I really enjoyed my stay at the beautiful flamingo house! Simon and his family are so kind and welcoming! They’re always there for whatever you need, but will also give you all the privacy you want. The space is perfect for 2 people and includes absolutely everything you need. The bed is also so comfortable!!! I really enjoyed the pool, spa, and beautiful garden with delicious vegetables. And the location is so convenient! As a tourist, it was super easy to walk to the main road and take buses to anywhere in Auckland. But it’s also so nice to have Point Chev beach so close by. My absolute most favourite part was their sweet dog Mishka! But if you’re not a huge fan of dogs, she will completely leave you alone if you tell her to. I couldn’t recommend this place more. Thank you Simon!
