About this property

Waterfront Marina Retreat – Pool, Gym & Parking

  • Wake up to the gentle movement of boats and the shimmer of the marina at this stylish waterfront apartment in Auckland’s vibrant waterfront precinct. Positioned in the prestigious Lighter Quay complex in the heart of the Wynyard Quarter, this two-bedroom apartment places you right on the edge of the water while still being moments from the city’s best restaurants, cafés and entertainment.

    Thoughtfully designed for comfort and relaxation, the apartment features two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a secure car park and access to resort-style facilities including a heated pool, spa, sauna and gym. Whether you’re visiting Auckland for business, a city break or a waterfront getaway, this is the perfect base to enjoy everything the city has to offer.

    This inviting waterfront apartment offers a rare opportunity to experience Auckland from one of its most desirable harbourfront neighbourhoods. Located within the highly regarded Lighter Quay complex in the dynamic Wynyard Quarter precinct, the apartment sits just above the marina, where the rhythm of the harbour becomes part of daily life.

    Inside, the apartment has been thoughtfully laid out to maximise both comfort and privacy. The open-plan living and dining area creates a relaxed atmosphere for unwinding after a day exploring the city. Large windows bring in natural light and allow glimpses of the water and marina activity that make this location so special.

    The living space flows naturally toward the apartment’s lanai-style enclosed balcony – a distinctive feature that brings the waterfront environment right into the home. It’s the perfect place to sit with a coffee in the morning or enjoy a glass of wine while watching yachts glide through the marina below.

    The Space
    The apartment features two well-appointed bedrooms. The primary bedroom includes its own ensuite bathroom, providing privacy and convenience. The second bedroom is located near the main bathroom which can also function as a guest ensuite thanks to its dual-access design. This flexible layout makes the apartment ideal for couples travelling together, small families, or business travellers sharing accommodation.

    The kitchen is fully equipped for preparing meals during your stay, whether you’re cooking a quick breakfast before heading out to explore the city or enjoying a relaxed dinner at home.

    A secure underground car park is included, a rare and valuable convenience in this central waterfront location.

    Overall, the apartment offers a comfortable and welcoming space where guests can enjoy both the vibrancy of the city and the tranquillity of the harbour.

    Guests have full access to the entire apartment during their stay.

    In addition, residents and guests at Lighter Quay enjoy access to a range of excellent on-site amenities designed to enhance the experience of living by the water. These include a heated indoor lap pool, spa pool, sauna and a well-equipped gym – perfect for relaxing or staying active while travelling.

    The building is secure and well-managed, with controlled access and an on-site building manager helping maintain a safe and pleasant environment for residents and guests.

    While we will leave you in peace to enjoy your time in Auckland, we are available 24 hours a day for an emergency.

    For those non-urgent like-to-haves, just give us a call or a quick message and we will do everything we can to make this your most memorable trip to Auckland yet.

    Lighter Quay sits within the lively Wynyard Quarter, one of Auckland’s most exciting and rapidly evolving waterfront districts.

    Once a working harbour area, the precinct has been transformed into a vibrant neighbourhood filled with waterside promenades, stylish restaurants, boutique cafés and bars. A short stroll from the apartment brings you to the bustling marina, where superyachts and sailing boats create an ever-changing waterfront scene.

    Within walking distance you’ll find some of Auckland’s most popular attractions, including the retail and dining precinct of Commercial Bay, the waterfront restaurants along the Viaduct, and the performance venues of ASB Waterfront Theatre.

    The location is ideal for exploring the city on foot, whether you’re heading to the harbourfront, catching a ferry from downtown, or simply enjoying a sunset walk along the waterfront.

    The apartment’s central location makes getting around Auckland easy.

    The downtown ferry terminal and the Britomart Transport Centre are within walking distance, connecting you to trains, buses and ferries across the region.

    Many of Auckland’s key attractions are accessible on foot, including the Viaduct Harbour, Commercial Bay shopping precinct and the central business district. Taxis and rideshare services are also readily available.
