KAYAK's top tips for finding Auckland vacation rental deals

  • If you’re visiting Auckland on a sightseeing tour of the city, you’ll find several Auckland holiday rentals surrounded by main city landmarks like Old Government House and National Library of New Zealand. Quest Carlaw Park will make a good choice.
  • To find cost-effective budget holiday accommodation options, have a look at what's on offer in the Grafton neighbourhood. You’ll find some comfortable and well-appointed apartments here, and we can recommend Columbia Apartments.
