We are a family of 3. My wife's name is Wanda. She is from South Africa. We have an 11 year old son. His name is Jordan. We live in a 4 bedroom double story house in the South Auckland suburb of Takanini.
We have 1 available room to book. We have an outdoor 8 person spa pool and a small bar area in our double garage aptly called the 'SpaBa' which also features chromecast TV and a pool table. Our home has 2 bathrooms and 2 toilets. It is fully fenced. As we are travelers ourselves we enjoy meeting new people and learning about new cultures and ideas. We are very sociable and have shared our home with others, most recently a family of 4 from South Africa who recently emigrated to NZ. We have also hosted a mother and daughter from South Africa and a senior student from China. We have had a group of 27 students from a Chinese high school visit us and a tour group from India so we are quite comfortable with new people. We don't have any pets due to our work schedules but we welcome you to our home.

How do I book?

Contact the host to check their availability and ask them any questions you have about staying with them. Once the host confirms they’re available for your dates, you can complete your booking.

When do I pay?

Once a host confirms they're available, you can go ahead and pay the 15% booking fee (maximum of 250 $£€ for longer term bookings) using a choice of payment methods: Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Maestro, Laser, JCB & PayPal (not available in certain countries). You then pay your host on arrival or as stated by your host on their profile and agreed by you on booking. Please be cautious if a host requests advance payment if its not included on their profile. Our hosts have been advised that if they wish to request advance payment they must make this explicit in their profile. We do not recommend the use of Money gram or Western Union.

When can I share my contact details?

Host and Guest email address, phone number and home address will be exchanged in a confirmation email sent to both immediately after a booking is completed. It's against our policy for Guests and Hosts to exchange direct contact details via our messaging system.
