Stafford Villa is a true treasure amongst hosted villas, hidden away in leafy Birkenhead Point, just across the bridge from Auckland City or you can take a short delightful ferry ride. Chris and Mark Windram are as famous for their sumptuous breakfasts as for the stars that choose Stafford Villa over everywhere else Auckland has to offer. This grand, balconied two-story house is furnished with Chris's fascinating oriental collectibles. Fresh flowers and handmade chocolates, luxurious spa, bathroom products and delicious linens ensure guests have that international level of comfort.The two luxuriously furnished bedrooms each have an en-suite with bath. The small gothic conservatory and down double-spiral staircases leads to serene gardens on several levels, so you can always find a peaceful retreat, in sun or shade or a game of garden chess. As a haven where you are also welcome to entertain friends and guests, Stafford Villa is without peer and is a truly unique hosted villa, enthusiastically run to international standards. Chris and Mark Windram look forward to making you feel like a star, too.
