Our stay at Pia’s place was the highlight of our visit to Auckland. It began with the booking of the place and ended when we left. She responded immediately after we booked which was 3 months before and we communicated throughout that time. Our flight from the US arrived early in the morning so she allowed us an early check in and was there to greet us and show us around. She had a welcome gift of wine, chocolates and coffee, and even had milk in the fridge for our coffee! She showed us around Milford and the surrounding areas and was always available for anything we needed. The house was spotless, beautifully decorated and fully stocked with anything we could need. She thought of everything. The view from the place is stunning. The sunrises every morning are incredible. We never wanted to leave. Although the house is not in the city center of Auckland it is easily accessible by bus, cab or Uber. There are restaurants, a mall and shopping within walking distance. I’ve stayed at many Airbnb’s all over the world and this is my number one favorite! Thanks Pia, we will always cherish the memory!
