Luxury rentals in Oceania

Taupo's Edge

Listen to the crackling of a wood burning fire as you gaze overtop the lush canopy leading down to Lake Taupo at this nature-loving villa in New Zealand. Sunbathe in the courtyard, kick back in a bean bag chair, and cool off in the alfresco shower. When you’re ready to explore, start by following a nearby bush track that winds through the forest and leads down to the lake.   Flow from inside to out as freely as the cool cross-breeze thanks to wall-length openings on nearly every perimeter wall. Under a vaulted-ceiling, the open concept main room is ready to host unforgettable family dinners, late nights with friends, and lazy afternoons. Sip cocktails and watch the sailboats from the balcony while the kids watch a movie in the Smart TV lounge or play soccer on the courtyard’s lawn. Stop by one of the local markets in Taupo and pick up some freshly caught lake fish for a barbeque. Dine at the alfresco set, letting the forest and lake views set the perfect tone. There are 3 parking spaces, a garage, and security cameras, so invite some new friends. When it’s late, move the party inside and let your inner mixologist get creative at the bar. Lake Taupo, Huka Falls, and Mount Tauhara are just a few of the natural wonders nearby, so bring your hiking boots. If there’s an angler in the group, boat rentals and fishing charters are available from Lakefun Taupo. While you’re out on the water, swing by Taupo Maori Carvings, a historic rockface in Acacia Bay. Then, head 11 kilometers into Taupo for a night on the town.  Copyright © Luxury Retreats. All rights reserved.

Cloud 9

The sea, boundless and blue, dominates this hilltop villa in the Bay of Islands. It fills the views from the sun-kissed deck and even finds its way indoors, in touches like the kitchen’s sea-green cabinets. Pack a picnic to take down to the beach a half-mile away, or book a helicopter or jet-ski ride for an adrenaline rush along with dramatic coastal scenery.   Follow a winding private road to the heights above the Bay of Oneroa—and your own outdoor living areas with a pool, hot tub, lounging and dining furniture, and a barbecue. There’s an espresso machine to fuel all your holiday adventures, and a smart TV and Wi-Fi to help you relax when you return from them.   This vacation rental is bordered on 3 sides by a wraparound deck, and a glass wall connects the al-fresco spaces with the indoor great room. Sunlight bounces off the honey-toned wood floors and whitewashed ceiling in the living and dining areas, and sea green cabinets are a soft touch in the fully equipped kitchen and breakfast bar.   This luxury property has one honeymoon-worthy master suite with a king bed, en-suite bathroom, and its own terrace. The other 2 bedrooms have a king bed and 2 twin beds, and share access to a hall bathroom, making them ideal for a family traveling with children.   From the villa’s perch, it’s a half-mile down the hill to the nearest beach. But your explorations should continue to the nearby town of Russell, where you can stop for lunch or dinner at waterfront cafes and restaurants housed in historic buildings, and Paihia, New Zealand’s first capital and the starting point for your choice of boat cruises, swims with dolphins, and fishing excursions going after the area’s famed black marlin.   Copyright © Luxury Retreats.
