Our stay at Claires Home has been the best experience we've ever made during our 3 month traveling experience in Australia and New Zealand!! This is THE HIGHLIGHT! Claire and her husband are incredible hosts, very kind and generous, professional and welcoming. We felt so comfortable during our communication and during our stay at their place. Their house is the most beautiful home we've ever seen - it is so stylish, well designed and furnished. Everything is well equipped, completely clean and tidy and perfect just to feel comfortable, inspired and relaxed. There wasn't ONE single point we missed or we could complain about. When we arrived, we were surprised by a wonderful welcome gift basket with snacks and drinks and our kids even found personal gift on their beds (they've bee so happy!). And even in the play hut in the garden there was a welcome sign written for our kids so they really felt at home. Such lovely details!
Chris and Claire explained everything perfectly, left a great manual with super helpful recommendations for Auckland trips and restaurants.
The garden and the pool are just perfect and beautiful! We enjoyed swimming in the pool, relaxing on the well furnished terrace (sunbed, chairs, table...), enjoyed BBQ outside. The kids loved the trampoline as well! The garden is so beautiful, quiet, has the perfect mix of sunshine and shadow ... it's just everything you could want and need for a nice vacation!
The neighborhood POINT CHEV is really really nice - it's just a short walk or drive to almost everything we needed: A quick drive with the car (but also easyly to go with the bus which stops just around the corner) to Auckland city centre, beaches, a shopping mall. But we also just walked to the zoo with the kids which was really nice, enjoyed the parks, the point chev beach, point chev park with its nice playground and the nice cafés ! And the kids loved the visit at the Motat so much. Everything just a short walk away!
We don't know what elso to say but THANK YOU for this wonderful time we had at your place! And if we could we would definitely rate you much more than 5 stars because it would be well deserved.
