We had a wonderful time in Wainuiomata, a quite little suburb near Wellington. Relatively close to a small shopping area, and hiking trails. Bus stop a 5 minute walk for a quick ride down to Lower Hutt or on to Wellington, if desired. The hosts, Prem and Sneh were exceptionally pleasant and met us at the house upon arrival. The house is an older home but the pricing and location worked well for us. The kitchen has modern appliances and a large set of very nice pots and pans if you like to cook, which made me very happy. It is a well equipped kitchen with everything I needed. The house is sunny and warm and in a quite neighborhood. Nice views from the windows and large wrap around deck with a nice barbecue, which we used for steaks, burgers and lamb chops. Spacious and well equipped home. Comfortable beds made for a good nights sleep. Great internet with no interruptions. Lots of space for a family. We were just two, but really enjoyed having the extra space for the month we stayed. Thanks to our wonderful hosts; we really enjoyed our stay. Ellen
