Centre Takapuna 2 Beds & Garage & Netflix

Lovely clean appartment style accommodation, very clean and quiet. Off street parking was great. Loved the little extras, butter, honey etc thank you.

We had to chase up the lock box code, but very quick to reply thanks. There were no tea towels at the property and no hot water to start with. We found the switch.

The view and the space

Very clean. And very welcoming with lovely small touches to make it very homely - milk, butter, jam, peanut butter and complimentary water all in the fridge, ready made ice in the freezer, soaps and shampoos in the bathroom, and excellent decor and parking. We will keep online for future stays. Many thanks to our hosts

Close to town and beach

Hot water cylinder had been turned off in the cupboard so we didn’t have hot water until we worked it out.

We have mixed feedback on our stay at this property. We loved the location - on a back section (quiet) but on a through-road (very handy for getting places). There was a good TV and comfortable sofa, and a couple of chairs on the deck to enjoy the afternoon sunshine. The main bedroom was comfortable.

This is the first property we've stayed in where I we had to supply most of the toilet paper - surely the host knew that 4 people staying 6 days would need more than two rolls! There was a minimal contribution to breakfast - some butter, some jam, and a small bottle of milk, although there were good supplies of tea bags and a few Nespresso pods for the machine. The second bedroom was minimally appointed. We strongly recommend the host invests in some fitted sheets for this bed, along with a mattress protector. There wasn't enough crockery (only three bowls, only four normal glasses - but plenty of large wine glasses). The frying pan was buckled on the bottom so didn't heat evenly. This should be replaced.

The place had everything we needed and more. It was very clean and tidy but still cozy. The extras like the pantry staples and the tinfoil (just to name a couple) were so useful as we were cooking our meals there, not heading out. The beds were comfortable, and having a garage to park in was great. The host messaged beforehand with clear arrival instructions. We will definitely use this place again next time we're in Auckland.

The place is very comfortable. The host was helpful and helped us solve unexpected issues with water. The location is near the beach and a short drive into the cbd. Everything was clean and new, and we really appreciate the spreads and milk. The washer and dryer are especially handy as there was lots of rain during our stay. The only thing is there's stairs up to the house so it might be a bit inconvenient for people who have a hard time climbing stairs.

Clean and tidy, good size for our family. Great location - easy walk to beach and shops / restaurants.

Clean, practical and everything in one place

Nothing

Everything was as described!

Just one item, electric stove. It took a long time to get hot enough to cook, which made it difficult to cook.

Great location. Clean and comfortable. Good value for money

Very clean. Everything was supplied, even milk etc.

Up some stairs to first level which might be hard for some that find it hard to go up stairs.

Location Host was very kind to locate a baby cot for our baby and provide some basic food items in the fridge for us Washing machine available at the property which is always a plus for traveling families Parking spot

Tidy, but cleaning could be a bit done to a higher standard No extra towel(s) provided (missing one for infant)

Off street parking. Modern apartment with all the features needed. Light breakfast included which was welcome. Great location and walking distance to beach, shopping, restaurants and markets.

This is the perfect accommodation. Had a concert at Bruce Masons theatre and could walk. Apartment nice and clean, had everything we needed and more. The owners were awesome for communicating. Would highly recommend this property A+++

Location Layout - spacious Good coffee machine Good for two people

Ran out of laundry liquid

Great spot, easy access. The house had everything we needed to be self sufficient. Bedding was lovely, everything was provided. Appreciated the milk, butter, spreads and bread. Sorry we didn't touch bread, gluten and dairy intolerant family.

Everything! Location the place was done to a high standard , exceptionally clean I thought it was great and I will be returning.

Nothing this place is wonderful , close to the centre of town , quiet I can’t fault it !!

The property was immaculately clean and well equipped with all we needed for a comfortable stay. The little extra touches like milk and bread, spreads in the fridge were thoughtful and made us feel very welcome. The host took pride in their service which we felt

Spacious, very well equiped (even a rice cooker) and comfortable, complete with a secure garage. Great for a long or short stay, the clothes washing machine/dryer is an excellent inclusion especially given Aucklands changeable weather. The location is almost perfect, there is no view but it is a short walk to the water front and the Takapuna shops. Being on a rear section it is very quiet.

