Excellent Bach so nice and new! Lovely stay excellent hosts

A wonderful little home with everything you need to relax and chill out. Very well maintained, and lots of little things around the place showed that Greg and his family put a lot of effort into making sure their guests feel comfortable and looked after.

Lovely stay at the backyard beach bach. Greg was a great host and happily recommend this to anyone looking to stay in Waikanae.

We enjoyed our stay at the Backyard bach. The Bach is part of the house but yet separated from the main house offering privacy. The place is 5 minutes walk from the beach. Greg was a great host and we recommend this to anyone looking for a quiet getaway from Wellington.

We had a lovely stay at the Backyard Beach Bach. The Bach had everything we needed and was private and very comfortable. Greg and his family were wonderful hosts and made us feel very welcome, going above and beyond. Walking distance to the beach and some great cafes as well. We will definitely be back!

The Shaw family gave a wonderfully warm and friendly welcome, and the bach felt suitably beachy yet super clean, and uncluttered with good bed and sofa. Loved the view of trees through the windows. And proximity to the beach. A great place to clear the head.

Very friendly and welcoming hosts! The room is very tidy, we had a pleasant stay.

Awesome location- quiet and close to the beach. Friendly and helpful hosts.

Our hosts made us more than welcome. There was another guest there, as well, and he was lovely to visit with. These folks need to be careful, as we wanted to move in with them and be their bbfs. The house, setting and room were super!

Quiet and spacy location, highly recommended. Linda and Doug are nice people who made us feel at home. Perfect stay.

A delightful place to stay, with hosts that are helpfulness personified. We would have loved to stay again on our way home but was booked already. Certainly a lovely private quiet space.

Linda and Doug made us most welcome on our arrival. They made sure we had everything we needed during our stay. The location was great for us and is close to amenities, shops and the beach - perfect. We made a last minute booking change and they were very flexible in accommodating this.

Linda & Doug went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable. They were very tolerant of my 4 year old son. They're a lovely couple to chat to and the accommodation was clean and well kept. We had the upstairs to ourselves with lots of room to spread out. We couldn't have asked for better hosts.

Lovely home close to Paraparaumu shops etc. Also ideal for a stopover prior to travelling to Wellington. Doug and Linda great hosts.

Thanks for sharing your home and your recommendations for sightseeing in Wellington. I hope we can meet again when we return to NZ in the future

Our family of three (mum, dad and two-year-old daughter) had a really lovely two-night stay with Linda and Doug. Their home and guest spaces are exactly as described - comfortable, clean and very quiet - and their garden is simply stunning. Linda and Doug made us feel welcome from our very first e-mail communication and we really enjoyed chatting to them throughout our stay, sharing stories of family life and traveling experiences. We particularly appreciated the little things they did for us during our stay - toys left out for our daughter to play with, lending us a back-pack for a day-trip on the train into Wellington and lending us a high-chair at meal times. Thanks guys for making our first airbnb guest experience a fantastic one. We sincerely hope to see you up in Taupo some time in the near future and absolutely recommend your home to anyone wanting to stay in the area.

Absolutely delightful, everything as advertised. A really nice atmosphere and would definetly return

Had a great stay, thank you!

Heather and Duncan weren't available immediately on our arrival as they had their whole family over - but their daughter made sure to meet us as we drove in and she showed us around. Heather turned up not long after with milk, spreads, bread, fruit and yoghurt. That, coupled with the tea, coffee, cereal and kitchenette already available meant that we were very well set up for our stay. It was nice to have such a private space for the three of us, but Heather also made sure we were welcome into the rest of her house if we needed anything else. The Oasis also came with a lake, a couple of gardens and nearby fields to explore which all looked beautiful. Between the amazing view and the heated floor, what more could you ask for?

We thoroughly enjoyed our short stay at Heather and Duncan's Oasis Bed and Breakfast. Heather provided very accurate directions for us and both were on hand to warmly welcome us to the lovely guest accommodation in delightful surroundings. The accommodation was very comfortable and spotlessly clean with a good bed. It was nice to have breakfast ingredients provided and a flexible check-out time. We would highly recommend Heather and Duncan's Oasis Bed and breakfast to those who are seeking quiet, self-contained, comfortable accommodation in a delightful setting and only a short drive to all the amenities of Paraparaumu Beach and environs. Thank you for providing us with a most enjoyable stay with you.

