Mark and I really enjoyed our 4 nights at John's place. John literally thought of everything in regards to amenities. The space is brand new and it was spotlessly clean. It is in a tranquil setting with a nice little deck to enjoy the beautiful gardens. John and Slawa were perfect hosts. We are very happy we found this piece of paradise on the outskirts of Auckland. We had a lovely stay, enjoyed the village of Titirangi and all the hikes and beauty of the surrounding coastal area. We would definitely return and also recommend it.
