We loved staying at this well located apartment! Everything was clean, well equipped and very comfortable for 2 couples. Jane and Roger were amazing hosts and would highly recommend staying here!
The apartment was lovely and very well located. Access was a little confusing at the beginning and we did experience elevator problems but the apartment was certainly good value and c perfect for 2 couples sharing.
The apartment is lovely and clearly up to or better than our expectations. The location is ideal - a short walk down to the Queens wharf.And Jane, our host, was very helpful and responsive to questions and special requests. We were able to drop our luggage off well before check in which was a huge benefit.
Jane was most helpful. Space was well appointed and a convenient location. Quiet for a city apartment. Washer is in apartment and dryer is down the hall but Jane left coins for the dryer.
Wow - beautiful accommodations! The apartment is very stylish, immaculate and has loads of room. The balcony and back patio was a treat to enjoy a nice glass of wine. Owner was very attentive to any needs we had. Best VRVO unit we have every stayed at.

Once we figured out the parking and the area we really enjoyed our stay in Auckland. The locationwas great and we enjoyed walking downtown to the many shops and places to eat. Never been to Auckland before and this was a great place that was centrally located and convenient to see a lot.
From weeks prior to arriving, Jane was very helpful with detailed information and advice, always providing a prompt reply to any questions. The availability of a carpark was extremely useful, the kitchen well stocked and the location ideal for the wharf and the viaduct.We had a great stay thank you.
We really enjoyed our stay. The Condo was very nice and we love how it opened to the balcony. The location is perfect. It's close to lots of restaurants, the wharf and all the ferries.

Thankyou so much Nathalie, it was a real pleasure hosting you. I hope you managed to experience some of those great restaurants around the waterfront - and that you can get back in the summer and experience the newly refurbished rooftop pool complex. It's divine!
Cheers

Wonderful host, cool historical building, and terrific location for access to waterfront and various neighborhoods and activities. Great pools and hot tubs, gym access. The balcony is great though it looks out onto a garage (fine with us, just good to know in order to manage expectations :-).
This was perfect for our 3 month stay. Walking distance to everything including the ferry and train station. The hosts were extremely helpful with many suggestions of where to go around town. If you are looking for a great stay this is it.
We had a wonderful stay in Auckland and Jane was an incredible host! The condo was perfect and beautifully decorated. She had wonderful advice on the city and I would definitely recommend!!!!
Great central location walking distance to everything, clean and bright, very comfortable. Proximity to Sky Tower made for easy navigation home, too. Highly recommend.

About the host
Hosted by Jane Gwynne
I'm lucky enough to live in one of the world's greatest cities and with family in London and NY, need no excuse to head to the other side of the world! My husband Roger and I got the travel bug five years ago (once we'd done our bit raising three daughters) and fell in love with Italy and the south of Portugal. At home we love boating, fishing, cycling and motorcycling (Roger 's thing) ... and are more than enthusiastic about our food and wine! The weekends will find us discovering new and old experiences in and around Auckland, or visiting our Coromandel bach for a spot of fishing, paddle boarding and casual entertaining.
What makes this property unique
We love the large, sunny covered garden terrace, beautifully planted with quality outdoor furniture - perfect for al fresco dining. Our guests tell us this is one of the best apartments in the inner city - in particular they really appreciate the 'Insider's Guide to Auckland' we've put together; all our favourite things to eat, do and see in and around our gorgeous city.