Heather and Ducan are the most friendliest people. We drove up from Christchurch that night very late. The house was a bit tricky to find but good old Ducan waited outside the drive way for us in the middle of the night so that we wouldn't get lost. We did not catch him as he was outside for hours and he had just ran in when we rocked up. Even though we did not catch each other we appreciated it so much Their home is truly an oasis in the middle of know where. You wake up to blue skies, green grass, flowers and butterflies flying around. We regret only spending one night here. The little lane way house is separate from the main house. You get your own little miniature house that you can sit and hang out till as late as your heart desires without worrying that you'll bother or wake your host. The inside looked like a cabin with beautiful wood ceilings. We felt like we were in a mini cabin hotel. I could not fault this place as it was the best most memorable placed I've ever stayed at with air bnb. And my partner and I have done a handful of them from Japan to Australia to New Zealand. Thank you for everything heather and Ducan!!

Definitely the gorgeous gardens and pond were a stand out. Felt like we were sleeping in a magic tower in olden times (with mod cons)! Duncan and Heather were so very welcoming and generous of spirit the next morning to share Duncan's art journey with us. His outstanding figure paintings each tell a story that keeps you entranced. And his ceramics have fabulous exciting forms. A true artist's inspiration! We felt so honored to see his outstanding work!

What a beautiful spot, we had a lovely stay. The apartment was well equipped and very comfortable, conducive to a relaxing time. The outdoor area is beautiful and also relaxing. Heather and Duncan are very hospitable and welcoming. We will definitely be back.

Oasis BnB was just that. A beautiful Oasis in the Kapiti Coast. Heather and Duncan were the most hospitable hosts letting us use their bbq and laundry as we were there for over a week. They are some of the most kind people we've ever met. Make sure to check out some of Duncan's paintings, he's very talented. Heather had a ton of information about the coast and tourist stops ready for our arrival. The apartment is just as described and had everything we needed. There were even a few farm animals next door. We came home a few times to cows at our door, which was pretty cute :) We would highly recommend staying with Heather and Duncan. We definitely hope to do it again if we find ourselves in the area.

Jenna-Lea's flat was perfect for someone who likes nice furnishings and history. Beautifully and thoughtfully decorated. Highly recommend staying here if you are near by.

Friendly hosts, lovely quiet location, beautiful décor in the room...very comfortable bed and luxurious bathroom. Close to shops and 40 min scenic drive to Wellington central and the Hutt very close to motorway access. I stayed her for 4 nights on a business trip and was very comfortable, when the hosts saw I needed something they provided it immediately.

We really enjoyed our stay at Jenna-Lea's! Private, comfortable, lovely theme, fab shower, and really comfortable bed! Cooked breakfast on our last morning was super delicious! Would recommend to other guests.

Jenna-Lea a great host and the accommodation is very quiet and private. We would stay again

I had a lovely time staying there! Jenna was lovely and made sure I had all I needed ! I highly recommend!

We were back in Paraparumu area and wouldn't like to stay anywhere else! Once again a great stay. Thank you to Jenna & Ray. Highly recommended.

We really felt comfortable and Jeane-Lea was really welcoming. She gave us fresh apples and great local travel advices. The room was really nice especially the shower.

Quiet, comfortable and welcoming. Everything we needed and location was perfect for us.

Linda's place was suitable for us as we were travelling, great stop over location.

A very comfortable, clean studio with everything you need for a couple of days stay. Great location close to village, cafes and beach. Great communication.

This was the perfect little spot, beautiful and comfortable. We had everything we needed and Linda was a great host!

Lovely Raumati stopoff

A perfectly formed little hideaway , with a great garden and table, and tasteful decor. Three minutes from a good swimming beech even in April in the rain.

Great cozy clean spot

Linda's place is small but well appointed. Close to beach and eating places. Recommended if want peace and quiet.

Very nicely set up and spotlessly clean. Enjoyable.

