Experience the real New Zealand! Vist our Victorian Villa hidden in a quiet and tranquil corner on Auckland's North Shore in the maritime suburb of Birkenhead Point. Our family are fifth generation New Zealanders, our passion is for the sense of history our New Zealand heritage home offers and to show our guests a glimpse into the life of our forefathers who immigrated to New Zealand in the 1880’s as shipping owners.

Stafford Villa has a reputation for elegance, comfort, style, service and attention to detail, providing a memorable and relaxing stay in a convenient yet peaceful location. Stafford Villa is close to the water, ten minutes by passenger ferry or a short car ride from the downtown Auckland and surrounded by tropical trees, with native flora and active bird life, away from traffic noise but close to everything you could need - leisurely walks, antique shopping and award-winning restaurants.

Our setting is peaceful and secluded, its intimate size offers you the chance to have it all to yourselves or share with one other couple. We organise your special occasions, romantic escapes, honeymoons, weddings, private gatherings or just a night away from your busy lifestyle our Traditional Victorian High Teas are all about Elegance and Etiquette and are perfect for birthdays and celebrations or why not join us on Sunday afternoons during October and March and experience a time gone by.

We are seasoned world travellers ourselves, and we welcome you to our home and the beautiful harbour city of Auckland.
