Papakohawi Twin Singles.

NoraRating, 5 stars13 months ago
Stayed a two nights in this gorgeous, peaceful and safe house. Amazing interior just like the photos. Felt right at home. Wifi was great! Janet was exceptional with any questions we had before and after the booking. Her dog was adorable, welcoming us with a hello in his language, so cute. Thank you so much for letting us stay! Home away from home, much needed! Definitely, we'll be back!

Wellington Oriental Bay

YanaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
My 15 months old Minerva and I throughly enjoyed our stay at Emily’s place for various reasons. We went down for one night trip for a mission with Miri to do some paperwork for my girl, and I tried to plan everything around the schedule / our routine which meant asking Emily for a favour to have a later check out so Minerva can have her nap. Emily gracefully offered us to stay as long as we could & accommodated our needs kindly and didn’t ask for an extra charge. So it’s a perfect spot for a small family to enjoy it - the location is central, easy to get everywhere without a car, just in front of the place there is a playground, Asian spa for relaxing next door, new world is 1 min walk away. There are heaps of cooking amenities so I was able to cook for my baby and I with ease and pleasure. The bed was comfortable and the bath tub was an extra bonus for sore tired mama muscles! Very grateful to find this cool cosy spot with nice art, features and beautiful generous host as Emily.
A panoramic cityscape offers views of distant hills and modern buildings under a partly cloudy sky. Lush greenery, including flowering trees, frames the scene, creating a contrasting natural element amidst the urban environment.

Roseneath Crown

PaulRating, 5 stars2 months ago
5/5 Stars - An Unforgettable Stay at Roseneath Crown! From the moment we arrived at Roseneath Crown, we were absolutely blown away. This stunning property is a true gem in Wellington, offering spectacular views of the city, harbor, and beyond from every single room. Waking up to such breathtaking scenery was a dream come true—it felt like we were living in a postcard! The space itself is spacious, immaculately clean, and beautifully designed, with so many thoughtful touches that made our stay extra special. From the cozy blankets to the well-stocked kitchen and by luxurious bathroom amenities, it’s clear that Sylvia, the host, has gone above and beyond to ensure her guests feel at home. Speaking of Sylvia, she was an absolute delight to communicate with—responsive, kind, and incredibly accommodating. We cannot recommend Roseneath Crown enough. This is the perfect place to stay. Thank you, Sylvia, for an unforgettable experience—we can’t wait to return! Highly recommend.

Eastbourne Waterfront Cottage

KathrynRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Kate’s cottage was the perfect location for our family while we were visiting relatives in the area. Lots of afternoons spent having a cold beverage on the front deck overlooking the water. We had two little people with us and the house was very well-suited. A great backyard with fresh produce and natures playground (the beach) only 3 steps from the front porch. We will be back.

Absolutely beautiful place: well designed, spotless, and comfortable, with a stunning view over Wellington harbor. The funicular access adds a bit of magic to the experience.

Loved our stay in a beautiful and very convenient part of the City. Sue was a great host and always kept in touch. Easy walk by or bus ride into town but the stunning views from the studio and its terrace plus accessibility to Oriental Bay means we will come back next year!

Lyall Bay - Cosy Cottage

MaryRating, 5 stars1 week ago
we have stayed here a few times, so we feel right at home in this lovely comfortable home. It has everything you need, good quality linen, towels etc. We enjoy having a coffee machine available too. It's on the bus route so is easy to get into town without having to use your car and look for parking. There are excellent cafes in walking distance and of course the beach is just down the road. We will always stay here if it's available.
