Read More...A lovely warm couple who couldn't have done more for us, however hard they might have tried ! Their Auckland apartment is really central for all activities and in walking distance of all the city attractions, plus the Motorways are very close and easy to get to. It is rather noisy at night if you don't close the big sliding doors, after the solitude of Secret Bay and 'The Boathouse' but that very difference is what makes Home Exchange so WONDERFUL - it was very warm while we were there and we still slept like 'logs' on that lovely comfortable bed ! The apartment itself was VERY well appointed and had all the 'extras' we could ever have wanted - even the use of a lovely swimming pool, not that we used it as we were too busy 'out and about'! A fabulous Exchange with truly warm and kind people - I hope that we keep in touch. John and Margriet Dickinson

Our sunny north facing apartment is located in Central Auckland and is conveniently positioned for easy access to the city (the CBD is 15 minutes walk), universities and library, theatres, movies, restaurants, the newly upgraded waterfront precinct (15 minutes walk), and Ponsonby Road with its restaurants and shops (5 - 10 minutes walk). City link buses stop right outside our building/front door. There is also motorway access close by, so it is an easy place to navigate from - either around the city or beyond (there are a variety of beaches surrounding Auckland or further afield, and 4 - 5 hours south there is skiing. The apartment itself is 159 sq meters (including the balcony), is just over 8 years old, located on the third floor, and is sunny and warm (please note that the Google Earth map on this site places the apartment on the wrong side of the building; our apartment faces College Hill, not Runnell Street). It is secure and carparking for two cars in the basement. The complex itself is very friendly, and with a lovely cafe/restaurant (Marcello's but about to be renamed as Cafe 28) on the ground floor. There is a big supermarket just a few steps down the road, and just beyond that, Victoria Park (and refurbished Victoria Park Market with restaurants and shops). We love the close proximity to the waterfront and the all round convenience.

Ympäristön kuvailu
Our central Auckland neighbourhood - Freeman's Bay - is within easy walking distance to everything you need - restaurants, entertainment, civic amenities, etc. And our apartment complex is full of some wonderful people. There is always someone to bump into at one of the many cafes in are area, or down at the waterfront.
