Stephen·4·Mar. 2026· "A comfortable and very clean place to stay. I was unfortunate to suffer a bad head cold for a few days on arrival so I wasn't able to interact with the host as much I would have liked to. Troy is a very nice guy, quiet and easy company."

Koromiko Homestay - Skyroom (Double)
Wi-Fi • Breakfast included • Hot tub
Avery·5·Feb. 2026· "Koromiko was a home away from home. Upon first arrival, I was immediately fascinated by how tucked away a large house could be, it's far enough from the city to make you feel like you're in the rainforest and close enough to make you feel like a local. The neon rainbow sign was the first piece of evidence that Koromiko would be my new sanctuary for the next 10 days - I feel like I discovered a whole new version of myself here. Thank you to the people who made it feel like home. There aren't enough words to describe it."

Kerry is just great, super nice, easy to talk to and very knowledgeable about New Zealand and Auckland in particular, especially with regards to restaurants and city walks. Would definitely stay again when in Auckland."
