The area is famous for its multitude of innovative and creative dining spots. For great mediterranean flavour visit Lokanta on Richmond Road, or pop down to Ponsonby Road for your pick of hip bars and restaurants. It does get busy (especially over the weekend) so make sure to make a booking beforehand!

If you’re after shopping, you won’t be disappointed with Ponsonby’s offering. Unique and stylish boutiques, local designers, and upmarket homewares fill the streets. There are also some great quirky souvenir and gift stores (for example Iko Iko), for something a bit different to bring back home.

Ponsonby also has great public transportation links. Catch the Inner Link or Outer Link , which run every 10 minutes, to get to Britomart or the CBD.


Nearby attractions
• Ponsonby Road holds dozens of bars and restaurants

• Close to all central attractions (only a 30 minute walk from CBD!)

Good quiet location, walkable distance to restaurants & cafes. Didn’t expect the steep steps to get to the front door. Made it tricky handling luggage in the rain. Very slippery. No indication of this in the photos. The noise from the people living above us was loud and woke everyone up between 4am - 7am. We could hear them talking. Also the only shower is in the ensuite - again not in the photos- but workable. The villa was nicely decorated, warm with Air conditioner & very clean. Beds very comfortable. Overall lovely place & would come back.

Attending a Course

We had stayed upstairs the previous year but this flat was more spacious with a great outdoor seating area and a great kitchen. The bathroom was attached to a bedroom which was a bit annoying but we coped. We hope to come back next year.

Mixed bag

Although everything about the flat was wonderful, and the amenities were great, the main problem is the noise from the upstairs flat, caused by inconsiderate occupants, which we experienced over two weekends. This is the only reason we would not stay again.

Inner city getaway

Somewhat bureaucratic booking process but worth it in the end. Very handy to Ponsonby Road and inner Auckland. Exceptionally well equipped kitchen. TV is digital only so have your passwords handy. Single bathroom is ensuite to one of the bedrooms so a little awkward for two couples. Heaps of indoor living space and private deck.

A perfect city apartment

This property is better than the photographs would suggest. Everything is in great working order, the kitchen is the best equipped that we have come across recently, the furnishings were extremely clean and relatively new and the bed in the master bedroom was very comfortable. We stayed for over five weeks, during lockdown 2020 and loved the space and the light. And there’s a great surprise waiting for you when you go out on the rear terrace. Enjoy your stay.
