The Emerald - Takapuna Beach

The beach was beautiful and impeccably clean, perfect for relaxing with a mesmerizing sunset view. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive.Our room was clean, spacious, and had a great view of the sea. The food was also excellent

We stayed here for 2 months between houses. It was excellent. Great amenities, service, location. James and Sam were amazing. So friendly and helpful. We would highly recommend Emerald Inn to everyone looking for outstanding accommodation.

Stayed for a couple of weeks for our anniversary and was very pleased with everything. Staff were great and was very calm, quiet and peaceful exactly what we were after leaving the kids with grandma. Great location with lots of great restaurants, beaches and shops in easy walking distance. Will return.

Beautiful property in perfect location . We actually had our micro wedding here and stayed the night along with friends and family. The rooms have been so tastefully decorated, are impeccably clean and have everything you need. Home away from home with amazingly professional staff too. We only live nearly but would definitely consider coming for the odd staycation. Highly recommended!

Lovely setting room had a beautiful view. Our room wasn’t quite ready when we arrived but we had a great sunny spot to sit in and wait (not long like 5mins). Our room had a spa bath and was extremely comfortable and clean.

I was heading up to north shore hospital to see a family member. Called The Emerald and spoke to James who was delightful. It was late when i arrived, the light was on, the heater on. What an oasis. Immaculate in every way. 10 out of 10 for cleanliness.and comfort. Couldnt recommend it highly enough! A 2 minute walk to Takapuna beach and great price as well.

I stayed here in mid July and very much enjoyed my stay. In fact I needed to add another night at very short notice and was accommodated. Also I have returned for one night in August, so yes I recommend the Emerald Inn. It is a really nice setting with lots of greenery. My room(s) were clean, with plenty of space, quiet, and a good shower. Well lit and with good shutters and blinds to block light at night. Easy walk to the beach, restaurants, shops and the cinema. The only problem I had was the first stay, the wifi wasn’t very good. (That room was on the ground floor and furtherest from the reception).

Great location but that's about it. Booked a nights stay. Bathroom doesn't have a fan so windows have to be left open, not the most ideal in winter. Anyway realized the room doesn't have a heat pump either, just an old heater. Bed really soft but didn't get to spend the night due to an emergency with our daughter. Left to attend to her and went back to collect our stuff. Hubby had taken his own personal pillow, which we left behind. Tried calling them Sunday and emailed Sunday night. Over 2 weeks later no reply or acknowledgement from them just completely ignored. Service is disgusting.

We stayed here one night as a surprise weekend out of the house by my partner, and I was pleasently surprised by this little inn just at the end of Takapuna beach. The rooms were fantastic, surrounding the pool at the centre of the property, massive king sized bed we could lie sideways on, tea and coffee making facilities, and Sky TV. Our room had a huge spa bath in them, (which we made good use of!) and with it's location right next to Takapuna, if you want a nice romantic time away but still be within walking distance of a great dinner, a few drinks and a moonlit stroll down Takapuna beach, there isn't any better place than here. And for rooms for $170 a night, it's not necessarily the cheapest property around, but you pay for the location and the rooms are well worth it, plush, comfortable, fantastic.
