We stayed here, based on the location and reviews. It did not disappoint. Fiona was a friendly and welcoming host. The accommodation was clean, modern and quiet, lots of little extras in fridge and kitchen bench to get you started for the day. Had everything we needed to make an enjoyable stay. We enjoyed the walks to Howick Village approx 15mins and 5mins to Howick beach. The water views were lovely to wake up too. Highly recommend and would happily return next time we are in Auckland. Many thanks Fiona
