Holiday rentals with beach access in Ngunguru

Amy and Clare were very welcoming and kind hosts, their place is idyllic and was a beautiful place to stay for a night. Thank you for the hospitality

Quintessential kiwi batch, located directly in front of beautiful Manapouri beach. Great place to re set the mind and body from busy city lifestyle. Will definitely re book when the chance  arises. Thanks Mark!

A wonderful place to stay, comfortable, clean and well equipped for a week long stay. A great base to be able to explore the bay of islands from. Walking distance to Opua and close to Paihia. Kerry was a great and friendly host. Particularly liked the information pack that contained local knowledge and had all relevant info about the house. The breakfast starter kit with homemade break was great too!

Great location close to hiking , Mt Manaia , and great swimming as there is no surf out front . Well equipped kitchen but the best was the quality bed . So many places here and in Canada have beds that should be recycled but not at Lil's .Thanks so much . Tom and Barbara

The Loft is a remarkable place! If you are thinking about staying here, don’t delay and book. The Loft delivered, and exceeded, all our expectations! It is immaculate, well equipped and has every amenity you could want for your stay. We used it as our base to explore the Bay of Islands and it was perfectly situated. Evenings spent enjoying the bay view from the balcony and eating yummy food at nearby dinning options. Anita Jane is a fantastic host. Super responsive, helpful and guided us well. One of our best AirBnb experiences!

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.

John’s place was absolutely fantastic—exactly what we were looking for! The location, right next to the ferry in Opua, couldn’t have been more convenient, giving us easy access to explore the area, whether by ferry, boat, or car. The boathouse is a truly unique experience, built right on the water, offering stunning views and a peaceful atmosphere throughout our stay. It was such a treat to wake up and hear the gentle sounds of the water just below us. The accommodation was spotless, with the kitchen and bathrooms immaculately clean, which made us feel right at home. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and every detail of the space was thoughtfully designed for comfort and relaxation. We appreciated how well-stocked and organized everything was, from the kitchen essentials to the fresh linens. John was an excellent host, always responsive and helpful, ensuring we had everything we needed. We can’t wait to come back!!

We had a beautiful stay at Pilgrim's Rest. So clean, comfy and beautiful homemade shortbread and muesli, yummy! Would highly recommend 👌

If you're looking for a little slice of Paradise a lazy 5 min walk to Ruakaka beach don't go past Donna's place. It's welcoming, has everything you need, great hot water shower (indoor & outdoor are both hot!) and the beds are super cozy with beautiful crisp linen. The perfect getaway for a couple or a crowd. Thanks Donna.

A very special place to stay, the architecture is incredible. A quiet, peaceful place to stay with walkway access to a small private beach. We will be back, thank you to the owners for sharing their home with others to enjoy. Felt like home. We could have stayed all year!

"We had the pleasure of staying at Jessica's house for the second time, and it was just as wonderful as our first visit! The property is clean, beautifully maintained, and perfectly equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay.

We almost don’t want to give away too much because we loved our stay so much and don’t want to see it booked out so we can make sure we can come back!!What absolutely sensational spot this is, right from the start when we walked into the lovely ambience of jazz music we were greeted with spectacular views all round the house. The space was so groovy and cosy and we felt right at home, Karl was fantastic in being responsive whenever we had any issues. We loved all the different places to sit and take in the views and each one was so comfortable!! We had gorgeous warm and private swims in the water by the house in the evenings and felt like we were in a tropical landscape when we sat down to dinner at the outdoor table watching the sunset. Karl left some beer and wine which we enjoyed in the spa at golden hour listening to what looked like a set up playlist with great songs on the usb connected to the stereo! Honestley could not have loved this place more, we will be back!!

Beautiful spot right on Oakura Bay. If you like swimming, playing in the waves and walking on the beach it is the perfect spot. Would be great for families!

We loved our 2 night stay the bay was magnificent! The beach house was like stepping back in time for a traditional beach nz getaway . Stunning views and we would love to visit again

We're had a fabulous time staying at this beautiful location. The perfect place to relax and unwind. Maxine was an awesome host and kept us well informed about the local water outage on one of the days, to ensure it didn't spoil our holiday. It didn't. It's been fun making memories as a family, at this home away from home.

Total paradise with stunning views, a private beach and welcoming hosts. The accommodation was very comfortable with everything we needed, and did I mention the views? We stayed five nights with 2 adults and 4 children and even when the weather turned rough it was always a relaxing place to be. The beach was stunning, great for swimming, paddle boarding, snorkelling etc. There is a fairly steep bank to navigate to get down to the beach which is no problem for most but something to be aware of if you have mobility constraints. Thank you Marina and Tony for being such great hosts, we hope to be back one day.

My mum lives in Ruakaka so Tony and Nora’s is a great spot for us to stay. Comfy bed, good shower, very private and great views. If you are couple we highly recommend this place.

A beautiful apartment right in the Opua Marina. The view of the boats was peaceful. The apartment is very spacious, beautifully decorated, and super-clean. We had everything we needed for our six-night stay. It’s a short drive to Pahia, and the car ferry makes getting to Russell easy. The hiking track from Opua to Pahia is fantastic. The Marina has a great cafe (live music on Sunday night), a well-stocked general store with pizza and ice cream, and a great take-away spot with fish and chips, burgers, etc. If you’re looking for crazy night life, this isn’t for you. But if you looking for a lovely apartment in a peaceful setting with fantastic views, book it!

It was a lovely relaxing spot to spend a week in a rural setting with sea views out to the Poor Knights islands. A large property, accessed off a private road so very secluded and peaceful. Handy location half way between Matapouri Bay and Tutukaka, although you do need a car to go anywhere. Kitchen was very well equipped including basic supplies. Access to an indoor swimming pool, ability to charge the EV, and use of the laundry was a bonus. The hosts were very welcoming on arrival and explained the facilities and beach access path. Special touches were a bottle of wine and locally made nut brittle on arrival, and acknowledgement of our wedding anniversary which was during our stay. Annette and Bianca were super helpful and responded promptly to any questions.

Imagine a place where every moment feels like a dream. Just steps away, the beach beckons with its crystal clear water. Downstairs, the spa offers a haven of relaxation, while upstairs, the tranquil surroundings and breathtaking harbour views create a perfect retreat. The weather? Absolutely stunning. The house? Imacculate in every detail. Linda, the host? She goes above & beyond, adding delightful touches like quality coffee pods paired with chocolates, a chilled bottle of bubbkes in the fridge, and#a thoughtful welcome breakfast pack. This is not just accommodation; it's#a first class experience that inspires & rejuvenates! It was hard to leave!

Vicki hosted me, my partner and our cat as I had business to attend to in Whangārei. The place was just as described in the listing with clear instructions and prompt communication which suited our needs. Vicki was also understanding of our travel arrangements and was able to accomodate our added request which I appreciated. I didn't get a chance to write in the visitor's book but I sure would've shared the same positive feedback. A highlight for me was seeing a kererū in the tree (which I don't get to see in Auckland). Our cat had a blast and was settled.
