We have returned to Finland & snow (minus 10) NZ landscapes were stunning, wonderful animal encounters, Kiwi/Weka/Kea/Seals/Penguins. We like to thank you for giving us a great start for our trip we spent many nights in B&B's and yours was truly the best! |

We visited NZ in February, coming from a very cold Vancouver. Nautical Nook B&B was so welcoming in Auckland with amazing views of harbour , free sailing and terrific breakfast with menu. You helped us in countless ways, sure hope we can return to finish all the local walks. Well done Trish and Keith..what a pace you keep. |

Trish is such an amazing hostess, going above and beyond what one would normally expect in a B&B! She gives pure New Zealand charm along with delicious food and even gave me a tour of Auckland and pick up and drop-off to sail on an America's Cup boat! Her knowledge of the area, coupled with her graciousness, make this B&B a sailor girl's dream! |

I feel I really saw the true, hospitable side of N.Z. You have been an exceptional hostess. True spirit of the KIWIS. Terrific location with easy access to city by bus, and a 'dancing dog' to take for waterfront walks. |

Thank you for everything. The breakfast table groaned with food, now eat your heart out you backpackers! Chalet on the Park is the place to stay.Ill never forget cruising on the harbour --way to go. Cheers |

Great KIWI HOSPITALITY. May you have hundreds more travellers to spoil. Comfy beds, 5 star meals and even a twilight cruise to Rangitoto. We are on the last lap of a 3 year adventure and Auckland is a memorable city because of you and you lovable dog Shamus. Thanks for your generosity and spontaniety. Stay fresh and happy. |
