Waterfront Harbour & City Views 2 Bedroom Ensuite

A beautifully appointed two-bedroom, two-ensuite apartment in the celebrated Lighter Quay Stratis building — directly waterfront facing, with harbour and city views from a private balcony, queen master with ensuite, twin second bedroom (convertible to king on advance request) with ensuite, fully equipped kitchen with dishwasher, dedicated workspace, and full access to the building`s heated pool, spa, sauna, and gym. Free secure parking. Consistently well-loved. North Wharf a short walk.

The view from this apartment has been mentioned by guests more times than any other feature — and from the private balcony of a waterfront-facing Lighter Quay Stratis apartment, looking out across the harbour and the Auckland city skyline, it is entirely easy to understand why. This is not a glimpse between buildings or a rooftop outlook across a car park. The water is directly in front of you. The city skyline spreads to one side. And it is there every morning when you wake up and every evening when you come back.

Both bedrooms have their own private ensuite bathrooms — a configuration that is genuinely uncommon in the Auckland short-stay market at this price point, and one of the apartment`s most practically valuable features. The queen master bedroom has a beautifully appointed ensuite and looks out towards the harbour. The second bedroom has two single beds that can be configured as a king on advance request, with its own equally well-appointed ensuite. Two couples or a family of four each get their own space and their own bathroom, without sharing.

The open-plan kitchen, living, and dining area is bright, comfortable, and well-proportioned — direct balcony access from the living area means the harbour view is part of the room rather than something you have to step outside to see. The kitchen is fully equipped: stovetop, dishwasher, microwave, fridge/freezer, and all the essentials for relaxed self-catering. Air conditioning and Smart TV complete a well-appointed interior. In-unit laundry adds convenience for longer stays.

The building`s shared facilities — a heated indoor pool, spa, sauna, and fully equipped gym — are available exclusively to Lighter Quay Stratis residents and their guests. Free secure parking is included beneath the building.

er Quay Stratis is one of the most sought-after addresses on the Auckland waterfront — a prestige residential building positioned directly on the Lighter Quay waterway at the western edge of Wynyard Quarter. The building is fully gated and secure, with lift access to all residential floors and a quality of shared spaces that reflects the premium character of the development. The heated pool, spa, sauna, and gym are reserved exclusively for residents and their guests — not shared with the public. Free secure parking beneath the building is a rare inclusion at a waterfront address.

The entire apartment is yours — both bedrooms with private ensuites, kitchen, open-plan living and dining area, dedicated workspace, private balcony with harbour and city views, and one free secure car park. Full access to the building`s heated pool, spa, sauna, and gym is included throughout your stay.

Check-in is from 3:00 PM. Key collection is from Wynyard Mart on Halsey Street — a 24-hour convenience store a couple of minutes` walk from the complex. Present your booking confirmation to the attendant and they will hand you the key. Full details will be confirmed the day before your arrival. Early check-in can often be accommodated subject to availability — please enquire at booking.

Wynyard Mart is open 24 hours, which means early arrivals and late-night check-ins are equally straightforward — no need to coordinate around office hours. If you are arriving by taxi or rideshare, it is worth asking your driver to wait while you collect the key, as it is a very quick stop and the walk to the apartment with luggage is easier with a drop-off close to the door.

Lighter Quay Stratis sits at the edge of Wynyard Quarter — one of the most successful urban waterfront regenerations in the Southern Hemisphere. The North Wharf dining precinct is right on your doorstep: Baduzzi for handmade pasta and Italian small plates, Hello Beasty for bold Asian-inspired sharing plates, Giraffe for waterfront dining, and a wonderful selection of bars and wine rooms. Silo Park, with its outdoor cinema, weekend markets, and public art, is a short stroll, as is the Auckland Fish Market.

On Saturday mornings the Wynyard Quarter Farmers Market sets up along the waterfront — freshly shucked oysters, artisan bread, and serious coffee. The Viaduct Harbour`s celebrated restaurant and bar strip is an easy walk east, connecting through to Commercial Bay and Britomart`s cobblestoned laneways. The Auckland Ferry Terminal is nearby for Waiheke Island, Devonport, and Hauraki Gulf services. The CBD`s Queen Street, Sky Tower, and Aotea Centre are all within comfortable walking distance.

Auckland is easily explored from Lighter Quay Stratis. The Inner Link and Outer Link buses connect the central suburbs frequently. Britomart Transport Centre is an easy walk with full train network connections. The Auckland Ferry Terminal is nearby for Waiheke Island and harbour services. Free secure parking is included for guests arriving by car. Auckland Airport is approximately 30 to 40 minutes by car.
