A safe, private and friendly haven, ideal for the truly open-minded and curious, the reflective and the fun-loving. This is not a hostel or hotel. It's a private space within a cherished home which I am happy to share with like-minded folk, who come without prejudice or unreasonable expectation, those who are prepared to engage and to leave it as they find it.

Omahanui is located in the heart of Aotearoa's largest city. Yet it is only a 30 minute drive to a plethora of forest walks, wineries and amazing beaches. The heart of Auckland city opens up a vibrant, cosmopolitan mecca for those wanting the hustle and bustle of city life. Restaurants, bars and cafes abound and I know them very well. My home on the other hand offers a sanctuary, a peek into the life of real Kiwis - frills, warts and all. It's a place to engage and laugh, relax and chat, discuss local attitudes and history, food and wine, culture and the essence of what makes us tick. By the time you leave Omahanui you will feel you have seen the authentic New Zealand rather than just the sanitised, commercial, tourist version. And it's great fun.
PS: There are plenty of excellent walking/running tracks close by for the energetic amongst us...

I am pretty relaxed about most things although I have an aversion to tobacco smoke so no cigarette smoking please. I prefer that guests do not take food or drink into their rooms. I enjoy cooking for my guests or, if you up for sharing a meal with me, I am very happy to arrange that.
