Children's entertainment room in Auckland

“We booked an hour session with the VR Club for my son aged 10 and daughter aged 13. They loved it!!! They mostly did the job simulator. They said it was amazing and they are already talking about wanting this for their birthday parties. I had a go as well and thought it was pretty cool. The host was really helpful.”

“We loved our family outing at Escape Quest. The staff, and in particular Bradley, were welcoming and authentic, and the Escape Room had a good mix of logical and cryptic clues to keep us engaged. The right mix of challenging and do-able. I liked that the rooms were locally designed by real people, too. Thanks team!”

“Thank you so much for taking care of our baby. It really means the world to us knowing that she is loved, happy and safe in your care. We are so grateful in everything you do ❤️”

“Update: It’s been over a year and a half since my last review and we are still very happy with our Palms family. The centre just had a makeover and it looks amazing!! My daughter is so happy when it’s “Kindy Time” I hardly get a goodbye when I drop her off before she jets off to play with her friends. My daughter started with Palms Educare a week ago and the staff has really helped making the transition easier. The teachers in the baby class are amazing and caring and have so much patience. My daughter also has a medical condition and the staff has been very supportive and accommodating. So far we are very happy and will definitely recommend the centre (in fact I have already).”

“I have been really happy and impressed with Beds4u Newmarket. Kourosh was very helpful and kept me well informed throughout the process of purchasing my bed. My bed was delivered on the right day and was even carried up the stairs for me which I really appreciated. Highly recommend and thanks again!”

“Thank you for this beautiful accommodation for us. Absolutely appreciate it. The staff are amazing making it feel like our home away from home. Thank you”

“My daughter started at Small Fries when she was just 4 months old. It was so hard but all the teachers and staff made the process so smooth and effortless. In the almost 2 years of her being there she learnt so much and I will always be grateful for the care and love she received throughout her time there. It was quite bitter sweet taking her out but she is about to become a big sister and I'm sure in the future they will both be back there. Thank you Small Fries Family ❤️”

“Great place for watching teenagers scream at each other while playing Valorant. Music room very accessible, and got almost run over by people riding the tri-wheeled bikes. Very fun”

“Booked this for my daughter’s birthday. It was amazing! Kids had so much fun and staff were very friendly and accommodating! Highly recommend”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We are absolutely thrilled with Lollipop’s Albany Childcare Centre! From the moment my daughter started here, our family felt nothing but confidence and gratitude for the incredible team. The staff are warm, caring, and highly professional, always going above and beyond to make sure the children feel safe, supported, and happy. Their systems are well-organised, transparent, and family-friendly, which makes communication so easy. Every day we see how much effort goes into creating a nurturing environment filled with fun, learning, and growth.My daughter has blossomed in confidence, friendships, and skills since joining, and we couldn’t be happier. If you are looking for a trusted, high-quality childcare centre in Albany, North Shore, we cannot recommend Lollipop’s Albany enough. The staff treat every child like their own, and it truly feels like a second home for our little one. Thank you to the amazing team – you make such a positive difference in our family’s life!”

“Love my Kaylee Box Headboard Bed! The extra storage underneath the shelves is awesome. The assembly was easy too and the bed looks great in my room. Tom is also a fun guy to negotiate with and I got the bed for a reasonable price esp for the quality! Highly recommend!”

“A place which was second home for my daughter. She started in 2020 and a graduated in 2025... A long journey with the best teachers who not only understands the child but supports Parents as well. From crawling to standing and then running with lots of fun, learning, exploring and developing with trustworthy teachers, this is how our daughter's journey was. Special thanks to all the teachers Henny, Aman, Maddi, Asha, Alpana, Raheena, Ronita, Kajal, Mau, Anita and last but not least Gazelle for your continuous support. Highly recommended childcare to everyone... Thanks Swapnil and Nitika”

“Kids Cove is a amazing centre. My son has been attending the centre for a year and a half and I am grateful for the time , effort, love and care that was given to him. Especially the Storytellers team, Teacher Shuchie and her team have done an amazing job teaching my son, he comes home every day using big words like Translucent and Transparent and explaining to me what those words mean. Those are just a simple example of how much my son has thrived intellectually and emotionally at Kids Cove.”

