It's right in the city so it was a joy to step outside from the apartment and then wander the waterfront and the city. And there was plenty to see and do all around. The Wynyard Quarter with it's cafes and park, the Maritime Museum, the Auckland City Art Gallery and the lovely coastal walk around St Marys Bay to Westhaven Marina, to mention a few. A really lovely spot.

Blue Star Lodge and boutique vineyard ,near Kerikeri in the bay of islands is just a few minutes from the airport.
It’s a 30 minute flight from Auckland with numerous flights per day.
PLEASE NOTE
In JUNE and JULY 2024 we are going to france and italy and we would be open to say an exchange in mid to southern france and one in mid to northern italy , Tuscany ideally for say 2 weeks each.
We can do non simultaneous with our Bay of Islands vineyard or simultaneously with our Queenstown house for skiing or our Auckland central apartment.
.
The bay of islands is the playground of the far north , the winterless north ,with so many things to do from boating, sandy beaches, fabulous restaurants, exploring, dolphin watching and many other outdoor activities.
We have a small studio apartment in the Auckland viaduct which may be available and also a one bedroom studio townhouse at Jacks Point in Queenstown ( fantastic skiing) which also could be used.
As we own a car rental company you can have a choice of which vehicle would suit your needs , have a look at bluestarcarrentals.co.nz
