Doubtless Bay : locations de vacances avec kayak

It is not 5 star accommodation but it did not say it was. It was clean and things worked. Great value for a group of friends travelling. 2 night stay sitting on the deck in the evening, the view of the falls and below was great. We ate at the manor a couple of minutes' walk away and enjoyed Karoke. Second night we made dinner. What was important to us? a) 8 of us can stay together b) keeping cost down c) clean. We will come back in again on the next trip in 2026.

Thank you so much Jodie, for hosting our employee for the duration of his project at the Pukenui Solar Farm. We are very happy with the service and communication provided throughout the stay. 5 Stars :)

Stunning location with a spectacular view. House was comfortable and coped very well with our group of 7, however the upstairs bedrooms need to be shared by a family as access to the bathroom was through the other bedroom. Road up to house very tricky and probably better attempted with a 4 wheel drive. We had a great week and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

Amy's place was even nicer than the pictures! Our family of 5 loved staying in this peaceful beach community surrounded by beautiful views everywhere we turned. Cherrie was great at welcoming us and even connected us with a local kiwi expert that took us out to see kiwis in the wild, a one of a kind experience we will never forget! Our kids loved playing out on the beach and our youngest loved the toys in the kids room downstairs. Would definitely come back and recommend to anyone!

We've had a lovely stay in this beautiful house, just 2-3 minutes minutes walk from Hihi beach. A place that becomes your home nicely furbished and decorated. How much the owner ask for it to sell? Cheers.

Kay's place was perfect for a couple of night's getaway. She was a very quick communicator and everything was as expected. She kindly left us freshly baked bread, as well as honey and apples from her property. The beds were very comfy and the whole place was well stocked and much more spacious than we expected. Kay's husband James sorted the pizza over for us and we cooked homemade pizzas. The property is private and secluded but just up a driveway from the road. Would highly recommend both the hosts and the property. Would happily stay again or suggest it to friends and family.

Blown away by location and beautifully presented home, complete with all the bells and whisltes. Loved that we had access to plenty of beach toys, games and books. Did not need a thing. Felt right at home after travelling 800kms. Perfect size for a big whanau who love the beach. The sunrises and sunsets are stunning.

Ben and Tereza went the extra mile in all aspects. Really appreciated all the small touches and the fact there was much more than what we were expecting. Definitely stands head and shoulders above other accommodation. Will try and get back and stay here again. Ali, Saskia and Jordie

View is stunning!! Loved our stay here, definitely recommend a walk up Tapeka Point Trail.

Olive Grove Cottage is one of the best airbnbs that we have stayed (trying hard to recall one that was better). The bathroom had loads of bench space for all our things, the bed was so comfortable, and the kitchen had everything that we needed (including a sharp knife - almost a first!). The two cabins (one for bed and ensuite, and the other the kitchen) were connected by a fabulous expansive patio, partly covered with a sail cloth (just right for a bit of shade from the sun). This patio was a great place to relax, have dinner, and enjoy the view - spectacular. Such a lovely private enclave. To top it off, the herb and vegetable garden were available for what we wanted. Lisa is a fabulous host, who made us feel welcome from our very first contact, with a very quick response time. I couldn't recommend Lisa's place more highly.

What a wonderfully perfect seaside retreat. Walking through the tropical garden towards the Cove Cottage, you catch a glimpse of the sea. Then turn the corner to a wonderful view of the cove and the sea beyond. The cottage is quite comfortable, great beds, comfy couches and a well equipped kitchen. The covered porch has a wonderful view where you can watch the tides come and go. At low tide you can walk quite a distance out to a rock ledge, at high tide there’s shallow water for a swim. Bruce lives next door, but you will still feel like you have the place to yourself. Visit nearby Mangonui for terrific fish and chips from Fresh & Tasty in the hotel. And do drive out to Matai Bay for a perfect swimming beach.

Hidden gem My partner and I had an AMAZING stay at the sea bach , first thing you notice is how homely it feels and how clean it is It has ALL the amenities we needed for our weekend getaway such as cooking essentials, bbq , air fryer , oven , stove , washing machine smart tv etc and ofc a coffee machine ♥️🫰🏾 She has set the house up perfectly even giving us additional treats and a pre stocked fridge which we really appreciated seeing as there aren’t many local shops near by Best part about it is knowing the beach is right by your door step with awesome kayaks to use x Us being auckland city folks it was really awesome to see the stars and constellations so clearly for the 1st time So glad we could bring our Fur baby tiva with us which is everything us dog parents could ever ask for WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO ANY TO STAY HERE x

River Cottage was such a gem! The surroundings were like a jungle, the grounds were beautiful and there was fun activities like board games and kayaks. We were even able to borrow a fishing pole and caught a fish! I enjoyed walking around the farm property and river area. My favorite part was access to a lookout tower off the deck. I made my latte each morning and climbed up there to enjoy it while watching and listening to all the birds. Book this place, it's magical!

Our time at the Shearer’s cottage was absolutely magical. My husband and I stayed with our three children for three nights. We were all utterly delighted when we walked in the door - lots of excited gasps from everyone - the surroundings are gorgeous, the property is thoughtfully appointed and spotlessly clean… far enough from the madding crowd to feel peaceful and secluded, yet still a very convenient drive to Kerikeri and the Bay of Islands. Ian and Anna were very friendly and communicative and made us feel totally welcome. Allow time to make the most of this beautiful place. The dawn chorus is glorious! Make sure you opt in for the spa by the river. We really hope we can visit again. Thank you so much Ian and Anna.

Linda’s place is beautifully organised and very clean. Lovely starry nights there. I didn’t explore the surrounds as I was too busy helping set up for my sons wedding, etc. next time I’m in Rangitane I’ll visit her studio 🩵

Olivia’s place was so beautiful and provided a peaceful retreat. Such a stunning view that’s a little different each day. Being at a dark sky reserve also gave us such a rich view of the night sky and the stars! Thank you Olivia, I’ll be back again for sure!!

What an amazing little cottage on the water to relax and enjoy New Zealand's beauty! Perfect little spot to catch up with nature and see so many species of birds all around. The cottage even had fresh picked flowers when we arrived to make it even more magical. We can not wait to return to the cottage on our next trip back to New Zealand. The host Anna was wonderful and very responsive our entire stay! She helped us out and checked in on us during our stay to see if we needed anything. Thank you so much Anna, you were amazing.

Enjoyed our stay

We had a great stay and found the cabin a very relaxing space. It was clean, tidy and the surrounding garden was peaceful. It was also in an excellent location near the beach.

Was a wonderful weekend, Nicole was so kind and welcoming!!
