My family of 4 stayed for 3 nights and had a lovely time. The Air BnB sign by the garage made it easy to confirm we were in the proper place when the Uber dropped us from the airport.
There is no television, so if you can’t be without, this might not be the place for you. But if you love looking at the ocean or at airplanes coming and going across the bay, then this is the place for you. We had a delightful time just watching nature and taking bets on which planes might abort landing due to the wind.
We had dinner in one night and had no troubles. The oven can be a touch tricky to figure out, but once you do, it works brilliantly.
Throughout the house the water pressure was strong, and the show is tall (something that matters in our family).
If you leave the house and go right, there is a path down the hill that is a lovely walk through trees and flowers. Brian had recommended a restaurant by the bay for breakfast so we all walked down. The walk is steep, but the surf cafe is worth the walk.
We used Uber to get in to town until we picked up the rental car. It was about a 5 minute wait for the car to arrive and trips were about 20NZD each way. With four of us traveling that was a great deal.
I will definitely be in contact if I return to Wellington. I found the neighborhood quite and scenic. It was easy to get to the city, but you had none of the noise and hustle. Thanks Brian, I will certainly reach out if I get to return to Wellington.
