Very pleasant accommodation

The property is comfortable, clean, modern and looks new. It is located on a pretty street and is close to shops, a supermarket and restaurants. The owners responded quickly to a few minor issues. It wasn't clear to me from the listing that it was a unit behind their house, but that didn't affect our stay. It was just what we needed and I would be happy to stay again.

About the host

Hosted by Khyati

Host profile image
We’re a family of four, I am a wife and a mum to two young kids, and we also have a lovely, friendly pet who’s very much part of our family. Hosting is something we do together, and we genuinely enjoy it!

We manage this property ourselves, and each of us contributes in our own way to make the space welcoming, clean, and comfortable for every guest. This home has been prepared with care and love, and it means a lot to us that you feel at home here too. We are always happy to help if you need anything during your stay.

Why they chose this property

We chose this area because it perfectly captures what we love about Auckland — a peaceful, community feel with everything you need close by. Tucked between the lively hubs of Dominion Road and Mt. Eden Road, it offers the best of both worlds: quiet, leafy streets and vibrant food and culture just around the corner.

What we enjoy most is the walkability. You can take a morning stroll up Mt. Eden for stunning city views, grab coffee at a local café, or explore a world of cuisine within minutes. The area also has a strong sense of history, with charming heritage homes that give it character — and yet it's so close to the CBD, Eden Park, and Newmarket.

It’s a place that feels like home, whether you’re here for a few days or a few months.

What makes this property unique

Our home offers a rare blend of historic character and modern comfort. From the outside, it retains its original charm as part of one of Auckland’s older, character-filled neighbourhoods — a quiet, tree-lined area steeped in local history. Step inside, however, and you'll find a thoughtfully updated interior with all the modern conveniences you need for a comfortable stay.

What truly sets this property apart is its peaceful atmosphere despite being so centrally located. You’re just minutes from major attractions like Eden Park, Mt. Eden Summit, and Newmarket, yet you’ll wake up to birdsong instead of traffic. Add to that the walkable access to international cuisine, cafés, and shopping, and you’ve got a perfect mix of serenity and connection in the heart of Auckland.

Whether you're visiting for business, healthcare, or leisure, this retreat offers a unique balance of old-world charm, modern living, and unbeatable location.