Some lighter bedding would have been better given it was not cold. Even once one of the heavy feather duvets was removed it was still too much, however that was better than not enough bedding.

Great apartment-very comfortable.

Met our expectations-a great place to stay.

Proximity, beautiful, comfortable accommodation. Offered everything & more. Such a lovely gesture with milk & bread & jams in the fridge.

Not applicable

Location was perfect, everything as described was available, clean and comfortable. 10 min walk to beach, cafes and shopping.

Nothing

Location is great, the place is very clean, everything a guest may possibly need is provided.

Parking is slightly tight, smallish bedrooms

Great communication with host, excellent location close to shops and food, and the place had everything we needed on hand. Heat pump kept the place warm in winter, and had thoughtful touches such coffee pods etc.

Pillows were a little hard for us, but there were plenty to choose from in the cupboards etc. No wash cloths, but luckily we'd bought some disposable ones.

The little touches - coffee, bread etc were appreciated! Lovely property and warm and clean.

It was a beautiful apartment with all the things we needed during our stay. There were milk, bread, butter and jam, and variety of coffees in the kitchen that were very helpful. High quality bedding. Very clean house.

Nothing! We’ll definitely book this place next time that we’re in Auckland.

Very clear instructions. Nice and modern on the inside, quite deceiving as doesn't look much from the outside. It's great to have the garage for the car. Bread and condiments provide for breakfast. The host was very responsive to messages. Would stay again when in the area..

The noise from the neighbours garage is very loud from the master bedroom as it's right above it. Woken up a couple of times on opening and closing.

The location was excellent and the whole unit was clean and tidy. It was also warm as it had all day sun. We chose it as it had a garage to put the car away at night. We would definitely stay again if we had to be in the same area again.

Convenient, clean, well set out and very comfortable

Newly refurbished, very clean and had nice quality bedding. Great value.

Lovely apartment, very well equipped. Communication was great. The owner went above and beyond to ensure we had a wonderful experience.

There wasn't anything not to like.

It was obvious from the moment that we opened the door that the owners had gone far and beyond to "please the guests". Instead of "barely what's needed" or "just enough" the hosts, even though we never met them, had added many inclusions and extras (many of which we didn't use, such as washing machine/dryer because this was at the start of our NZ adventure) and "flourishes". This was, by far, the best accommodation that we stayed in throughout our trip. And yet, had we not needed to meet up with relatives that live in Devonport, we might never have discovered this gem. We hope that you never change. Thank you.

Such great value for money. Free parking. Great location. Good size.

It was all great only thing I could say would be maybe a shower caddy.

The host was very attentive and checked up few times even before the arrival, made sure we checked in okay, all the relevant information were given to make the stay easy. The property had an interior upgrade so everything was new and still had tags on so it felt like I just moved into a brand new home. They even had a loaf of bread, jams, milk and coffee all ready for us which was a really nice touch. Highly recommend and will definitely be telling everyone and staying again.

Good location, good size facilities including a washer/dryer - very handy when you’re on a trip!!

Just the stairs were hard to get up with luggage.

It was quiet, clean, modern, the bread, milk, and jam left was awesome. The area was beautiful, so close to the beach, shops and restaurants. The owner was very informative.

Even I booked this unit in the last moment already 7pm, the manger immediately delivery fresh milk, bread and bottle of water for breakfast, they are free. I was so touched. this is the best deal during my traveled in New Zealand.

Everything is perfect. nothing to be improved. Particulary the manager, he is so nice to provide fresh supply in late evening for breakfast.

Location was good and close to sea. Facilities were good and easy to use.

we arrived earlier than expected and we tried to call the landlord to see if we could put our 6 luggages in her garage before we check in later. we could never reach her. One hour later came a cleaning lady who was rude and unprofessional. She complained about our early arrival and had her son playing in the house since she arrived while kept us waiting outside as we may interrupt her cleaning. We had to call booking.com to see how they manage such a situation and booking.com could not find the owner either and wanted to provide other accommodations for us. Actually the landlord was in China that's why the mobile was off. She then spoke to us, and again blamed us for early arrival… The cleaning lady discovered some problem with the loo and the owner said had we not arrived earlier she would have had time to repair it... Just two nights stay in Auckland, we eventually lived up with it due to too many suitcases and no car.