“What a great and beautiful theatre the Civic is. It has so many spaces, and walking inside feels like being in a movie. It was also used by Peter Jackson to film King Kong, and today it hosts international shows. The place is very well kept, with respect for the time when it was built. The hall with its starry sky. The bronze. Everything always shining. Very recommended to visit.”

“A must see in Auckland,easily spent 4 hours here. Not just a war museum there are so much more than that. Free entry for working holiday,make sure bring your proof.”

“We toured several daycares before settling on Peekaboo and have been so happy with our choice! The low teacher to child ratios and small nature of the center was what drew us to Peekaboo and we haven't regretted our choice since. Our little one started at 9 months and has absolutely flourished at Peekaboo. The teachers are amazing and we were made to feel welcome and part of the family from the get go. I highly recommend them!”

“Outstanding! First time we've visited, and this is the best playground we've been to in our nearly 8 years in Auckland... even worth the trip all the way from east Auckland! We will be coming back, and I understand there are a few other similar playgrounds in west Auckland! Very impressive!”

“My 9-year-old daughter thoroughly enjoyed the Drawing & Sketching class (Tue 3:45-5:15) with Maree. Learning to depict objects with pencil sketching added a technical dimension to her artistic skills. It was a great class for a 9-year-old who loves drawing, providing more advanced content rather than simplistic children's drawings. This class is highly recommended for kids who love drawing and want to boost their skills.”

“I absolutely love this place. My child has been attending since six months old, and the love, care, and dedication shown here are truly admirable. My child has grown and learned so much, and has made so many wonderful friends along the way.”

“Volunteers were very kind. They were happy to explain history of this house.”

“Maddie was our game master. Team and I played their hardest room, Titanic. Very helpful with hints and her bubbly energy was infectious. Definitely coming back here again for more!!!”

“We went to the Billy Joel show on Saturday evening. It was absolutely superb - the quality of the musicians and singers far exceeded our expectations. The added bonus of a "supper" was a treat. This group should tour the country and beyond with this show. Great energy.”

“Very fun and versatile playground in large size. Flying fox, huge rope swing, mini trampoline, gym equips, rope climbing, sand pitch, kids water pumps and lake view etc. Always spend lots time after Costco visits - only thing is quite windy mostly”

“Come here quite regularly as the boys love it. Climbing slides, sandpit, flying fox as well as a good area to kick the ball around.”

“Great theatre. Good play and d acting. Very comfortable”

“Lovely intimate theatre. The quality of the play I saw there (Grand Horizons) was fantastic. The set design was incredible and the acting was practically professional level. The price of the ticket was very reasonable, and there is a bar that you can buy drinks and snacks from. A great night out, would highly recommend.”

“The staff at Delta Avenue Best start have extensive experience, and my child began attending in December 2023. Since then, he has achieved remarkable milestones with this institution. All the staff are highly professional and provide excellent care, supporting my child’s developmental journey. I would like to express my gratitude to the teachers, particularly Levina, Sheetal and Nazareth. A special acknowledgment goes to Mel and Michelle, who are truly exceptional individuals and consistently go above and beyond for the children.”

“My daughter start Best Start Manukau from 6 months of age and now she is turning 5 soon. I love to see my daughter looking forward to go to her preschool even on weekends. All of the staff at the centre are so loving and caring. I have seen my daughter growing up and achieving her milestones. They also do fantastic home cooked food each day , I can say there is a very family oriented atmosphere . Having experienced all 3 rooms during my daughter time there I can say with assurance the teachers are very supportive and understandable that give us more confident that our child is safe and secure. would highly recommend best start Manukau to anybody who is looking for care.”

“Had coffee here with a new friend and the community manager. Great spot bustling with community initiatives. Why not pop in for coffee or lunch when in Ranui again?”
