About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The North-West Loft.

With arguably one of the Auckland CBD's most spectacular waterfront views, the prestigious and luxury North-West Loft occupies alone the prime, north-end penthouse position of Princes Wharf’s Shed 22.
Why not a "City of Sails" experience from one of NZ’s most exclusive locations?
If you have travelled far, this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom apartment with carpark, includes additional luxury comforts & amenities worth considering (see below). Wow special family or friends with a getaway to remember.
For many, in terms of an ideal location with vantage points, this is as good as it gets.
- Absolute waterfront with room to move within a spacious 135m2 over two levels
- Includes the highlight 6th floor entertaining level with open plan kitchen and a wrap-around balcony taking in both North and West aspects
- All three bedrooms on both levels view the morning sunrise on the eastern side, with views across the Wharf, Harbour through to North Head, Devonport
- All-day sun continues from the Loft's predominant northern aspect, looking across Auckland's Waitemata Harbour to the North Shore.
- Days will often conclude with gorgeous evening sunsets sinking slowly in the west, followed by the Auckland Harbour Bridge’s own amazing light displays - all enjoyed directly from your deck.
- The west-side balcony also overviews the moorings below of a number of some of the City's historical tall-masted boats (along with the America's Cup celebrations)
- Slightly out of earshot are some famous dining establishments (literally a few steps from the bottom of your lift ride from the penthouse to ground floor) your starting point to a multitude of vibrant eateries that unfold along the wider, Viaduct district.
Many guests discern the Loft's relaxed ‘resort’ vibe, momentarily forgetting that the very centre of Auckland City itself, lies just behind them.
A short walk to the next wharf along accesses Auckland’s Harbour ferry network, and beyond that, the city's central public transport hub (Britomart) commences journeys to its various suburbs, beaches, other dining districts and historical attractions.
For those wanting a relaxed stay-put experience, or to simply entertain in the city, from your vantage point the various harbour views and activities will always provide continuous entertainment in and of themselves.
The North-West Loft is the new AirBnB Auckland Central attraction, already described by its first, well-travelled guests as "truly stunning".
Guest access
Guests have full private access to the apartment - and no need to organise or rent a carpark - a secure/covered space comes complimentary to the Loft.

Definitely one of the best
This is one of the best vacation rental place that we have ever been as a family. The view itself was priceless, and the host was amazing, easy to communicate and the property was clean and immaculate with all of the amenities, a nice coffeemaker, washer/dryer, heater, but the view itself is a million dollar view. Definitely a place that we will go back again if we go back to Auckland.

Beyond amazing view and location
Beautiful, beautiful views and location. Large wrap around lanai. Tall ceilings with lots of windows and lights. Lovely, two story condo with three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Great for four women. Spacious and great location. Penthouse is spectular and we felt very comfortable and safe. Peter, the host, was wonderful, very kind and attentative to guests. Small points to be aware of but just personal taste: would have liked a small dinette set for 4 on the lania as we like to dine outside, more bathroom counter space (we are four women sharing); and prefer hard surfaces instead of carpeting in living and bedroom area. Bedrooms face interior of wharf so you may have to close windows on Friday night as we heard shouting voices (who we assumed to be late night bar patrons after bar closed) and early monring service vehicles to businesses. This is no criticism to the condo, just points to be aware of. We loved this place and would stay here again.

Amazing apartment overlooking Auckland Harbour Bridge
My family of four stayed during the Women's World Cup for soccer and it was the highlight of our trip. The owner made sure our arrival and stay were perfectly arranged. The place itself has amazing views and was clean, comfortable, and functional. Having a kitchen and laundry facilities in the unit made it feel like our Auckland home. And, of course the location was great. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to create memories of a lifetime.

If we could give it more than 5 stars we would! The loft was more than advertised! Spectacular views, great location and spotlessly clean rental. Our host, Peter went above & beyond regular hosting duties. The lift was under construction so Peter drove our luggage up five flights so we wouldn't have to carry them up stairs. Will definitely stay here again!
