Emma Jane hat mich so liebevoll empfangen und mir bei allen mit Rat und Tat geholfen. Sie ist eine sehr herzliche und liebenswerte Person. Sie und ihre Jungs haben mir in Auckland ein schönes Zuhause gegeben. Ein großes sauberes Zimmer mit eigenem Bad. Das Haus ist perfekt gelegen nicht weit vom Flughafen und Einkaufsmöglichkeiten
Ich bin sehr glücklich Emma Jane kennen gelernt zu haben und kann sie zu 100% empfehlen. Vielen lieben Dank Emma Jane.

Priyantha's family is incredibly welcoming and accommodating. Their home, the room and private bathroom, are both clean and spacious. I would gladly return anytime!

I had the most wonderful time at Evie‘s place and couldn‘t have felt more comfortable and homey because I was welcomed so warm-heartedly. Apart from the fact that her house is absolutely beautiful, you will also feel very comfortable with her. She lets you do your own thing and at the same time she will always be down for a chat. Evie will give you the best recommendations for your stay in and around Auckland <3
Would always come back :)

Molto bene, la padrona di casa è molto gentile e disponibile, carina bilocale con i servizi ottimi e si trova in vicinanza di tutti i trasporti pubblici. Mi ha regalata anche la buona frutta che cresce nel proprio orto, quindi in somma tutto perfetto.

I had an amazing stay with Sharon and Cam :) They were incredibly kind and welcoming, their recommendations were great and helped me make the most of my trip. They were super helpful and kind when giving me items I missed or broke
The space itself was lovely the room was great, the bed was comfortable enough for all my naps and having a private bathroom was a huge plus. The backyard is absolutely beautiful, with a pool and amazing views that made the place perfect to relax in.
On top of all that, they were fun to chat with, and their adorable daughter brought such a sweet energy to the home. I’d absolutely stay here again! The only thing missing? A dog
Thank you both for a wonderful experience!

Amazing hosts, Dulani and Keshan. Benevolent, communicating and smiling. Their house and the room I lived in are comfortable, clean and spacious. We shared good times. The bus and the beach are near too. I highly recommend! :) And I hope to see my friends again.

Ich wurde von Rosemary sehr herzlich aufgenommen. Das Apartment hat alles, was ich für den Aufenthalt brauchte. Das Bett ist unglaublich bequem, so gut habe ich noch nie geschlafen.
Rosemary hatte immer ein offenes Ohr bei Fragen und half mir, wo immer ich Hilfe brauchte.
Vielen Dank, ich habe mich sehr wohlgefühlt und komme gern wieder.

Esther is a wonderful host! My stay was for six weeks and it was very pleasant I would recommend her home very very highly. I'm sure I will call upon her again someday.

Lovely stay, to be proposed to anybody looking for a great homestay accomodation in Auckland !
Awesome friendly and family loving hosts.

Sharon, Cam and Eila are just the best you can come around staying in the Auckland region.

See you again hopefully in the near future !

Emma was incredibly accommodating and went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable. She was not only helpful but also attentive, friendly, and quick to respond to any questions or requests. Her warm hospitality made us feel right at home, and we truly appreciated the extra effort she put into making our experience exceptional. Thank you again, Emma—always take care and God bless. We look forward to staying with you again in the future!

We had a very nice experience within the family. They were very attentive. We were there to help us and advise us for the rest of our trip. Thanks to them

I had a great stay with Christine in Mt. Albert in January of 2025. The accomodation is comfortable and equipped with anything you would need. Also, you can't beat the location. Five stars for sure- thanks Christine!

Great one-month stay with Brenda and Duan, a couple of New Zealanders who will welcome you with great hospitality and sympathy, trying to help you discover their country and the city of Auckland whenever they can. I highly recommend them !!

J’ai eu beaucoup de chance d’avoir Julia comme hôte. C’est une personne très gentille et bienveillante. Elle a pris le temps de me guider dans un environnement qui était nouveau pour moi, ainsi que de me faire visiter un certains nombres de quartiers d’Auckland. Sa maison est propre, chaleureuse et au calme. Mon aventure en Nouvelle Zélande ne pouvait pas mieux commencer. Merci Julia pour tout.

Pamela is a wonderful host and very kind. I stayed with her in January 2025 and had a good visit. The room is very comfortable and and Ponsonby is an excellent location! Thank you for offering this lovely homestay. -Drew

I highly recommend a stay a evie’s
As a solo traveler, I couldn’t expect a better accommodation. Evie’s a kind and generous woman, he has travelled and hosted a lot. She has good tips and enjoy sharing a cup of coffee (or a glass of wine ;) )
The house is lovely with a wonderful view on the city.
Bus or ferry are easily reachable walking to the city center.
Supermarket/coffee shops 10 min walk.
Trust me once you’re there. You may never want to leave that paradise.
Thank you Evie I truly hope we’ll meet again

Verity and Karl are very helpful. The rooms are comfortable and clean, and there is a great lounge as well as a lovely garden. If you like cooking your own food they have the perfect kitchen with all tools that you will need. The house is conveniently located, close to bus stops and not far from the city center. Staying in this house for a month was an absolute pleasure!

I had an absolutely wonderful stay with Esther! She was a perfect host, extremely friendly, welcoming, and attentive to every detail. The room was exactly what I needed, comfortable and well-equipped. I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience with home stay. Highly recommended!

Cela a été ma première expérience dans 1 homestay et je ne le regrette absolument pas.
Sharon et sa famille ont été plus que des hôtes exceptionnels. Ils m'ont traité comme 1 véritable VIP. Jamais je n'aurai pensé avoir une aussi merveilleuse expérience et grâce à eux, je vais à présent utiliser de plus en plus ce système.
Merci pour ce merveilleux accueil, tout était parfait surtout le lit 5* .
Je vous souhaite plein de bonheur car vous le meritez vraiment
A bientôt je l'espère

Julia is the most wonderful host! Not only is she kind and accomodating but she also has a beautiful house! The room is big and comfortable and the shared spaces are in top condition. The house rules were clear from the beginning and she communicates very effectively what is required of her guests. She is also a great person to talk to and share a meal with! She knows a lot about New Zealand so I couldn't have asked for a better person to stay here upon arrival in this beautiful country.

Yazmin and her family are very kind and supportive. Snoopy is adorable. I had a great stay and felt welcome. The meals were always very tasty. I would always choose to stay there again! :)

They accepted us kindly and provided a lot of experience:)
We enjoy to talk with them and wanted to stay more.
The house is cosy and comfortable, so it’s one of the recommend house.
wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable and enriching stay.

This is really a terrific Homestay. I adored my stay there.
Verity and Karl are very friendly, kind, fun and helpful. Their home is lovely.
The room and common areas are comfortable and clean.
This Homestay allowed me to have a terrific, stress free arrival and first weeks in New Zealand. I will not hesitate to stay there again if I’m back in Auckland.

Thank you again Verity!

Everything was great!
Pamela, the room, the bathroom, the kitchen, everything was great!
And I have grown to love Ponsonby!

Thanks Pamela!
See you soon!
