Built in 1901 and carefully updated to offer the perfect marriage of the traditional and modern, this beautiful Napier villa boasts stunning sea views thanks to its elevated Bluff Hill location. Welcome to The Verandah!
The word opulence comes to mind with this gorgeous Napier accommodation. Bright and spacious, the open-plan living, dining and kitchen space is decorated to perfection, and offers all the comforts and amenities of home.
Enjoy complimentary WiFi, a fireplace for toasty winter ambience, and a magnificent kitchen perfect for preparing meals or baking a few treats for afternoon tea. There's also a bonus kitchenette available for your use.
The abundance of picture windows and sliding glass doors offer unrivalled indoor-outdoor flow to the wrap-around verandah. Take your freshly baked scones and a cuppa outside and take in the fresh sea breeze as you look out toward the water or over the beautifully landscaped gardens.
The Verandah sleeps up to six guests across three large and tranquil bedrooms. Two full bathrooms, including an ensuite to one of the bedrooms, and a bonus guest toilet complete the brilliant set up for your stay.
When it's time to stretch the legs, explore the local Bluff Hill lookout just an eight-minute walk away; you'll be rewarded with breathtaking panoramic views of the ocean and city.
Known for its Art Deco landmarks and exquisite architecture, it's only a 10-minute drive to the Napier city centre where you can discover lovely local shops and eateries, stroll the waterfront boardwalk, take the kids to the aquarium, or indulge in a soak at the Ocean Spa.
Your dream Napier getaway is right here at The Verandah! As there is a section of the deck without a barrier with a small drop on to concrete, all guests should take care when using this area due to the risk of falls.
Please note a bond may be charged at certain times of the year. One of our team members will contact you if this is required for your booking.

Beautiful Property
Lovely stay, lovely property, just a lack of communication. Didn't get given the correct lockbox number, and no response to a request for early check in and late check out sent twice.
