The Blue Breeze @ Gems Escape
Great place and host,will come back if visiting tutukaka again.

Rumbling Tides Studio
Absolutely loved staying at Sheenah's, the perfect spot for a solo dive weekend. This was a safe, cosy and gorgeous studio and I can't wait to come back.

Beachfront Apartment, Mangawhai Heads
Well I must say in our opinion, this is the best spot in Mangawhai Heads, beautiful views from the unit of the beach in front. The unit is awesome, with everything you need. We stayed as a couple, but the unit has room for a family. Easy access to beach and short walk to surf beach and walking trails. Paul was excellent to deal with, great communication and direction Thanks again

Stunning water views - garden surrounds
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.

Flat 1/Cedar Stone Lodge Matapouri waterfront
What a fantastic place. The setting is spectacular and the location is unbeatable. A real touch of kiwiana.

Your new Mangawhai holiday home
We loved our stay at Richard’s place! Great cooking and hanging out space - not too small at all with a separate bedroom. Will definitely be coming back

One Tree Point Waterfront Studio Apartment
Mark & Leone were great hosts --- very responsive, accommodating and helpful. Check-in process was simple and with clear instructions. The studio apartment was clean, comfortable, quiet and private, with amazing views and an almost private beach on the doorstep ----- a simple and wonderful place to relax!

Bellmain House Accommodation
The apartment was beautifully appointed. Very clean and comfortable. Beds were really comfortable and appreciated the duvet was the right temperature for the season. I can overheat! Marion and Graham were lovely, welcoming, friendly hosts. We enjoyed talking with them and would definitely go back again. Thoroughly recommend!

Coastal Retreat
What an amazing place. Words cannot really explain - a visit would be the only way to do it justice!

McLeod Bay Executive Homestay
We had a wonderful weekend and created some truly beautiful memories in this stunning home. The fireplace was a lovely touch, especially during the chilly mornings and evenings. The kitchen was modern, stylish and very practical, with a massive island bench that worked perfectly for our group. It made cooking and sharing meals together so easy and enjoyable. The hosts were readily available through the Airbnb app whenever we had questions, and they graciously allowed us a slightly later check-out as we were having such a beautiful weekend. The instructions for using the house facilities and checking out were clear and really helpful. The spa pool was amazing and added an extra layer of relaxation to an already perfect weekend. I will definitely be coming back again. Thank you for such a memorable stay.

Seaside Serenity in Parua Bay
Anne was incredibly responsive on messages. Made us feel welcome and we had a lovely stay at her Airbnb. The location is incredible, right by the sea. The kayaks and paddle board were a great addition. We were very lucky to have even seen some dolphins while kayaking. Wish we could have stayed longer !

Harbour View Oasis
Perfect place, easy relaxing atmosphere

The Batch
Beautiful kiwi style bach. Nicky was a great host and the accomodation was the perfect location to explore the whangarei heads which are stunning. I will definitely being staying again

Knights in Residence - Ocean Front Retreat
Stunning week away over Easter. We arrived a few hours after a cyclone, which meant no power and water. Anneke was great with all communication about the situation. We chose to stay hoping the power would be back on soon. The next day it was. Meanwhile, Anneke bought us wine and coffee and then arranged a generator so we could shower and charge phones etc. Then we had six glorious days of sunshine with the odd shower. We love walking, so explored all the local walks in the booklets and info guide. Every afternoon we relaxed on the deck just watching the ocean and boats. We ended our days with an outdoor bath, which was Devine. Anneke was a wonderful host. A true legend. The Bach was beautiful, clean, new and private. Highly recommend.

Silver Tide - Stunning Home, Panoramic Ocean Views
Absolutely beautiful ocean views! Had the most relaxing time away with friend and we came back refreshed! Waking up to the stunning sun rises and sound of the ocean did wonders. Plenty of swimming spots close to the house, and the house was clean, spacious and well stocked with all the kitchen essentials plus more! Would recommend staying here to anyone looking for a spacious, modern house get away that’s private and close to beaches.

Bream Head Holiday House
Claire was an amazing host from start to finish! We were a group of 12 and found that the place was the perfect size for us, with more than enough facilities and amenities available. Despite being in a rural location, the house was extremely well-kept and tidy. Claire was also extremely quick to respond to our questions during the stay. Would definitely come back again!
