“Well looked after, grafiti and rubbish don't last long, bins are always emptied, fun playground and plenty of space to run”

“Great place for a walk. Peaceful, quiet n relaxing. Overlooks Maungarei/Mount Wellington”

“What a reserve. Named after princess Diana. She would have loved it if she was still alive”

“Great colours of night sky in the hood. Perfect for family walk-in-the -park”

“A very nice and easy space for us to have whanau with us for an event in one of the rooms.”

“Had our grad here and nice historical clean venue”

“Good place to keep the kids occupied for an hour. Great little tennis club next door.”

“Nice play to sit and read your book or eat your lunch. Hurstmere Green is now an environment offering open spaces for events and entertainment, and better flow between Takapuna's shopping area and the beachfront.”

“Big park. Good for playing rugby or soccer. Nice small kids playground. Theres public toilet and town centre.”

“Pretty decent community sport venue”

“House Park is the best for training, grass is sometimes tamed but still good for some circuit training or running races.”

“Very fun, around 50 minutes for 3 people”

“Have been trying to find a decent park in the area. Highly recommend this. We brought our 3 kids here for fish n chips and a play. They have outdoor exercise machines. And the playground is super fun. Also nice place to have a picnic.”

“Love this park, massive shaded area between playground (station road) and skatepark (taka street)”

“It's a funny old place, a park. I mean what do you park? A car, and it's stationary. What did I see at the park? Glorious movement. A league team training, a cricket team playing, a person taking his dog for a run on a bike. What the hell does park mean? Bloody Beaut, a sanctuary in the suburbs.”

“Great space for a run around and to kick a ball. Very well maintained. Our new favourite park!”

“Hamlin Park is really a sports field and the hall is used for Sunday worship. I live only 5 mins.away and find it is a great place to take my Lassa Appso dog for a 20 minutes run. Lots of smells and almost totally fenced.Surrounded by trees and back gardens . Excellent parking. No public toilets or playground but if you want to sit on a grassy slope in a quiet place for a little while this is for you.”

“My daughter had the best birthday! Thank you to the amazing Team and Sonja for being so kind and helpful through out the planning! What an amazing venue and best staff! We had so much fun and the room was just perfect!!”

“We've been here with our 3 kids a couple of times now and we've had a great time! The kids loved it! There is a lot of variety in the activities and the food is awesome. Highly recommend.”

“My daughter had a wonderful birthday party at MagicLoft! The food and the decorations were perfect (I just used their default decorations in the package and brought some Stitch balloons).”

“Chipmunks is awesome. The birthday rooms are light and spacious, the play areas, my daughter loved and said there was so much to do and keep them busy. The staff were lovely, the coffee was good and the food, ice creams and snacks available were great!”

“We held a close family friend's funeral reception at the Kelston Community Centre last week. The facilities were well maintained and modern, the main hall had plenty of space to sit down around rectangular-shaped trestle tables and cater for approx. 100-200 people. The female toilets were clean, well-supplied and kept tidy. There was plenty of free on-site parking. Great venue and location to celebrate special occasions and milestones.”

“Nice park, ample parking. Great for kids. Cool as playground as well as a flat area to cycle and play on. Nice walkway by the stream.”

“Definitely a must to check out if your in the heart of the city, was designed for the rugby World Cup but has since been transformed in a rec centre and exhibition centre as well. Was attacked by a tornado recently so have been sent in to do repair work will post more pics in time for update”

“We moved our Karate club to Synergy Sports Centre as we wanted to be part of the local sporting community. We offer Martial Arts classes along with the other activities at the centre such as basketball, badminton and table tennis. Jyoshinmon Shorin-Ryu Karate-do NZ is now located on the ground floor.”

“New interesting playground on a high slope. Long pipes-slides, swing-baskets with 360-degree rotation, high chain swings, other interesting entertainment and activities for children from 8 years old and older. Nice panoramic view. There is no fence, but children will not run out onto the street, because the playground is located in the depths of the park. The design really looks secure.”

“There should be a mat track around the entire ground.”

“Nice big stadium inside Selwyn College. Went with my family to the makeup and other products sale. Clean place. Heaps of parking outside. Toilets inside. Great spot for sports, markets, and school shows.”

“June 2024 A nice park in West Auckland. Well kept and includes toilet facilities too. Off street parking well marked out. Fields were currently marked out for winter sport.”
