The room was nicely appointed, large and clean. We loved the balcony. The staff were friendly and helpful. The location was great-very close to the beach and also a nice shopping area with lots of good restaurants.
This beautiful little hotel, tucked away in beautifully landscaped grounds, close to a lovely beach town, not far from downtown Auckland, is a gem.
With the beach, water and lots of restaurants nearby, definitely a place I’d love to stay at more than one night.
The pool clean and gorgeous, a refrigerator and dishes, guest laundry room, parking on site, all wonderful.
The warm welcome at the reception made us feel at home. Loved our stay!
We stayed for 2 nights and the staff was so accomadating for our time of arrival. The room was private and clean, equipped with all the amenities and so relaxing. The beach is literall just there down the road. Overall it was a great place to stay. Thanks!
Great place to stay at! Close to the Bay Area and beach. We saw kiters riding. Hopefully we will try next time too! The place is easy to find and we loved the area even more than Auckland. The place is clean and cozy. Very convenient to check in and out
Great property handy to everything. Good size two bedroom unit, clean and comfortable.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
Our two bedroom Penthouse apartment at Emerald Beach was spotless. Was filled with fabulously comfortable linens, on the beds and soft furnishings in the lounge room. Staff were incredibly friendly & helpful. We shall stay here again. Really well positioned.
The Emerald Inn is in a great location. The rooms are clean & well maintained.
Our room was too close to the road, opposite reception, so I did find it quite noisy.
