Comfort and calm

The property is new, well equipped, comfortable, with great views of the basin and big skies. There is good wifi. The area is residential but just 5 mins away there's a great bus service into the city centre (20mins) and to the nearby beach [10mins]. Parking is available but we used public transport to explore Auckland and the coast.

Perfect getaway

We really enjoyed our stay. The property is perfectly fitted out with all the amenities you could need and it’s a very convenient spot, close to the city. The owners were very helpful and pleasant to deal with. We will definitely be coming back!
