Kiwi Hosts

"Alison and Danny were the perfect hosts, they directly welcomed us in their home and it was the best first stop arriving in New Zealand. Also they helped us a lot with finding a good van, so we're very grateful for that!"

"Good location in nice neighborhood. Alison and Danny are good people with a big heart. They helped us a lot - first day for backpackers in New Zealand might be hard. We had a good time, fun, talks and laughs. We will come back definitely."

"Alison and Danny (and all the pets) were super welcoming and make you feel easily at home. Alison gives a lot of advice and knows how to help you with your beginning of your Working Holiday Visa. It is a huge plus when you come from the other side of the world and you are a little bit lost : here she is! Animal lovers : this place is for you! You will meet lovely dogs and cats who will ask for a lot of cuddles 🐾 You will share your stay with other travellers and backpackers and you can make friends there. Théo and I highly recommend to stay in this place!"

"Absolutely nothing! I miss Beau though"

"Alison helped us a lot during our stay and made us feel very welcomed and safe. The kitchen has very good knifes (better than in any hostel) for cooking and the kitchen is overall good. We had several fun evenings in the group, playing games or eating pizza and we met very nice French guests! (Good luck on your travels Theo, Marie, Dany and Cassandra!)"

"We want to mention that this accommodation is not your usual introverted-unpersonal homestay but a place of talking, laughing and interaction. That is not a negative thing (we found that to be very positive!) but it might not be fitting everyone. And the blankets are a bit thin, but the bed and upstairs room is very comfortable."

"Thank you Alison & Danny for your hospitality and warm welcome !! We had a perfect stay at your house !! Your advices and time were highly appreciated and we are grateful you were here for all the choices we had to make for our arrival in NZ ! See you soon !"

"What an incredible stay! From the moment we stepped through Alison and Danny’s door, we felt genuinely welcome—not just as guests, but as if we were returning home. We shared countless moments of laughter, cooked and ate together, and even hosted fun gatherings. Alison was always there to lend a hand whenever needed, making everything even more special. I wholeheartedly recommend staying with Alison, Danny, and their lovely dogs and cats. It’s the kind of place you can always return to and feel completely at ease. Lots of love, Alisha & Victor"

"I couldn’t find any downsides."

"Alison & Danny were very welcoming of their guests. Alison really spends time getting to know each person giving great tips and advice on things to see/do or if you're planning on staying longer like I am on a working holiday, things you need to consider doing like your IRD, bank account, phone etc. I've stayed in touch with Alison and have gotten advice on a few more things like buying a car and what to look out for and things I should consider 😊"
