Thank you Lynda and Gary for the lovely stay! Lynda and Gary are really friendly and helpful hosts. They will give you advice and help you anytime you like. It felt like home and thats why I stayed 7 nights instead of the planned 4 :). The beach, supermarket and bus stop to Auckland city centre are very close (within 5 - 10 minutes). It will feel like you're at home right away and they treat you like a family member. I recommend their place highly!
