Gorgeous place, oodles of charm
We had a fabulous three days at this very charming apartment -This place is light and sunny, with a private deck and full of charm. Perfect for a family (I'm not sure the bunk beds would fit large adults). And the location is fabulous, in Devonport with its cafes and beachfront, just across the water from the hustle and bustle of Auckland CBD. Thanks so much Hubert, we hope to be back!

Our Stay With Hubert at Devonport Auckland.
We stayed in the property for 3 weeks or so. We enjoyed our stay vey much, in fact we were sad to leave. The property itself and location were perfect. just a 10 minute ferry trip and you are in the middle of the Auckland CBD. You have the beauty of Devonport itself, with all the cafes and restaurants.
Our host Hubert was most accommodating and helpful, we were very grateful. The unit itself was extremely clean and tidy upon arrival, and has all the amenities required for a very comfortable stay.
We have recommended the property to our friends, and can only say thanks so much Hubert, and Book a Bach.
Cheers Mark and Alaina Woods

Nice place to stay, including a lot of privacy. The location is perfect just a short walk from Devonport and the ferry to Auckland city. We stayed as a family and the children loved the bunkbed and enjoyed playing on the deck. Would book again.

Beautiful view with a nice deck surrounded by trees with lots of singing birds. The kitchen is well equipped. Even laundry facility. I was a single person who came to work in the navy shipyard. It was a 20 minute easy walk to work. Lovely!

The apartment is delightful.
The apartment is delightful. It has a slightly nautical theme and is beautifully finished. It has an old world charm - with modern appliances and a lovely big deck looking over an inlet from the harbour. The outdoor shower was my highlight - showering amongst Bougainvillea whilst looking out at the water is hard to beat. Hubert is a great host with a wonderfully eclectic collection of music you can play on a beautiful old mellow amplifier. For our Italian friends - this was NZ at its best
