Beachfront vacation rentals in Whangaparāoa

An absolutely fabulous getaway right in the heart of the waterfront action of Auckland. Truly amazing views from the spacious and private deck, and a very comfortable living space.

Michael was the host that we worked with and he was wonderful!! He was very responsive, friendly and gave us great recommendations! We really enjoyed our stay!!

It truly is a beautiful spot, the view is stunning, the only thing between you and Australia is some bush, the beach and ocean. The privacy is practically absolute, it's serene with fantastic bush and birds visiting. On arriving the street is unique in that the numbers start high, going low, the carparks are great, but first time hard to see in the dark. The walk(steps) goes up about 30m ( 10 stories ), through beautiful bush and silver ferns. The house is very private, beautiful wood ( the outside is deceptive ), upstairs there are windows either side of the house with insect screens, that open cool upstairs nicely. It's relatively basic, but functional, you really pay for the view, privacy and some of the freshest air in NZ. If your happy with a decent walk up, a quaint house, the reward is a stunning location. To sit and watch the ocean, surfers and listen to the birdlife was magical.

House is really well designed and very comfortable with a lovely view

An amazing stay, albeit unfortunately cut a bit short. The information about the property was very detailed and spot on. Such a tranquil location and the house was so charming.

This was a fabulous place to stay with a young family. Proximate to the beach and playground. Easy one level house with great outdoor area including a trampoline and spa. Would recommend.

Great location on Piha beach with beach right across the road and flat so easy to park. We had 5 of us staying so this was great as there are two separate levels so one couple could sleep in bed upstairs and teenagers could sleep downstairs. Kitchen was well stocked and had all the basics. Great outdoor areas to relax in. Would def recommend!

Had a lovely stay at Kathy’s place. Beds were comfy, kitchen well stocked, and really enjoyed the view from the dining area. Kathy was very helpful and kind. Weather had us changing plans but hope to come back in the future!

The host was incredibly helpful throughout my stay, always available to answer any questions or provide recommendations for things to do in the area. The place itself was spacious, clean, and tidy - everything I could ask for in an Airbnb. The amenities were top-notch, and the decor was modern and stylish. I felt right at home as soon as I arrived. The location was also perfect - with nearby transport available, it was easy to explore the surrounding area. All in all, I would highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone looking for a comfortable, convenient, and enjoyable stay. It's definitely worth the price, and I would happily return in the future. Thank you to the host for a wonderful experience!

Ian was a great host, very helpful i would recommend this place to anyone. it was a peaceful relaxing place that's well located with an excellent bus service right on the door step. the weather was amazing, we will see you in 2027 if you will have us back? ..

Wonderful stay with wonderful host. Host was really friendly and provided great suggestions for Auckland touring. The location was quiet but close to fun restaurants. The unit was spotless and beautifully decorated. Comfy bed with nice linens. Everything you might need in kitchen, bath and closet. Lots of nice hangers in closet- my pet peeve. Like staying at a nice resort. Highly recommended.

Due to a mistake with Airbnb, I had to check out later than expected but Gali was more than welcoming and accommodating. A kind, friendly and interesting host. Great location to walk down to the beach, or just hang out on the balcony and take in the views. Gorgeous, can’t wait to come back.

We had a lovely stay at Bruce and Karen’s place. The property is only meters from the beach and in a very quiet area. Walking distance from Devonport (20min) but only minutes from local cafes and restaurants. Their place was clean and comfortable, with the main bedroom downstairs and the living area / extra bedroom upstairs, complete with a view of Rangitoto and the bay. Would definitely come back!

a perfect place to get away from it all!! Kim was very welcoming, friendly and helpful. An all round great place to stay. Thanks for everything

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Snell's Beach. The view was absolutely stunning! Elisa is very responsive to messages and was very helpful when I was unable to locate the access to property information on the app. Our stay a great way to unwind from the stressors of work. Thank you for having us.

Great place for big family group. It has everything you need and plus a fantastic view. Morris is such a good and responsible host. Thanks for hosting us.

Very peaceful, clean and just perfect for me and my husband. The updated style made for a pleasant stay. Parking was plentiful and easy to find. We will definitely be back.

Very enjoyable. Very close to Devonport for shopping and restaurants. Bobby was so very helpful and friendly. Highly recommend coming here especially with his help.

Beautiful house and stunning sea views. Dave was a very friendly and responsive host. As others have mentioned the listing photos don't do it justice. Highly recommended.

Great spacious 1 bedroom apartment located on the bottom floor of owners home. Down a right of way with easy parking for our car. A 200 metre walk on a track to the waterfront. I sent a message to Hayley that the cleaner omitted to leave toilet rolls or dishwashing detergent, Hayley was awesome, quick to respond, apologised and dropped them off. Comfortable Queen size bed with nice pillows. There were some good bits and pieces for cooking in the cupboard which was useful, oil, Tomato sauce, paper towels, gladwrap. Howick was a lovely area to stay with a selection of restaurants and nice shops

We had such a wonderful time at this gorgeous place, perfect for a group of friends with lots of bedrooms and bathrooms and spaces to relax in. The location is divine and you really feel like you are worlds away from the hustle and bustle. Thank you for having us.

Clean and comfortable. Spacious bathroom with washer and dryer which was a godsend. A small outdoor seating area was nice. Opposite the road from the beach. Devonport nearby is a lovely little town with great views and regular ferry's over to downtown Auckland. Easy regular bus service into town with bus stops close by. Parking close to entrance to it was easy to get our cases etc in and out.
