This is a magic location to experience. Setting out for walks in either direction, enjoying the sea, the hills, the character neighbourhoods at Owhiro Bay to the west or Island Bay to the east - this is one of many, many lovely parts of Wellington, full of surprises, and we so enjoy getting to try different parts of this fantastic city. The other great thing about the location is the cafe almost next door. Great service, menu and views. Enjoy breakfast on the deck at the front looking out to sea. The flat itself is super quirky. The listing makes it clear it is not suitable for kids, or older people - flat, easy access to the ground floor but bedroom at top of flat and bathroom on ground floor mean you need to regularly negotiate the somewhat challenging steps. We were able to park two cars right outside the door, which we appreciated. Early in the day or late in the evening, sitting out on the balcony looking across to the sea was magic. We were here in the summer so in the afternoons with the balcony and bedroom in full sunshine it was way too hot for us, but if you love the heat you would be in heaven. And at night we left the doors slightly open to cool the bedroom down, and were rewarded with the sound of the sea. John was working from home during these weeks, and appreciated having a desk in a cooler area on the mezzanine at the rear of the flat. The wifi worked well, which was also a big plus as we couldn’t get cellphone reception in the area. Good communication from the hosts.
