Vakantiewoningen aan het strand in Queen Charlotte Sound / Tōtaranui

Was easy to book, great specific check in details. David had it all ready to walk straight in even though I only booked 20mins beforehand. Super friendly, and loved that it was dog friendly.

We had a beautifully relaxing and energising couple of days at Tira Ora. The hosts were super lovely, the place was full of rustic charm, animals and birds everywhere. The rooms were comfortable, home-cooked food was delicious, and the place so captivating, we were sorry to have to leave. Great for families, a real natural treat away from it all.

We had a wonderful family Christmas holiday by the sea. The location is amazing being on Queen Charlotte Sound with beautiful views across Waikawa and the sea. We went fishing from the jetty and very much appreciated the use of the paddle boards and kayak and hot tub. Its one of those places where you don't feel you need to 'go anywhere' but to just stay and relax which I guess is what holidays are for. It was hard to leave this holiday home

Our family of four had a great time at Tui Cottage. It had everything we needed and was very comfortable and warm. The view and beach access is amazing. We appreciated being able to use the kayaks. Throughly recommend.

Loved Ruth's place and really found an appreciation for the art. Awesome location nice and central to town and bars and restaurants close by with beautiful views and all the homely things you could need. Place was also really cosy and homely

We had a lovely stay at Ben’s summer Bach. Waking up each morning to a view of the bay can’t be beat. The location is close enough to access Picton and Blenheim for restaurants and cafes etc while still feeling secluded and tranquil. Each access to trails and a wonderful place to kayak around. The fenced yard was perfect for my pups as well.

Incredible little unit with everything you’d need for a night or a month away, and a friendly host

We have had the most amazing stay! The apartment is even better than it looks in the photos! View to die for from the enormous balcony, super comfortable beds, high end appliances & friendly accommodating hosts… we don’t want to leave!

This is the place when you want to hide from everithing in a unique setting. Look at the sea while having breakfast, linger on the veranda and enjoy nature, go for a kayak trip, just tuck in... Just the place to be yourself.

lovely apartment. everything you need. easy walk to the beach. local shops nearby and an easy drive into city (or bus right out front).

Felt like home& wanted to stay forever. Thanks

Fantastic views. Cosy spacious house.

Difficult to cover in a few words what a great find this was. We stayed for 3 weeks and felt at home straight away. It had everything we needed for a peaceful holiday, visiting family locally but also having our own space. We felt immediately and warmly welcome, but not intruded upon; the facilities were simple but superb, the bed was comfortable and the views were amazing - we could never tire of them.

Fantastic apartment to stay in, spacious & beautifully clean with very comfortable beds. The showers were amazing- great water pressure! The pantry was well-stocked with essentials, including milk left in the fridge for us. Puzzles, books and games provided were also fun and appreciated. We especially enjoyed just walking across the road to the beach without having to use the car. Great cafes and restaurants nearby too. A wonderful home away from home. Would thoroughly recommend- (my only reservation being that a private skateboard ramp is under construction directly in front of this property, so I imagine the noise of that in use will considerably disturb the peace of staying there in the future. )

Stunning place, surrounded by beautiful nature. Karen has done an excellent work on the place to make you feel comfortable and welcome with subtle details.

This Airbnb exceeded our expectations. There was lots of room for the group of us. It had all the appliances and utensils needed in their kitchen. The hosts were great communicators and provided us with all the information we needed to get to the bnb and how to explore the surrounding areas.

Thanks Lou for being so responsive and accommodating. It really was appreciated.
