Sherryl and Ron’s place is amazing and they are such nice hosts. It is a separate one bedroom apartment and was great for a long stay, and I’m sure would be nice for a short one too. They have a wonderful garden in back that they encouraged me to use which I then cooked with in the fully stocked kitchen. She even had the essentials In the refrigerator for me.
Takapuna is a beautiful neighborhood and all the restaurants and shops are a short walk from their place (like 5 minutes).
The internet and the laundry in the apartment worked really well.
