Throughout our travels in New Zealand we stay in a wide variety of properties – it’s important to see through the eyes of our customers. We’ve quickly discovered that although apartment accommodation New Zealand can provide spectacular views and a central location, the odd compromise may be required.
Views & location for Apartment Accommodation New Zealand:
New Zealand apartments often come with million dollar views, like this one we stayed in a few weeks ago. Waking up to a spectacular harbour view and being treated to a jewel studded sea, is such a luxury for many travellers. This one was well away from the main road, however it had an extremely steep road leading up to the apartment. Issues regarding convenient access should be considered.
Internet Connection:
Generally, New Zealand has very good internet connection and if you’re on holiday you may not consider this a priority. But some of us have constant business responsibilities, even on the road. If internet speed is a priority, check this before you book. Refer to previous blog .
Currently, we’re staying in an individually owned apartment with great harbour views and beautiful interiors – real artwork on the walls and floating shelves with carefully chosen ceramics. The towels are thick and the bed linen is pure quality. It’s a clean and welcoming environment prepared with love by the owners – an ideal living space for longer stays, especially for families!
Inconsiderate neighbours:
For the first few days of our stay here, we faced a challenge with the neighbours next door and they really were from hell! Their constant door slamming shook the apartment and frayed our nerves. Ignoring basic etiquette, they held loud drunken conversations on the balcony and their language was foul…glad we didn’t have kids with us! On the day they left, we gratefully held the lift doors open for them. Bliss now reigns.
Central Location:
New Zealand apartment accommodation is a great option for exploring large towns and cities. Being within walking distance to cafes, restaurants and local attractions is a big plus, especially if you’re missing your exercise regime.
Ok folks, let’s kick back and watch the Sunday yacht race.
