We're visiting Auckland for 6 days and we stayed in Titirangi for 1 night on the way South. George's place is pretty spectacular. The views are UNREAL because it's by the water. The way up the hill was a little nerve wracking but that's only because we're American and we drive on the right side. After our first drive up, it was totally fine so don't let that deter you. The place is newly renovated so the bathrooms and deck are really fantastic. We talked to George after dinner. He went to bed and we took to the hot tub which was already set up. We just sat in awe of this place under the moonlight as we looked out into the water. Seriously, everyone needs to book this place.
We stayed in the 2 twin-bed room and it was clean and cute. Very appropriate for just a 1 night stay. They're about 5 mins away from a small town area with good food options.
My only regret is that we didn't stay longer.
