About this property

The Nest in Karori, Wellington - fully self contained and private.

The Nest is a very private fully self contained flat (kitchen, bathroom, laundry) with its own separate access and lockbox key for independent check in/check out.

Now accepting longer bookings. Currently Min. 5 days and max. 30 days (but this could be flexible). Due to the C19 situation, we will require 1 day between bookings to ensure thorough cleaning to NZ Ministry of Health guidelines.

It is partially below our family home. Located near Marsden Village, at the city end of Karori with beautiful native bush outlook. We have amazing bird life visiting the garden year round thanks to Zealandia, our local Ecosanctuary. ‘The Nest’ has everything you need for a relaxing stay in Wellington city.

*Spacious master bedroom with very comfortable king size bed and plenty of space for a single fold down bed for a 3rd person (adult or child), or baby portacot.
*Full kitchen (oven/stove/fridge/microwave)
* Newly renovated bathroom
* Dining area with table and chairs (baby highchair available)
* Laundry (washing machine/dryer and clothes line/pegs)
* Private outdoor courtyard with outdoor furniture
* WiFi, TV with Freeview/DVD and Chromebox (to stream from your own device)
* Free and easy street parking (wide street)
* Flat easy access to the front door

Only a short walk to a regular bus network for the 15min ride to the Wellington CBD, waterfront or Sky Stadium, passing by Wellington’s beautiful Botanic Gardens. Also close to Wellingtons iconic Cable Car.

The Nest is suitable for singles, couples or small families (1 child or baby) for short stays, or city workers looking for a home away from home for longer bookings.

Self check-in / check-out so you have complete privacy, knowing we can assist with any problems or issues as we’re only upstairs if you need us.

We look forward to hosting you soon.
Cheers,
Carla and Matt

Cosy little nest!

The Nest is a lovely relaxing private retreat which had all the comforts of home. It is close to Wellington's CBD and has a beautiful bush outlook. We enjoyed the peace and quiet of being tucked away in Karori while still having the village close by for the supermarket and eateries. This made our stay in Wellington easy to get around and handy to the things we needed to do. Would love to come and stay again.
