Vacation rentals in Waikato River

A beautiful place to stay, comfortable, Cheryl was a responsive host, leant us beach/ camp chairs for our visit. The photos don't do the house or surroundings justice, it's a wonderful place to stay. Great neighbourhood, the view of the bay changes all the time , with the tide and the weather, my favourite time of day was at the top of the tide when there was no wind and the bay was like a mirror. Lots to explore , beaches, waterfalls, swimming holes, thermal pools, mountains, gorges. We want to return in 2026, still so many places to explore.

We three people stayed here for one night. Easy to find and rather private accomodation. The place is part of their main house, but you have your own private access. Nice view into the mountains and the lake from your own balcony. The rooms are very tidy and clean with a very functional kitchen. We slept really well and enjoyed our stay. Thank you!

What a special place - We stayed here for just under a week and everyday we realise more how equipped it was. Urs has thought of every possible scenario, down to small things like kitchen ware, food for the fire, great seating areas and more. The outdoor bbq and kitchen area is superb, we cooked here most nights. The bedroom cabin is beautifully finished and very cosy. The views and land are stunning, we didn’t want to leave this relaxing setting.

Fantastic property in a great location. Great areas with 2 outdoor spaces and really great en-suite with master bedroom being away from the other 2 bedrooms. Really well setup kitchen and amenities. Would definitely recommend this property and we would stay again. Host responded very quickly and check in made easy.

We thoroughly enjoyed our three nights at De-vine cottage. It is a lovely, comfortable, well-appointed cottage. Sitting on the verandah at sunset looking at the lovely water view was a highlight. There is a lot to do in the area.

Brilliant location with a quick walk to the beach.Wonderful big house that catered well for our family over from the UK & Oz. The best airbnb we’ve stayed at so far in NZ 😀

The place was awesome with lots of indoor plants and outdoor gardens. Had some fresh apples and pears tasted straight out of the tree. It had beautiful hill top view of lake.

Graham and Jeanette were wonderful hosts! Their home made for a beautiful and relaxing stay, the place was comfortable and perfect for a weekend getaway.

True to description, great little courtyard for my little dog whom was very at home this place. Super close to everything, beach just over the road coffee shop on the corner, bayfair and the Mt close. Kitchen with everything you need to cook. Very grateful to have a warm easy place to stay with a little dog. Thankyou so so much.
