My wife, son (12 yrs) and I, just completed a one week stay at this lovely apartment. It is extremely comfortable, well appointed, and convenient to anything one wishes to do in Auckland. We highly recommend!
We have just spent 3 nights here and absolutely loved it. The kids didn’t want to leave! Close to all amenities and 8 minutes to the CBD Highly recommend!
This is a great upscale apartment in the Ponsonby neighborhood. 2 minute walk to restaurants and shopping. The apartment itself is beautiful - avant-garde decor while also being comfy (heated bathroom floors, big TV, sleek bathrooms, automatic blinds). It was easy to reach all the sites in Auckland. We looked forward to coming "home" every night.
We had a great stay in this apartment. The property is very well appointed. It has great views and was very comfortable. It was perfectly clean and tidy. Couldn’t ask for more.

Hi Kerrin,
Thanks for taking the effort and time to write a favorable review of your stay at our apt4, 3Redmond St, Ponsonby Auckland NZ.
Kind regards, Bede & Deborah McElwee.
We stayed here 10 nights during the Womens Word Cup.
The location was great, a short walk to the bus and to coffee shops, restaurants, convenience stores, and wine store. Access to the building with codes was simple and we parked one car in the garage below the building with no issues. No stairs to climb and the elevator was always prompt.
The beds were comfortable, the bathrooms were a good size and the apartment was great for what we needed. The owner arranged a cleaning mid way thru the stay without additional cost which was great.
The only recommendation that I would make would be to supply paper towels (maybe more a US thing) and the apartment had a K cup coffee maker but only 1 coffee pod for 10 nights.
We would definitely stay here again.
Our Kiwi friend who joined us was a former neighborhood resident. He walked in and said "well... this is flash as!". And then we went to his favorite coffee / breakfast place, one minute's walk away.
A good summary overall; an upscale apartment, right in 3 Lamps and quite walkable to the north half of Ponsonby. Well appointed and supplied. With windows closed, quiet in the bedrooms, even on a street festival weekend night. Great views from those bedrooms at sunset. We had a trouble with the wifi, but that appeared to be the ISP's fault. Overall a great stay.
Overall a good apartment. Lovely decor and fantastic location. Check in details weren’t overly clear as the entrance is actually on a different street, as is the garage. But property is lovely. Extra features that really make it nice
We stayed in this lovely property for 5 nights at the end of 2019 / start of 2020.
Everything about the property matched the description.
The property is very well located; close to Ponsonby Rd cafes & shopping, and a gentle walk to the Viaduct area. There is also an excellent New World shopping centre within convenient walking distance.
Whilst not large, the living spaces had every amenity we needed. The beds were very comfortable and the bathrooms clean and spacious.
The bonus of our stay was being able to see the fireworks shoot off the Sky Tower at New Year.
Highly recommended.
Super comfortable, very well appointed apartment in gorgeous Ponsonby. Incredibly styled interior. Fantastic neighbourhood and within walking distance to shops, cafes and restaurants. Loved our stay. Thanks to Bede & Deb!

Wonderful Home in Ponsonby
Enjoyed the home and location to finish off our Australia, Cruise, New Zealand Holiday. After an enjoyable 4 weeks , we spent the last week in this very comfortable 3 bedroom 2 bath unit. Being able to
Be downtown made everything easy to access. Walking to dinner,
Shopping, and just enjoying the people,sounds, etc. of the three lamps district was relaxing. The unit has everything you need. The owners were very gracious and allowed us an early check in, and the
Use of the garage parking. We found taking our rental car out on a few day trips was easy to get onto the main thoroughfares from this location.
One of the nicest rentals we have booked through VRBO!
