About this property

The Hidden treasure

Relax in your own private accommodation at the end of a quiet and safe cul de sac. Self check-in for your flexibility and very fast internet.

Close to the West Coast beaches and the beautiful Waitakere Ranges.

Shops are a 4 minute walk down the hill and include supermarket, pharmacy, bottle shop, baker, dairy, fish and chip shop and coffee shop.

Supermarkets and Uber eats also deliver.

The space:
Private and quiet space to relax and use to explore the area or to work. Fast internet! TV has Netflix too.
Guest access
You have the place to yourself. Fully insulated so it's warm in winter and cool in summer.
Other things to note
The TV is connected to live TV via a dongle so we have Freeview and Netflix with using the other remote.

No smoking or vaping in the rooms but outside on the driveway is fine.

Tucked Away

This was the perfect place nicely tucked at the end of a cal-de-sac and super close to our venue. It has a great space for a couple if you are just zipping to Auckland for a one night event, would definitely book this again in the future, many thanks.

This was my first stay after arriving at AKL airport. The bed felt great! Convenient to shopping area, walking & French Bay. Hosts were very kind, but not obtrusive. House, yard, garden attractive, functional & neat as a pin. Enjoyed my stay!

The hosts were delightful, pleasant and very welcoming, especially the male host, he did almost anything we needed and required.Please understand... below is NOT a criticism... It’s just genuine feedback, that "may" be advantageous for the comfort and convenience of future guests.There wasn't any salt...There were "not enough" knives and forks...The hosts' washing machine was started too early in the mornings (guests are on holiday, and to be woken too early, didn’t allow people to have a sleep in, because the w/ machine was directly next to the sleeping/ bedroom area.In sincerity... the location was ideal, the furnishings were comfortable and adequate and the overall experience was great, thanks.Kindest and most sincerest regards, Chaplain: Freddie & Janey Holmes.
