New Zealand Homestays, Homestay Accommodation

An increasing number of New Zealanders open the doors of their private family homes to paying visitors coining the phrase 'homestay' accommodation. By choosing to stay with a New Zealand homestay family, you have an unique opportunity to immerse yourself in Kiwi homes, culture, style and language.

Homestay accommodation is as varied as the housing styles found throughout the country, but typically a homestay accommodation means that you stay in rooms or annexes within the family home.

Homestays may be urban or rural houses, cottages, villas, working farms or seaside lodges.

You may find that some homestay accommodations offer three meals a day with the host family or just do 'bed and breakfast' style accommodation. Often hosts will often happily pick up and drop off guests at nearby locations with some prior arrangement and help with ongoing travel plans.

Staying with a homestay family in their homestay accommodation is particularly recommended if you are interested in meeting like-minded travellers or are wanting to improve your understanding and speaking of English.

New Zealanders are known for providing a warm welcome and homestay accommodation generally provides a relaxing and fun atmosphere for guests of all ages.
