My mother and I were on a holiday, while mum was here in Auckland to visit her sister, i was training everyday. Gary and Ra's home have been more than welcoming and accomodating to our needs. We were constantly in and out of the house everyday so Gary and Ra always made us feel that regardless of our busy schedule to.always feel at home and just help ourselves. There are fields, parks, gyms close by if you are needing places to exercise. The place is close to the city and easy to get onto the motorway. A good walk to the Westfield St Lukes mall. The train station is literally just around the corner from the house. The home is in an ideal location if you are wanting to explore Auckland. There is a garage space there for you if you hire a car to get around. Mum and I had separate bedrooms and it was perfect. We loved our beds, our beds were so warm, comfortable, very relaxing. There is a washing machine and dryer which I used alot due to wet weather and my trainings. I hope to book here again on my next visit to Auckland. It was more than what mum and I needed and are grateful for their hosting and opening their warm home to us.
