This place truly is a lovely oasis within walking distance from the beach and Takapuna, just seven miles or so north of Auckland. Two minutes walk is a coffee place. Conny is absolutely a super host! She raised the bar on good quality Airbnb's. Conny welcomed us to her home and I appreciated all the thoughtful touches- fresh fruit, fresh flowers, chocolates, teas and coffees. She identifies items with cute tags. For example, the beach towels were wrapped in string with a tag stating that they are to enjoy for the beach. The space itself is lovely- comfortable beds with foam pillows and soft sheets. She made the most amazing granola and was so kind to refill it for our second night. Only small thing is we were able hear the tenants above the space when we were trying to sleep. Overall, the experience was fantastic and I highly recommend.
