Beachfront vacation rentals in Ruapuke, Raglan

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here, just wish it had been longer. Fantastic location, we could walk to town and the beach, and the cafe across the road was a bonus. The house was spacious and comfortable and had everything we needed. The ping pong table was enormously popular with the teenagers and grandparents alike. We wold love to stay here again some time.

Great spot for a relaxing holiday. Kind and friendly host - thank you!

Such an amazing weekend. Beautiful views, had everything and more. very family and pet orientated. felt very welcomed with the spoils when entering. even with rainy weather still had enough to do, to not get bored. clean tidy and great suggestion for any family

Stunning, peaceful and cozy easily describe this spot. Hosts are really nice and super responsive and home was pristine, surrounded by the beauty of nature. Thank you so much for sharing your home with us! (Take note that the road out to this gorgeous rural property is rough and slow going if you have a very full, low-to-the-ground car full of people/food/luggage.)

Heart Scent was an excellent casual accommodation facility and Sue and Donna were friendly and helpful hosts. I have no hesitation recommending Sue and Donna and their accommodation to potential Airbnb guests. If returning to Raglan, I would hope to stay at Heart Scent again

Lena was helpful and easy to communicate with! The home was a beautiful new build with a great view and cosy beds… also two bathrooms meant it was comfortable for our whole group. We enjoyed walking down the hill for coffee or in to town. Beautiful views!

The house was simply perfect in all respects. The location, amenities, facilities; the whole experience was seamless and an absolute pleasure for all. I would definitely stay again and I thank Rebecca for a lovely time. :-)

Incredible location with an oceanfront view of the surf at Whale and sunrise and sunsets. Just a few steps out the back gate to paddle out at either Whale or Indies surf spots. Large decks and beautiful landscaping. The wood stove was great to take the chill off at night. Would definitely stay here again.

Amazing location & had everything we needed. You cannot hire linen so need to bring it all and there's no rubbish or recycling collection so these points made the stay a bit less convenient but we had an awesome time nevertheless.

The accommodation is 11/10 with a 6 star rating for everything one needs for an escape. Modern, minimalist really private in a bustling area. We loved our stay and will return again. Thanks to Denise. Excellent comms and a few personal touches.

Perched on the edge of the coast, this stunning retreat offers uninterrupted sea views and a perfect blend of social and private spaces. Floor-to-ceiling windows flood the open-plan living area with natural light, creating an inviting space for connection and relaxation. A modern kitchen and spacious dining area lead to an expansive balcony—ideal for sunrise coffees or sunset toasts. For quieter moments, cozy reading nooks and serene bedrooms provide tranquil escapes. Step outside for nearby scenic trails for a breath of fresh coastal air. Whether seeking adventure or serenity, this breathtaking retreat is a must-visit.

We loved our stay and hope to return!

Fantastic location, beautiful place, super clean and tidy, with everything we needed for a short stay. Thanks so much for the recommendations on things to do in the area too 😊

Great location and views. The deck was very safe for kids and pictures are accurate

A well run, charming Airbnb with everything you need. It’s a stunning spot overlooking the harbour with beach access and only a 20min walk into town. Would recommend.

We had a large group and this spot was perfect! Lots of outside room, quick walk down to the water. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

The view was mesmerising, we could have looked out for hours. The photos only give a sense of this.

Beautiful spot! Perfect size for our small family for a peaceful few days by the beach. The house has a comfy, homey feel and Kim was super fast with communication.

Great place for an escape with family and friends

This house is incredible! We had a great stay. We were staying with another family and all have young kids. The two suites made it a bit of a challenge in that way, but if the kids were older or you were all adults, it would be perfect! We came there to surf, and as a surfing location it is epic! About a 10 minute drive to town for coffee and shops, but the location for the surf was worth it! We will definitely book again.
