Emerald Inn on Takapuna Beach

旁邊就是海灘，周圍吃喝很方便！

We paid $350 per night and for that price, we were expecting there to be air-conditioning. The decor was a bit dated and it felt like they scrimped wherever possible eg toiletries, toilet paper. On the plus side, it was in an amazing area - right next to the beautiful beach and walking distance to a vibrant town with multiple wonderful restaurants/shops.

Lovely location and our stay was really enjoyable. The only negative was the fan was on which was noisy and we were unable to turn it off. The cleaners told us it could only be turned off from the downstairs unit (we were in the upstairs unit) which seemed a bit strange. It led to the unit beside us complaining about the fan noise but it was out of our control.

Lovely quiet surroundings, comfy beds and clean spacious 2 bedroom but lacking in the little details. This place could be so much more inviting had there been better complementaries especially for the high price charged. Tea and coffee was a very limited basic selection thrown into a bowl and bathroom amenities the same.

This place is enchanting - a little oasis a block from downtown Takapuna! The complex is focused round the pool and lush gardens. When we visited it was hot and sultry on the shore, adding to a delightful and beguiling vibe of being in Asia. We had the spa bath room. First floor, rear of the complex over looking the pool and gardens. It was a quiet weekend -in town and at the inn-so nothing to disturb us. Room was completely fit for purpose. Spacious, clean and cleverly refurnished and finished to add that tropical location vibe! I LOVED the palm cushions and jungle quilt! Comfy bed, crisp sheets. All windows open, a very small balcony and thank heavens for the fan! The bathroom was new and the spa bath- filled with cool water- was a good size and a nice touch. There’s a basic kitchenette with fridge, microwave and adequate crockery and utensils etc. There’s no obvious recycling and all products are single use. Staff were friendly and efficient. Lovely place and experience, that I’d recommend and will stay again.

We were welcomed by the manager and her assistant almost as if we were friends. By walking only 100 meters we had an amazing view of Rang-it-to-to Island and a beautiful beach lined with Po-hu-to-ka-wa trees.

Great spot, clean and spacious, the 2 bedroom suite was great for us, location was exactly what we wanted with beach and shops/restaurant access, easy access to North Shore and to City. Nothing fancy but just what we needed.

A lovely property on the North Shore just a stroll from the water, shops, pubs and cafes and just a 10 minute drive (outside of peak times) to the city. The owners set a high standard and the rooms whilst not 5 star have that homely feel about them. Do expect fresh towels every day, great water pressure in the shower and the convenience of a small kitchenette. Do not expect stable wi fi (a frustration for those on business) or having your bed made (stayed 7 nights and bed was not a part of the housekeeping service it seems). I would absolutely stay here again as the location primarily out ranks most for me 😊

Great location and within easy reach of beach and bars etc, lovely complex and friendly staff, would definitely stay again and recommend
