitely be back!

Perfect place to stay in Queenstown. Beautifully finished and decorated to a high standard. Well equipped. Did need to negotiate some stairs to enter and exit and the cleaners wandering in 45 mins early was a bit disconcerting. Nevertheless, high recommended and would certainly stay again.

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.

All I can say is WOW! The cottage was so cosy and the surrounding area was insanely picturesque. We were able to explore in between the rain and there were endless options - a walk to the lake, around the gazebo, to the animals, bike riding etc. There was also so much firewood available, which I feel is rare to have provided by accom! We will absolutely be back!!!

We had a wonderful, relaxing stay at the cottage. It was so cosy and everything had been thought of - comfortable bed, skylight for stargazing, outdoor bath and even slippers. We appreciated all the baby items that were set up and the toys and books. It’s in a great location and a short drive to so many great walks and scenic spots. Thank you Sean & Jana for creating such a special place.

We stayed at Caitlin & Michael’s cabin for our honeymoon and absolutely loved it. The space was comfortable and well laid out, with a cosy bedroom, large luxurious bathroom, and a kitchen and living area that felt like home. The wood fire was a real highlight and we appreciated the generous supply of firewood, kindling, and matches. Their local food recommendations were incredible—we followed every one and had no regrets. We also enjoyed cooking in the well-equipped kitchen and using the BBQ. The peaceful location was stunning, with no nearby noise and beautiful local wildlife all around. Whether it was sunny or rainy, the cabin was the perfect place to relax and unwind. We’re already planning to return. Thank you, Caitlin & Michael, for an unforgettable stay!

Howard was a wonderful host. The house was immaculate even came in to awesome music playing when we first arrived, the scenery was breathtaking and the overall experience was something you don’t get often in the city. My partner and I will definitely be back!

We had a fantastic stay at the Eco Lodge. Very peaceful surroundings and beautiful cabin! Our toddler loved the trampoline and chooks, especially seeing if there were fresh eggs in the morning:) The cabin was well maintained and super comfortable. We hope to be back soon!

My husband & I had such a wonderful stay at Patty’s place. The cottage was cosy & the surroundings were stunning. Patty & Roger were lovely people, they made us feel right at home. We loved walking the beautiful gardens. Thanks so much for a wonderful relaxing stay.

One of the most spectacular Airbnb's we have ever stayed at. The view is sensational and it is a lovely, peaceful setting. The Airbnb itself was modern, comfy and clean. It was well appointed with a full kitchen and well stocked supplies. Bedrooms were comfy and there were modern, clean bathrooms. Te Anau is a great place to stay as a base for trips to Milford or Doubtful Sound. Black's Hut is around a 30 minute walk to the town centre, slightly longer if you take the very scenic route along the lake edge. There are no busses or taxis. All and all it was a fantastic stay and comes highly recommended.

The Boathouse was a cosy and warm cottage filled with charm. Located by a peaceful river with resident ducks to wake up to and friendly neighbours. Jenna (the host) communicated well and answered any questions I had quickly. The property was just as described and check in was seamless. I had the most wonderful stay and will definitely plan to return again. Thank you for your hospitality Jenna.
