    Really liked being close to a quieter stretch of Wellington’s waterfront and enjoyed the level walking opportunities in each direction. A short walk (or quick drive) took you to the Hataitai Shopping Village where there is a multitude of bars & eateries, along with a Four Square mini-supermarket for all your needs. The owners & staff were absolutely lovely and went out of their way to make sure me and my classic car were well looked after.

    The pods are very convenient to Khandallah shopping village. We both loved the village atmosphere in Khandallah, nice little cafes. Khandallah is very convenient to Wellington Central. However, what we really liked was that we were able to step from the pod onto several well marked walking tracks.

    Had a blast at Thorndon Heritage Listed Villa in Wellington! The hosts were super sweet, making us feel right at home. The place was spotless, and they even hooked us up with some Christmas mince tarts. The villa's got that old-school charm, and you can tell they take pride in keeping it in top shape. Highly recommend it for a chill stay in Welly! 🌟

    This was an unexpectedly delightful stop. The hosts where charming and made us feel immediately welcomed. The location was stunning and ultra convenient, notedly for being a 1 minute walk to the top of the cable car depot which delivered is to the CBD in less than 7 minutes. The villa and vista were stunning and there are lovely walks and a quaint village close by. All making this stop an highlight of our trip.

    What a fantastic location, and a lovely holiday home. The kitchen was well equipped (no microwave). Sitting out on the wee deck in the sun was fabulous and we had many interactions with the locals. Comfortable medium hardness queen bed, single beds were firm. I enjoyed being in this place and resisted leaving for all but essential trips.

    Location. Every activities we want was a walking distance. Room was big enough and I was quiet and comfortable. We spent most time visiting places on foot then bak to the hotel and vook dinner which is healthier, cheaper, and delicious. This is my first time experiencing living in the CBD and I enjoyed it after 3 days in a holiday home in Petone.

    What a lovely apartment very handy to the city! Apartment was immaculately clean and had lots of extras included like pantry supplies, plenty of milk, and plenty of linen. Heaps of space and a home away from home. Perfect for a family getaway and in our case a lovely base for a family girls weekend away in the city. Host is excellent with great communication and very accommodating in regards to last minute changes and extras being added. Thanks for a great stay and sharing your holiday home with us!
