Lisa's apartment was in the perfect location for a 2.5 day start to our New Zealand vacation. The view is great and since it was summer, we could enjoy very long days from the living room and balcony. The apartment is smaller than it looks in the photographs but since it was just my husband and I (and we spent most of the day outside anyway) it was fine. If you have small kids, note that space may be a concern for your stroller, etc.

The building is huge and has all amenities including security, which we appreciated. The New World supermarket which is a 10 min stroll away is fabulous and we stocked up on fruits and eggs for our breakfast from there.
