Relax in a quiet, heritage 1890's villa in the midst of cosmopolitan Auckland; just two minutes stroll to Ponsonby's vibrant cafes, restaurants, and galleries. Each of our eleven individually designed guestrooms has original Pacific or New Zealand artworks that reflect the brightness of this part of the world. In the main house are villa rooms with queen beds. The courtyard and palm garden suites are roomier and have self-catering facilities as well. An upstairs penthouse suite has expansive views. All rooms are nonsmoking, have opening windows and access to free wifi. A laptop and extensive guest library of New Zealand books, films and music is also available. We are committed to sustainability and we have two bikes for your enjoyment.
