Find the best beach house rentals

Beach house rentals let you enjoy all the fun of the beach alongside the relaxing comforts of home. Not only do beach houses have plenty of space with the home-from-home feel, but the some of the best ones will put you just steps away from the sand and surf. Take a look at how you can find the best beach house rentals.

Benefits of beach house rentals

When you book a beach house rental, you'll have an easy time enjoying an unforgettable experience. A house rental is a great option for a beach vacation, as features like a full kitchen and lots of communal space are ideal for letting everyone relax after a long day in the sun. Many beach house rentals will have exclusive features as well, like a pool or a private path to the beach.

You'll find quite a bit of variety among beach house rentals. You can book spacious rentals that can sleep the extended family and even friends on your holiday, or more cosy homes that are better suited for small families or couples. In both cases, you'll find yourself just a few steps away from the sand and surf. Some top family beach houses options can be found on a holiday in Dunedin and Napier

Book a beach house with a private pool

Beaches have plenty to offer if you're looking for fun in the water, but sometimes you need a break from the ocean. As relaxing as the sea breeze and the sound of waves rolling in can be, there might be times when you prefer to lounge by the water with a little more privacy and a little less noise. When you book a beach house with a private pool, you can enjoy all the swimming you want without having to deal with the salt water, sand and wind. Plus, you get to enjoy a private pool all to yourself rather than having to share with other visitors to a beach area.

A beach house with a private pool tends to be quite luxurious, so don't be surprised if you find other posh amenities included as well. These houses tend to be quite spacious, as private pools are a popular amenity for travelling families. Additionally, a beach house with a private pool can be great if you're visiting a surfing beach. While you can surf off the shore all you like, you'll need a tranquil pool if you want to get any swimming in, and that's one of the best ways to relax after an afternoon surfing.

Discover luxurious beachfront rentals

If you're looking to take your relaxation and holiday experience to the next level, you'll want to book one of the luxurious beachfront rentals. These holiday accommodation options let you enjoy the beach as well as a plethora of other amenities designed to make your experience as relaxing and easy as possible. Conveniences like a full kitchen are just the beginning, as you'll often find them equipped with state-of-the-art appliances as well.

One of the most important amenities to look out for when you want the luxurious beachfront experience is a hot tub. Nothing lets you relax quite like a hot tub at the end of a long day adventuring by the shore. Beachfront rentals with a hot tub let you indulge in this relaxation whenever you like, even if you want to do it in the middle of the night. In some rentals, the hot tub is outdoors, so you'll be able to enjoy the sounds of waves and cool beachfront air while soaking in a hot tub as well.

Explore a beach cottage

Beach cottage rentals are among the best ways to experience the shore if you're looking for a cosy and laid-back experience. Cottage rentals tend to be more modest in comparison to their larger counterparts, but you'll still find a surprising amount of space within that's often enough for the whole family to sleep comfortably. Still, you can easily find quainter and smaller cottages suitable for couples as well.

When you book a beach cottage, you'll want to prioritise cosy comfort above everything else to get the ultimate cottage experience. Additionally, you'll find that cottages are often located away from the more crowded areas of the shore, offering tranquillity via seclusion in many cases. Still, you won't have any trouble finding cottages closer to towns and cities too that still offer the home-from-home feeling without the inconvenience of being too remote.