It was a really comfortable and clean home and just so lovely to relax in. The location was incredible and so close to the beach too. Thank you for having us😊

Very clean comfortable and we felt very relaxed The apartment has good transport links to Auckland and elsewhere. Netflix and Amazon Prime were a welcome luxury. I would stay there again.

It would have been nice to have somewhere/something to dry clothes on. There was no tin opener but I bought one and left it there

Very nice and clean. Have everything and even bread and milk in the fridge with condiments. All the equipments are very good.

Hard to find the location especially parking in

Excellent stay, doesn’t look like much from the outside but place is very nice inside. Well-stocked, has every item and appliance you could want. Combined washer/dryer great to get everything done overnight. Great bed and quality mattress for sleeping. Just short walk to Takapuna shops and beach.

Check out is at 10, 11 would be nice.

It is just a short walk to the beach. The apartment was top-notch. Loved the bed. The kitchen was a reasonable size for the apartment. It's surprisingly quiet. Really nice place to stay.

Tidy clean

No

The house was well-maintained and cleaned properly. Plenty of amenities were provided (shampoo, conditioner, body wash, towels, hair dryer). Also the host was really kind and helpful.

Everything was perfect, we had a perfect stay

Nothing

Great size for a family of four, great range of facilities, everything we needed.

N/A

We loved how homely the place was and very clean indeed. Fantastic decor and the bed and linen was great! It was made super special with extra touches of fruit, bread and spreads supplied. Kitchen was stocked with great dinner ware etc. My girls were excited to see rice cooker too!! So close to everything! We would love to stay again and recommend to all.

The neighbor outside smoking and talking very loud with a lady up to 11pm... Needed an extra couple of towels.

Well appointed kitchen. Great location to shops.

The location of the newly renovated property was really good. Situated in the heart of Takapuna , it was convenient for exploring the restaurants, shops and lake Pupuke all in walking distance. Despite its location, the apartment was surprisingly quiet, allowing for peaceful nights of rest. Amenities was thoughtfully provided. The kitchen was fully equipped. The host left some fruits, bread, jams, butter and milk which was a nice touch. Additionally, the high-speed Wi-Fi was reliable, making it easy to stay connected during the stay. Overall, this accommodation provided a fantastic home away from home during my visit to Auckland. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and convenient place to stay.

The only issue was that we were disturbed every time the neighbours opened their garage downstairs. The door is very loud.

Lovely renovated unit, located in a lovely suburb. Clean, modern, quality linen and bathroom products. Super comfortable bed. A delightful, Complimentary continental breakfast, fruit and bread kindly provided for. Walking distance to beach, cafes etc

lovely location but parking could be a problem if more than one vehicle.

It was welcoming, light and bright, clean and fresh, generously stocked and well appointed. Overall an excellent place to stay.

There was nothing we didn’t like.

Great location and Host was extremely helpful. Spotlessly clean and nice touches with milk bread and fruit supplied for breakfast.

Nothing. Will definitely use again in the future.

We stayed at this lovely place over the weekend. The owner was such a pleasure to work with and the facilities were excellent. Beds were so comfy - it really was a home away from home.

Wish we could have stayed longer.

This 2 bedroom unit is immaculate, the decore is beautiful, comfortable, fresh & clean comes with all that you need, comfy lounge suite table & chairs, tv & remote, wifi, heat pump, the list goes on, the kitchen is well equipped, jam, butter, fruit, bread & milk (even a washing machine absolute bonus) the bedding/linen is gorgeous, loved the bed the most, the linen, electric blanket, definitely that feeling of home sweet home, I would come back here to stay in a heartbeat.

There was nothing we didn't like. My only critique is the instruction book in how to operate the washing machine.

Nice cosy, sunny, comfortable, modernised two-bedroom unit, up a driveway, with short walk to Takapuna & beaches and handy to Milford too.

Auto garage door underneath was quite loud if it opened!

The host is extremely kind and could get response within a couple of minutes.

All are so good.The landlord is very nice, gave us many helps. Prepared rices cooker, fruits and noodle.Because our flight was delayed so that our check in time of this apartment was delayed also. Next time come to here ,we will book it again.👍👍👍

All are excellent

Everything was beautifully presented, absolutely spotless and our host was very attentive to any questions. Just a very short walk to the local restaurants and shops and easy access to Takapuna beach.

There wasn't anything negative about our stay.