Nice and cosy, clean and tidy, close to shops. Great communication. Would recommend to anyone.:)

Great little bungalow, super comfortable bed, and Elizabeth is simply a wonderful host and just a lovely human. Could not have been more welcoming and was so eager to help me enjoy the Kapiti Coast. Thanks Elizabeth! Highly recommended.

Elizabeth's place was exactly what we were looking for:) very comfortable beds to rest, nice and cozy environment and Elizabeth was not only very welcoming but also gave us tips on what to do in the city. She made coffee, tea and milk available for us and made sure we were happy and comfortable. It was a very nice place to stay and very close to Wellington! Great!

Its the second time i stayed in paraparaumu , and elizabeth as a host was really humble, polite and a great human being. The hospitality was really good I didn't found any drawbacks and yeah the place I stayed in I can describe in on word "CUTE" , I just loved the place. Thanx again elizabeth , I hope to come back and to stay at ur place.

Great host and very accommodating with time of arrival. Easy to communicate with and a well set up converted sleep out. Perfect for a stop over on route to the Wellington ferry.

I stayed with Elizabeth on a 2 month placement at the health centre which was a great location to stay. Elizabeth was very accommodating and went over and above to make me feel welcome. She was very knowledgable and was great at showing me some of the parts around town. I would definitely recommend staying with Elizabeth she was a kind and easy person to stay with, especially for such a long amount of time

Really lovely, cosy wee place to spend a few nights. Elizabeth was a brilliant host and made sure lights and heaters were on for me when I came home late. Felt like home for three days!

WONDERFUL! If I could rate 6 stars I would! Elizabeth accommodated our stay when I accidentally came on a wrong day n she welcomed us so wonderfully. The room was so clean and unique n it was so cosy and private! Besides that the bathroom is on the next building(which was still pretty near and accessible),the whole stay was too comfortable and fun. Elizabeth even offered us free breakfast and toast and allowed us to prepare our own freely in her kitchen and we had a wonderful chat together. Definitely would come back again if I ever drop by this area.

Steph was great and her place is so beautiful. If you are looking for the seaside vibe then this is a must.... she also has GREAT taste in music.

Although short, my stay was comfortable. Everything was as expected. If the need arises i will stay there again.

great location walk to beach, shops, airport. Steph's a great host easy going and easy to be with. Nice size bedroom with lovely bed/electric blanket, nice that its away from her room so you have your own space. Heat pump. The cats are no problem at all

Steph's house is gorgeous. Beautiful view, great location. A wonderful little getaway. :)

Steph is a lovely host and was very welcoming. Though very close to the shops, restaurants and the sailing point for Kapiti Island, the property has a very secluded secret garden feel. The room is spacious and has doors opening to a great terrace space. Highly recommended.

Lovely place to stay and Steph is a wonderfully hospitable host. The room is large and has awesome views out to Kapiti Island (depending on the weather!) Perfect place to stay if you are planning a visit to the island. Highly recommend :-)

We loved our stay at Steph's place. She was really hospitable and made us feel very welcome. The cats were also very friendly! The room is lovely and private, has great views and was really bright and airy - even in the slightly dull weather we unfortunately experienced! We'd highly recommend a stay here.

Great value with pleasant a pleasant Sea View. Steph was a great host and a great musician and singer as well.

Cute little place and a wonderful host. Great spa A++

Simply outstanding. Everything you need for a short or extended stay. A short stroll to the beachfront or Kapiti airport. Fresh fruit in the fridge. And the spa is simply the best!! Highly recommended.

Was so good I extended my stay. Will definitely stay again and recommend Christine's place to anybody. The spa is outstanding!

A place to come back again! The B&B is located in a quiet neighborhood, surrounded by a lovely garden and a small tarn. Within 10min you are at the beach, state highway and train station. Janett and Toby provided me with detailed information how to find the B&B as it is located in the back part of the property and you will cross 2 other houses (less than 3min drive). This location is perfect for kids as they can play in front of the house (there is a yard gate) without any risk. Once arrived I had been warmly welcomed by Cara and Anton (2 of their 3 kids) and Milo (their lovely, friendly dog) and Cara kindly offered me a cup of tea while Anton was organizing that I can access the free wifi. The bed- and bathroom in the cottage (your own entrance) is newly decorated (incl. heating) and provides enough space. The marvelous breakfast will be served at the family house just across the garden. Janett, Toby and their kids are cosmopolitan people which travelled themselves quite a lot and provided me with great tipps around Paraparaumu as well as the rest of NZ. I really appreciated the warm and lovely family atmosphere.

