We stayed here twice in March & April. We liked it. The flat is quite commodious with 2 bedrooms, a pleasant living area and functional kitchen. The washing machine & dryer are in an adjacent outside cupboard (actually good as the noise is distant). There is a glass sunroom/dining area off the living room with magical views to the beach/sea. The apartment has a ‘nice’ feel. It is 10 metres from the beach, 5 minutes from the nearest bus stop and 10 minutes to Milford shopping centre/high street. You can walk to Takapuna in 25/30 minutes. Milford and Takapuna are, it appears, amongst the more affluent areas of north Auckland with an abundance of eateries and cafes. The apartment is the middle downstairs one in a block of 6 and as you approach it, down a sort of long drive/path off Craig Rd, you’ll probably be underwhelmed - don’t worry it’s better on the inside and the views at ‘the back’ to the beach/sea will enable you to quickly forget the ‘front’ where you look out on the parking spaces. Also, there is a flat above this and the plumbing can be noisy. There is mention in other comments about ants; there are ant nests outside but there is no infestation inside and the obvious advice is not to leave food out anywhere or they will come in for it. But, these were minor things and we really enjoyed our 5 weeks there - how could you not? Wake up, breakfast, walk barefoot along a stunning beach, swim, generally chill and then take off and see stuff.

We stayed for 17 to be close to family. Then we toured the South Pacific. In return we will stay here again. So, obviously we liked it.

We had a really nice stay! Really fun to just walk out the door to the beach. Had some issues with check-in and communication but I think those were due to my phone/internet service rather than the owner - when we were able to reach her it was easy-peasy.

There's nothing quite like being able to wake up in the morning and watch the waves breaking on the shoreline with your first cup of coffee for the day. enjoyable stay, beach walks- super shopping restaurants and cafes/bars on your doorstep.

When we arrived at the property we saw that much of the furniture was old and battered. We also discovered ants in several rooms and in the cutlery drawer. We asked to have it sprayed. She arrived in the morning, and sprayed for ants. Two days later when the ants got worse, she claimed that we didn't have ants and did nothing further to remedy the ant problems. So we took pictures.. . Also, before we made our final payment, we pointed out that we were being overcharged by $1020.00. She agreed but said it was a VRBO error. She said to pay it to VRBO who would refund it. Her story then changed and she said VRBO would refund us when we took possession of the Apt. She next said to check our account to see if VRBO refunded us. Then she said that she was waiting to receive payment from VRBO and that she'd then refund us directly by sending the $1020.00 to our account. We sent our account info and she said she would not send money to our home in the United States so we should find someone with an account in New Zealand for her to send the funds to. We did so and finally received the funds. . . Then, New Zealand had its biggest cyclone in 100 years and the government said to evacuate beach areas. We did so and came back after 3 days. We came back to even more ants. We couldn't stand the ants and finally moved out early and asked for a refund for the 3 days of cyclone and 4 days for early departure due to ants. She refused to refund us saying the policy was NO REFUNDS.
