Beachfront holiday rentals in Hot Water Beach

Had a very chill holiday even when it was raining. The host gave clear instructions about checking in. The place is pretty much complete already so we didnt get bored at all even when we just stayed home. The view’s stunning and very relaxing.

Absolutely perfect for us. Get escape away from people and just super relaxing watching the ocean views. The Bach is the typical kiwi bach very easy to feel at home. We will definitely stay again if we can.

David and Lynn are truly delightful! Their accommodations were the perfect place to stay in Tairua. With a warm welcome and a clean, well equipped guesthouse steps from the water we couldn’t have asked for more! We hope to return someday and will recommend their place to others. Thank you for blessing us with your kindness and little slice of New Zealand!

What a great find Kahukura is! 11 of us stayed for a recent wedding, and there was plenty of space for all of us. The house is quirky and full of character, and the outdoor spaces are divine. Tim was a great host: accommodating, helpful and responsive. We will definitely stay again, as we anticipate future holidays in Kuaotunu

Beautiful view of the beach! I walked to the beach every morning and evening. It was a nice getaway from the city life.

We were so lucky to find Steffi's beautiful batch available for our wedding anniversary as we booked quite late. The views from every room were incredible and the comfortable furnishings and sound of the waves was the perfect way to relax. It was an extra bonus to be able to take our dog with us who also seemed to find it relaxing. We only spent a couple of nights but would happily have stayed longer and hope to come back in the future. Thank you.

You want to stay here. The location is amazing and the house is well stocked and comfortable. If you’re looking for a charming beach house with a great location, this is it. You truly are right on the beach and the sunrise views can’t be beat. There is a great restaurant within walking distance as well. We did struggle with using the coffee maker (thank you Google) and using the oven and stovetop (main switch on far wall behind the coffee machine). Clearer instructions would have been great. Otherwise, remarkable home and we’d definitely stay here again.

Amazing waterfront location. Superb views. Nice modern place. Compact for four people but had everything you needed.

Closely drivable to town for anything you may need, but an amazing view from this side of town! Perfect little place. Well kept and everything you need inside. Would love to come stay again!

Location was fantastic, and the waterfront sunrise view was beautiful, and a great way to start your day! Enjoyed spending time on the porch. Self check in process was easy, and having a dedicated parking spot right at the stairwell was a huge convenience. Amenities were excellent & the space itself was clean and nicely decorated. We also appreciated Donna’s quick responses and willingness to accommodate our needs on short notice. Her hospitality truly made a difference in our experience.

The apartment is spacious and modern with stunning views over the marina. It is well equipped with everything you could need. We received clear instructions making it easy to find and access the property. We had a very enjoyable few days exploring the beautiful coastline around Whitianga.

Absolutely wicked stay! The place was beautifully stocked with actual household essentials—not just the bare minimum—which made it feel super homey and comfortable. The amenities were top-notch, and everything we needed was right there. Communication with the host was smooth and easy, and the location near Waihi Beach was perfect. Overall, a fantastic experience—would definitely stay again!

This is a great location on the canal front with a view straight down the waterway facing north.The property has its own water access boat/jet ski launching ramp and pontoon which is really convenient. The pool ,spa and deck areas get plenty of sun and great views. The house was very tidy and larger than expected with plenty of areas for privacy if anyone needed that. The kitchen is equipped with all thats expected in a home to cook for a family group and theres a second fridge and kitchenette to use which is helpful. We would come back again for sure.

Nice room in the lodge. Dishes, silverware and cooking utensils are available for lodge guests. The pool is clean and warm, the kids loved it. 😄 The proximity to the beach is wonderful. The space itself is clean and tidy. Clear recommendation from me!

Nice view and fun glamping pod experience. Slightly close to the next pods but overall would recommend!

Jenny's home was stunning. From the view, to the amenities, to the peaceful location, everything was spot on and spectacular. This is the type of place that people dream about staying in, made reality. Jenny was communicative and proactive in providing instructions and making sure our check-in went smoothly. The local recommendations and equipment provided was key to ensuring we had a good experience not only on the property, but in the surrounding area as well. I would stay there forever if I could, but most definitely would stay there again.

We greatly enjoyed our stay at Taid cottage. Judith’s suggestions for activities in the area were spot on. The views from the house are glorious, and we also enjoyed sunset views from the tiny park across the street. Highly recommend this property for a beautiful and restful stay.

Lovely modern home on river by beach. Beautiful, quiet. Enjoyed kayaking from house to house wish we stayed longer!

We would highly recommend Robyn’s place. It is very clean and comfortable and thoughtfully set up with everything we needed, convenient parking and wonderful beach access. We were also very appreciative of Robyn’s flexibility with our booking & responsive communication.

Excellent location, right on the beach and only a short walk to the shops. Wendy is a great host, communicating as soon as the booking was confirmed with essential information.

Wow wow wow! What a place! Michelle was incredibly kind and helpful, her place is immaculately clean and beautifully designed. It’s modern, lush, with plenty of light and everything you need. The place feels new and comfortable. There is a quiet river right in the palm tree garden, with kayaks you can use to explore it. Native birds and trees surround the space. The river access is also a minute away from the beach. You can borrow bikes or surfboards, or shovels to dig out the hot springs hidden under the sands! Even though it rained while we were there, it was a highlight for us. Thank you Michelle and James!

Lynne's place was very tranquil and a pretty special slice of the country, it was very private and you had access to your own private bay. The views were incredible. A bit of a hike too drive too - be prepared for the windy roads but absolutely worth it! Would recommend to a friend and would stay again and relax with a book looking out to the bay.

Rob was a great host, super quick responses and opened the house to us earlier when their was no guests before us. House is very spacious and homey. Kid friendly and the beach right across the road. We will always look for robs place first when we come back to Waihi beach!

We loved our stay here. The place was very clean, and our host checked in daily to see if there was anything we needed. It was just a couple minutes walk from the beach, which was beautiful and often there was was only one or two people walking so it felt like our own private beach.
