New Zealand Holiday Booked at last.

Well we have finally booked our family trip to New Zealand for October next year. We have been trying to have a family holiday for a couple of years now. We would really like to stay in rented accomadation not motel's as there are a few of us. Does anyone know of a good site we could find private rental's available in New Zealand? I am having a problem finding any.

Some Time

Looks to me you have been planning this trip for some time now:

Anyways, if your needs are not too high and if you want to save some meoney, you may want to check this out:

They have very cheap accomodations for New Zealand (I checked it out). Since I don't know the exact location of your trip, it's better if you check yourself.

Goodluck!

New Zealand is such a wonderful place to stay for vacation and for one to stay for a longer time. They have great and refreshing sceneries and nature abound everywhere.

Goodluck for a safe trip, tay and may you have the most wonderful vacation ever! :)

yes, i tried it a few

yes, i tried it a few times. most people are friendly (and unarmed ;) ) and you can have fun times, get great accomodation and meet new people, but sometimes you meet some crazy people, like this one chick :/ ... but i guess its a good experience in 95%.

its a good idea to exchange a few emails first to get a feeling about the person, or see who was a guest there and ask this person first - sometimes they might not be honest (or just dont say everything) on a public website.

I have heard a lot lately

I have heard a lot lately about exchange accomadation here in Australia. I am still a bit funny about it. But it has been on the news a lot over here and seems like it could be a good idea. You would just have to check it out very carefully.
