Our stay was simply amazing. Walking into Richard's place, we felt like we were arriving home. Beautiful garden, the adorable space, filled with light. The fact that the bedroom, kitchen and bathroom are all in separate rooms made it feel like a small house. The beach, grocery and fantastic restaurants are well within walking distance and little did we know that when in the street you get a great view of the Auckland city center skyline. We so appreciated being able to come home to such a beautiful place and Richard/Catherine are so lovely to cross paths with. If you decide to stay with them, you are sure to make your Auckland trip a special one. Thank you!