Beautiful location and property, with accommodation of a very high standard. Very welcoming and friendly hosts.

Close to the beach and a lovely family.

A delightful studio apartment - perfect if you are passing through on a long journey up north or you are planning a weekend around Wellington.

Great stay just new Great Hosts. I think they will have fridge in now which makes things a bit easier.

Great place on a massive property where you can relax and unwind. Lots of natural light and modern room

Lovely place to stay. Quiet, beautiful environment to relax in with friendly hosts. Great location. Clean and welcoming room. Enjoyed the added bonus of the pool table. Thanks so much.

What a wonderful quiet place to spend a weekend. We loved it! Such lovely hosts.

A fantastic place to stay. Very well equipped, warm (it was a cold weekend), very comfortable beds & a beautiful view. Close to some great cafes and restaurants. Communication with Wayne was great. We were warmly welcomed by Sarah on our arrival. I would highly recommend this airbnb!

Thank you for the great accommodation. The whole family enjoyed our stay.. Sarah was fantastic too greeting us when we arrived and even letting us follow her to New World for supplies. We'd love to stay again. Cheers!

Modern, Clean, Family friendly and Comfortable. My family of 4 and I had an amazing time. Ranging from the age of 9 to 50 there was something for everyone. Relaxation for the adults with beautiful scenery and the park for the children so close that I could watch my son. The space was big enough that with four adults we were not in each others faces. The beach, a four square, nice restaurants and small shopping area is in walking distance. Thank you Wayne for letting us enjoy your clean and modern home.

What a great flat. Right across the road from a park and the beach. Short stroll to the local shops Had the best nights sleep there in the comfortable beds. Fully functional kitchen. Lovely bath and shower. Can't fault the place. Would recommend to family and friends

Excellent accommodation and fantastic views. would recommend to everyone

Wonderful cosy home and great value....very handy to beach

Great spacious place to relax and recharge. Beautiful walks by the beach and Marine Parade Cafe/Restaurant was a highlight. Thanks!

We had a lovely weekend stay the place was very comfortable and well equipped. It was also private and quiet and close to the beach and shops. Great bed too. Glen was very accommodating and everything was very easy. Would highly recommend.

We really enjoyed it here! Super located, two big and nice decorated rooms with own kitchen, bath and entrance door and super friendly "neighbors" right next

We just did a quick overnight before catching the boat to Kapiti Island, and this was a perfect place to stay. Sleek, modern, interesting design with Scandinavian touches. Comfortable beds and spectacular guest bathroom with heated floor. Thoughtful hosts were easy to talk to and made it easy for us to cook in their deluxe kitchen. We also had our own sitting area.

It was nice and warm and the people were friendly. Had a great stay

Great room, great place and very warm welcome. We really enjoyed to stay at this place and felt home from the first step into the house. Super nice hosts - go and enjoy as we highly recommend it.

Skønt hus og et dejligt værelse og badeværelse.

Very comfortable beds, lovely bathroom, great beach, hosts very quiet but available, easy access to Wellington, really clean and modern, great people. Oh for another visit one day.

Had a lovely stay and appreciated the details that made it feel like home away from home! Loved the spa. Queens Park great to ride through.

Great spot to access the beach and other great places. Fantastic hosts who will make your stay pleasurable. The place is exceptionally well kept. Totally recommend this place.

a very comfortable bed, great bath and shower with separate guest lounge. highly recommended

wonderful host! good experience to stay. Separate bath room and toilet assure the maximum privacy and convenience of living. thanks Clair

Clare and her daughter Lily, were warm and friendly and had the house comfy and toasted when we arrived (: The view from the bedroom was spectacular and nothing beats falling asleep to the sounds crashing waves outside your window. A cozy and quaint little place! Clare's recommendation for us to check out the nearby Raumati Social Club (Cafe), was a great one! The burgers are to die for!

