Those who like privacy will enjoy it here.
As a member of our quiet community, we invite you to have fun and enjoy your stay, but kindly ask that you respect our neighbors by keeping noise levels low. Please note that this is NOT a party house. You`ll have views of the stream that runs beside the property and hear it in the background as well. We are very well located to anything you`d want to do in Whangarei. It is the perfect base if you are here supporting visiting sports teams, as it is an easy 5 minute stroll to Kensington Park. Also a short walk to the beautiful Sub Tropical Quarry Gardens and Quail Cafe
It would suit 2 couples or a family, however if it`s just you, you`ll be just as happy.
Your best option for transport here is to have your own car or hire one. There`s some nice cafe`s and Kensington Sports Park within easy walking distance. But if you`d like to explore the area further a vehicle would be ideal.
Other things to note:
LAUNDRY: We also have a small cabin available to rent at the rear of the property. While the cabin and your space are entirely separate and private, guests may occupy it during your stay. The washing machine is located in the cabin’s kitchen area and is available when that space is unoccupied - otherwise, we recommend the nearby laundromat for your laundry needs.
- This is a peaceful neighbourhood. Please be respectful of noise.
- Please no shoes in the house.

10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Aug 2025
Loved our stay here! Very clean and well maintained! Even with 5 adults, we never felt cramped or on top of each other. Set in a beautiful, quiet area. As we were from out of the country, we really appreciated that there was a device set up for USB charging. Hosts always answered questions quickly. An ideal place to stay if you're staying in the area!

Great communication, place was very clean and tidy and had everything I needed. Was very close to my course, so location was perfect.
6.0 / 10.0Average·Jul 2022
I only book stand-alone properties- whole house, unshared. This was attached with shared walls to a unit next door, one downstairs and a cabin in the back. Photos are very edited and manipulated. Homeowner next door begins VERY loud yard work with banging metals and pressure washing early in the morning on weekends. Broken fixtures and trouble with mold and bugs. Nice folks, but I don’t recommend it and I would not return. I wish them the best and hope they can make the improvements required to bring the space up to par. It could be a nice stay for a family. but not a working professional. The pricing and adverts should reflect that this is not a standalone house. This is a duplex with 2nd rental in basement and 3rd cabin in back of residential neighborhood.
