Maison de Rose

First positive, Robert the owner not only very welcoming accommodating and helpful (offered some ideas for dining etc), was also very COVID conscious stuck strictly to the rules which gave you a sense of well being that comes from knowing no corners were cut. We stayed in the twin room apartment, was large and fitted out for the long stay with a good kitchen own laundry facilities, large lounge come dining room. Ideal for 3 people or two couples you could be as fully self catering as you chose to be. The room had a patio with a great view down a natural forest gully and beyond where we saw Wood Pigeons and listened to Tui, a great place to sit and have your early morning coffee or evening drink. There was a pool which we didn't use, the room at gardens were a delight, Robert showed us the one bedroom apartment again ideal for two suitable for a long stay. Would not hesitate to recommend this to anyone if you are staying in Auckland it is a little out of the way but being able to sit at the end of the day with a great view, privacy and relaxing atmosphere well worth it.
