Holiday Homes

Staying in a classic Kiwi bach-style holiday home (or crib, as they’re known locally) is one of the most quintessential New Zealand experiences, especially here in Murihiku Southland. Ideal for travellers who value their own space and the freedom to self‑cater, these holiday homes are made for relaxed stays and time together with family or friends.

Across the region, you’ll find cribs in all shapes and settings, from ocean‑view and lakefront stays to farm‑side and rainforest hideaways, with options to suit couples, families, and larger groups. It’s an easy, comfortable way to slow down and make memories, Southland‑style.
