    Really liked being close to a quieter stretch of Wellington’s waterfront and enjoyed the level walking opportunities in each direction. A short walk (or quick drive) took you to the Hataitai Shopping Village where there is a multitude of bars & eateries, along with a Four Square mini-supermarket for all your needs. The owners & staff were absolutely lovely and went out of their way to make sure me and my classic car were well looked after.

    Had a blast at Thorndon Heritage Listed Villa in Wellington! The hosts were super sweet, making us feel right at home. The place was spotless, and they even hooked us up with some Christmas mince tarts. The villa's got that old-school charm, and you can tell they take pride in keeping it in top shape. Highly recommend it for a chill stay in Welly! 🌟

    This bed was the most comfortable that I slept in during my 3 month trip. Owners are lovely people and the home is beautiful. The view from the kitchen and dining room is spectacular! A flock of kakas came to visit the first day I was there. Great location: walking distance to cable car, Space Place, restaurant and little village.

    This really is the most tastefully decorated villa! The location is magic with the city and its attractions right on your doorstep. I can not speak too highly of the host!! Nothing is too much trouble inc making a cardboard carry-all to make it easier for me to carry a framed painting. I will definitely be using this place as my "go to" accommodation any time I am back in Wellington. The facilities are also excellent. Thank you for such a special weekend.

    Staff very helpful and friendly. We were originally booked in to Willis Village, but due to an issue that we were not told about, we were transferred to Boulcott suites. Excellent Town House with plenty of room for our young family. Beds were comfortable and amenities were clean and the whole place was well stocked and had everything we might need, from a washing machine and dryer to hair dryer and kitchen tools.

    What a fantastic location, and a lovely holiday home. The kitchen was well equipped (no microwave). Sitting out on the wee deck in the sun was fabulous and we had many interactions with the locals. Comfortable medium hardness queen bed, single beds were firm. I enjoyed being in this place and resisted leaving for all but essential trips.