Clare and her daughter were lovely, relaxed and very welcoming. Thanks a lot for a superb stay!

Clare was instantly a great friend, we enjoyed a nice chat and walk along the endless beach she lives on. The cute bedroom is right on the beach with the most amazing views. Highly recommend Clare's place to stay.

Lovely cozy home, beautiful views from the bedroom, and easy walk/bike to the shops to grab a bite to eat. Clare was a lovely host, really helpful - went out of her way to pick us up when one of our bikes broke, and even lent us a bike to use while ours was being repaired! Great company, super chill, would definitely recommend.

My experience was amazing. Clare was the perfect hostesses and the room for me was like out of a novel. The view is incredible!!!!! I would totally recommend this place to anyone that wants peace and quiet.

The site is excellent

Very nice house! Directly beside the beach. Very comfortable bed!

Ideal place to stay before visiting Kapiti Island. Our hosts were very helpful. We were pleased to be able to leave our car in their drive. Would recommend.

It`s the perfect place! We went here before going with the ferry to the south island and it is about an hour from Wellington. We did a early check in and the comunication was good. When we came to the house we were welcomed with tea and snacks and that was just lovely. The couple is very worm and kind. The house is very nice and you can see the ocean from the backyard! The room is spaceious and you feel like you have our own space. Its the perfect space to relax and for us do some planing. They had very fast wifi.

The host canceled this reservation 56 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

We stayed for a month with Joan and Cam, who are both very lovely and welcoming. We felt very comfortable in their home, which had everything we needed. Joan and Cam were helpful in all aspects and provided us with the basics and beyond. We enjoyed talking with them and learned a lot about the area and New Zealand.

Cam was welcoming host in Joan's absence and I enjoyed my stay there. Thanks George

Die Gastgeber sind sehr nett, das Zimmer ist großzügig und das Bad sehr sauber. Das Wohngebiet ist sehr ruhig. Allerdings nah am Flughafen, wo aber nur kleine Maschinen landen. Für einen kurzen Aufenthalt auf jeden Fall zu empfehlen!

Cam was very nice and hospitable. The house was lovely, immaculate and in a nice location. It has a nice garden and is in a quiet area. The bedroom was very pleasant, the bed was really comfortable and the bed linen exceptionally fresh and crisp. We had a bathroom to ourselves and we were welcome to use the kitchen, dining area and lounge. Excellent value for money.

We stayed two nights at Joan and Cam's place and we really enjoyed it. The bed is very comfortable and the whole house is clean. The kitchen is fully equipped and Joan and Cam did everything to make us feel home. They also are very kind, helpful and friendly people who we enjoyed being around.

Very pleasant accommodation and nice host (Cam as Joan was away). We found it convenient to catch Picton ferry in morning

Very comfortable and clean. Joan and Campbell were welcoming and friendly. I'll happily recommend.

Joan and Cam were really friendly and helpful. They really made us feel at home. Our room was very comfortable and clean. We stayed with them during the eartquake and they immediately made sure that we are ok. I would really recommend this accomodation to anyone.

Lovely place and kind hosts.

Great value for money convenient and comfortable place to stay in Kapiti, better than a motel

Lovely, quiet place to relax. Lots of space, clean and comfortable. Good location - it's about 20 mins walk to a few restaurants and shops, and maybe 5-10 mins more until you're on the beach, with great views along the coast.

Perfect for our one night stay. Location was great as we could walk to friends. Apartment is well equipped and spotless and Raewyn lovely. Thank you

Quiet, peaceful retreat - host very friendly and accommodating.

Handy location. Comfy bed. Great communication.

Clean and comfortable apartment. Very modern and nicely decorated.

很不错的地方,还有免费咖啡提供

Lindy is an amazing host, you can feel it as your own place. House is lovely and quite.

Good location, quiet area, close to cycle path ,beach and cafes. Newly decorated, very clean and comfortable , prompt and friendly communication and easy going hosts. We will no doubt return .
