Vacation rentals with a fire pit in Waiheke Island

We felt right at home at Katie’s house. It’s super stylish, our daughter loved the various things she could do, location is perfect and Katie is an amazing host. Would highly recommend and we’d love to stay again - didn’t want to leave!

Relaxing and beautiful stay in this lovely home

Thanks Erika and Stuart for opening up your home to us. We had a lovely week in Auckland, the location was perfect and having access to spa pool kept the kids entertained while chilling at home! The parks on either side of the house gave it a bit more privacy and an extra entertaining ground for our kids. The location was great to view sky tower fireworks during NYE.

Great location, walkable to beach and restaurants. Nice living space opens out to covered deck and garden, would be very nice once pool renovation is complete. House is mostly cool with summer weather, note there is no central air conditioning. We did not need it during our stay. Minor improvements could be kitchen utensils update ie knives that are sharp, lids for pots etc, consider rubbish bins in bathrooms and shampoo/conditioners. Tissues in house. Hairdryer was missing however when informed, one was delivered to house within the hour. Very responsive hosts. Would stay with them again.

Nick and Katherine's beautiful house was the perfect home base for our family's first visit to New Zealand. Honestly, everything about it exceeded our expectations. Each of our weary travelers had a lovely, quiet space they could escape to when they needed down time. The kitchen and bathrooms were pristine. The beds and linens were super comfortable, and the home's artwork added to our experience. It was lovely to be greeted by so much sunlight every morning, and we enjoyed open access to an outdoor patio. It was perfect for our morning coffee and a glass of wine in the evening. And the 5 minute walk to great restaurants and the beach was just as advertised. Also, the hosts' instructions were clear, and they were responsive but not intrusive. This was a very special trip for our family, as we hadn't traveled together for 6 years. But we rate this location "10 out of 10", and we would absolutely stay there again if we ever make it back to Auckland. THANK YOU!!

We had a really great experience! Place was beautiful, spotless and we felt right at home. If we ever find ourselves back we will definitely stay there again!

Malcolm was incredibly easy to deal with and very accommodating. Gave us very clear instructions. The house was presented incredibly well. Overall an amazing experience and would definitely stay here again

Great house, amazing view, love the area. Good communication from host.

The perfect base for a few days exploring the Āwhitu Penninsula. Spotlessly clean and great communication. The view is spectacular- next time I want to try the spa!

Very private and comfortable, the spa was a lovely bonus. Hosts were very responsive and the stay was enjoyable and easy. 10/10 would recommend.

The room had everything we needed to be comfortable. The view from the living space was stunning. Agata was friendly and helpful.

Perfect overnight girls getaway. Was well appointed and exactly as expected. Great spot to chill out and base yourself from. Awesome communication and location easy to find and good location to get good food and coffee.

If we could give Vanessa's place a 6 stars instead of 5 stars, we would. Having renting many airbnbs recent as we holiday in Australia and New Zealand, I would consider Vanessa a top superhost. We stayed for a month. She was responsive and very accommodating. The house is beautifully designed architecturally, and has been furnished with taste and love. The sun streaming in from about 10 am til afternoon made place lovely and warm. The view from the dining area out to the garden made us feel at peace. We were able to pick various herbs and lemons from the garden for our cooking! The kitchen felt like a chef's kitchen and had everything one could think of or need. This is certainly our top Airbnb todate, we would love to come back again !Thanks again Vanessa for letting us stay in our beautiful home.

Peter’s AirBNB is gorgeous and well stocked. He was friendly, responsive, and on premise much of our stay (which is a private section of his home), but also great about giving us privacy. We especially enjoyed the pool and charming garden spaces - as well as the breakfast food and tea/coffee provided. A few notes that weren’t fully clear to me before arriving: >Washer is on site but generally not for guest use (though we got the OK to do a couple loads when we asked) > There is no living room or indoor common area of the Airbnb space. > There are gorgeous outdoor spaces with shade covering to enjoy for meals at home - but only bedroom/hallway space available indoors for “hang out space” > The Rotary walk area is easily accessible from this space - and the views are even better than the pictures :)

Gorgeous place to stay. Everything was immaculately clean & well presented. Loved the extra touches of a welcome basket of nibbles & breakfast cereals,plus getting greeted with the most amazing cup of hot citrus tea.

Libby is a great host and provided the support I needed. I enjoyed the time (2 weeks) stay with her. :) The accommodation is like the description on the page. I am driving by myself and it’s easy to park nearby. It match my expectations and fits everything I need while I was working from Auckland.

We had a truly inspiring experience. I was perfectly lovely in every way.

Beautiful surroundings, great accommodation and very friendly host. They provided some nice little extras, heated towels and farm fresh eggs for breakfast (available when the chickens cooperate).

It was a real pleasure to stay at the Eco Sanctuary. It was a little corner of paradise, with a comfortable cabin and great shared facilities. Perfect for a couple's getaway. The garden and its array of plants is exceptional. Diane made us feel very welcome - thank you!

An amazing setting, very rural, yet not too far from the city! We have thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, from meeting the farm animals to playing guitar by the fire. Sandra was very responsive and friendly and we thank her for her hospitality! Would not hesitate to recommend to anyone else! Just one thing to note for the host: enerator is too weak to run the electric kettle (1800w, while the kettle was rated at 2200w) - we couldn't find the non electric one unfortunately

A Magical retreat! The bathtub under the stars was pure bliss & the fire pit outside was the perfect spot to cozy up and enjoy the night 🔥. And the bed? Cloud-like comfort 😴. A truly unforgettable stay. Highly recommend!"

Bia and Brett provided us with a lovely stay. Proactive communication. It had everything we needed. Great price. Enjoyed a little sunset walk visiting the farm animals.

We found a place our entire family enjoyed, we loved all the activities, the set up and the peacefulness. We plan to be back!

Vivian was so lovely, we had such a perfect stay. The location was so peaceful and secluded. Definitely a must
