Absolute Waterfront Oriental Bay
Perfect for the weekend, cosy and peaceful, great views, walkable and easy access to the city and waterfront. Great hosts, responsive and provided flexibility with my requests. Thank you 😊

Oriental Bay At Its' Best
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. Lovely, simple breakfast left for us. The location is perfect—a short walk from Wellington’s central business district. Loved our stay here.

Modern & Comfy Furnished Apartment
Scott was an amazing host. He let us check in early and even offered flexibility with our dates. The place was cozy and had everything we needed!

Peaceful Panoramic Sea Views
Tina's place was great. Me and my boys enjoyed it so much and felt literally like home + nothing can beat the coffee machine !!!

The Grove
Bronwyn was very friendly and easy to communicate with. A short 15 minute walk to the beach. The apartment was a comfortable spot to rest while visiting Wellington.

Central, Sunny & Spacious
Great place, had everything we needed and really convenient for walking to local activities.

The Penthouse on Evans Bay
Didn’t take any photos of the place, however the view was stunning! The house was very clean, the beds were super comfy and so were the pillows. It was a great big space! On Rainy days I did wish there was roof cover for the balcony… also for those who can’t do stairs. There was a few flights to climb! But well worth the trip. Amazing host, milk, coffee and a wine on arrival! Greta cafe right under the apartment was fair priced, delicious and great customer service! Thank you Giles & Zoe

Light, Modern + Close to Everything
Nice, clean and quiet place with all the features one needs. Bus stop to the central city is a few steps away. Very quiet at night. Highly recommend!

Octopus’s Garden 3bd2bth House
We had a wonderful weekend with family, staying at Julie’s house. There were 3 good sized bedrooms, 2 with great views. Everything was really clean and spacious, the kitchen was well equipped, and we had lots of instructions. Julie communicated well before our check in. Parking directly opposite was a bonus. For anyone with mobility issues, just be aware that there are steps up to the entrance, and living / sleeping is on 2 floors.

Double Beach Surf & Family Haven
Such a beautiful, bright space! Absolutely loved it and super close to town. Driveway is a little awkward if you have a van but manageable.

Modern in Wellington - Sea Views
We had a great stay here. The house is lovely and has great views over the water. We had our own car and access to all parts of Wellington was easy. We’re quite a bit fitter for the walk up the stairs each day, but the cable car access is great also.

Space, amazing sea views, 3 beds & great ambiance
A lovely home with wonderful views and very cosy. Comfortable beds and excellent kitchen. Highly recommended!

Amazing. Big house. Huge garage. No cleaning fees
Our Accomodation comfortably fitted my family of 4 Adults. Would recommend to travellers of all ages

Seaside Retreat – Stargazing & Pet Owner’s Haven
Great place for a family weekend in Wellington. Cool location with great views of the South coast. Good location for things in Miramar peninsular or Kilbirnie/Lyell Bay area

Seatoun Village
Sharyn was helpful and friendly but also allowed me my privacy. She warmed the room for me prior to my arrival and was extremely flexible and helpful. The room suited my needs for the weekend and fridge was thoughtfully stocked with beverages. Enjoyed the outdoor covered seating area as well.

Beach Haven on Lyall Bay Parade
Great space great views Central and comfortable.

Room in bright, clean city apartment with views
Sam's apartment is small but has everything you need. It's in a great location, very walkable to Lambton Quay and on to Cuba St. You can always catch a bus back and take the lift up through the James Cook Hotel if you're too tired to walk home. I had a bit of trouble checking in as Sam was away and the last guest had not put the key back in the lock box. However, Sam was responsive and had an immediate solution. I was in the double room, which was very comfortable. You might want earplugs to keep out the noise of the motorway. I would happily stay here again.

Harbour view two bedroom apartment at pinnacle
Perfect apartment to stay at in Wellington. Everything was as per the booking description etc.

Harbour views 2bdrm apartment with deck
This was a simply marvellous spot to stay! Fantastic location in a very secure location. I could easily walk to the grocery store, the waterfront, Te Papa museum and many other attractions. The apartment was spotless and equipped with everything I could imagine needing Llane was very responsive to questions and proactive with notices. I wish she owned a spot in every place on my bucket list!

Oriental Bay: stunning views from a private condo
This apartment was amazing & met my expectations & more The views were incredible Easy beautiful walk along the waterfront to restaurants & bars but if you choose to Uber then it was only $9 Easy self check in with lockbox We managed to get a free Carpark outside the apartment block so no problems there . Thank you Craig , hopefully we will be back soon

Central Wellington Apartment in Dream Location
The best deal for being comfortable and not cramped right in the heart of the city. The views both to the harbour and Mount Victoria are just beautiful and the perfect tonic sitting in the comfy lounger at the end of the day. Super easy instructions and both Carolyn and Aarti quick to respond to any queries. Also an extra layer of glazing in the master bedroom to keep out the city noises during the night. Friendly neighbours in the building make it a very safe space too. I would gladly return!

No: 10 in Mt Vic
Perfectly located, walking distance to Mount Victoria, the water front, Te Papa museum and city center. Bus straight from the airport (if you're flying like me) will leave you just 5 min away from Donna's house. House/apartment located in a little alley way so private and quiet enough. Comfortable (amazing bed) and cozy space. Donna is very friendly as well as discreet, she's available if you need anything but the ground floor is pretty much to yourself and will feel like you have your own space. I highly recommend 🙂.
