About this property

Super lux Garden Flat - Grey Lynn

Beautiful, warm double-glazed flat in Grey Lynn - 10 mins walk to Ponsonby and Kingsland, and 30 mins to Auckland City. Two queen bedrooms and spacious lounge with large walk-in 'rainforest' Shower'. "Better than the photos" is our most common feedback. Smart TV (Netflix, Sky etc.) and kitchenette provides sink, fridge, Microwave oven, a multi-use electric cook pot, kettle and toaster and a barbq on the deck. Off-street Car Pad and additional Parking easy on the street for a second car, with buses 5 mins away. A ten minute walk from the nightlife of Ponsonby and K Road and you can walk to the CBD in 25-30 mins or scooter in 10.

Entrance to the flat is through a separate entrance on the side of the house. You have privacy in the flat and a unique code to enter on the key pad during your stay.

Grey Lynn is a really great location with dozens of restaurants a short walk away; close to the city but away from the noise with few passers by. You can walk on the special bike/walking track close to the house, to the city and Museum in 30 minutes, or all the way to the water front in not much more if you enjoy walking. Or by Uber or scooter, ten minutes takes you most places.

Please note there is an additional fee for 3rd and 4th guests. The rate quoted applies for 1 or 2 people. Please ask if you'd like to bring a dog. We charge $60 for the additional cleaning and ask you keep him/her off the sofas and are careful to wipe all feet! BABY PACKAGE: We can provide a Travel Cot with sheets and blankets, high chair and baby bath for $50 per stay.
NB: If you have a long-haul flight, please understand we are often fully booked and can't change the check-in time of 2 pm or check-out time of 11 am - so consider booking for the extra day so you can relax in the house after an early arrival or late departure. Alternatively, there are Spas for a Massage and plenty of bars close by :)

Wonderful stay
We had a wonderful stay up in Auckland. My mum and I were up for a work trip, so we were working very long days. We felt so lucky to be able to come home to such a clean, comfortable flat. Paula was so lovely she even prepared us a snack board for our arrival! We hope to stay there again next year. Thank you so much Paula for making our stay so nice.

Easter Weekend
We brought our little dog with us and the outdoor area was perfect for her. Completely fenced with direct access from our Bach. Beautiful Bach and the bathroom was amazing. Paula also left a couple of welcome platters in the fridge for us and they were delicious. Thanks for everything. We will definitely stay again.

Lovely apartment
This was a lovely apartment close to the heart of Aucklands Ponsonby and Grey Lynn districts and perfect for our purposes. We were warmly welcomed by the hosts and had lovely snacks and breakfast foods for the first day. It was fresh and stylish. It does not have a stovetop or oven though there is a barbecue. We felt very well treated and enjoyed our stay very much.

Lovely location, peaceful and clean, one of the beds is very hard, but we still got great rest. Was locked out one day due to locks being timed out, but thankfully owners are onsite and were able to sort and let us in right away. We were thankful for a great stay

Nicely appointed space
Host was very helpful prior to arrival and after. The accommodations are well appointed, however we were asked to cook outside as the area the host has set up for cooking does not have ventilation. Not an issue for us with the weather but worth knowing if you visit during the rainy season. The host lives upstairs and is quite engaged which is great if you want a lot of correspondence but some may find different than the usual experience. They have laundry which was great but host frequently using for other properties they owned and this sometimes limited our ability to use the facilities even though they are listed as an amenity. Even though the property is located near a major motorway it was very quiet and this should not deter booking. There is good access to transit and parks nearby and parking was also available.

Great place!
Bright, spacious flat convenient to Auckland sights-zoo, museum and downtown. This was well appointed with comfortable beds. Easy access to walking tracts, walk to multiple tasty restaurants and superettes. The hosts were welcoming and left a delicious platter of fruit and cheese. The hosts were responsive and available as a resource or privacy. Negotiating luggage in and out of flat was a bit of a challenge going up/down steps but hosts assisted with that. Would highly recommend and would stay again.

Best air b and b ever!
We loved staying at this property. It was superbly comfortable, spacious, modern and well equipped. Paula and Peter the hosts were friendly and responsive and available for any enquiries. There were nibbles on arrival. The local heritage area was attractive and the local walks interesting. We travelled with our small dog and appreciated the fully fenced adjacent garden area where she could wander safely. We will be back :)
