Needs a clean

Room was very light and airy and bed was clean and comfy but the bathroom floor was dirty and very dated. The living area curtains were sitting on the floor and were covered in mildew. The sofa was comfortable on one side and rock hard on the other. The restaurant food was nice but the menu was very small.

10/10 Exceptional

Sweet golf resort 40 minutes from Central Auckland. Andy and his staff are great, the villas have nice views of the water, restaurant chef and food are top tier, and the golf course is challenging, but a lot of fun.

Loved the property. Extremely spacious and clean with a huge bathroom. Perfect for a getaway outside of Auckland

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful location in a quieter area of Auckland that is perfect for those that want to take a pause. Rooms and resort looks to be having ongoing refreshments and upgrades. Lovely spot and can't wait to visit again in the future

Was a little bit disappointed with the breakfast. The fruit choices was just an apple. I expected seasonal fruit sliced up.
Lyndel, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

We initially encountered a hiccup because the door of our room was jammed and we couldn’t get in. Eventually we were offered a new room and we were upgraded to a different room. Although the new room was clean, there were some cellar spiders around the room. Wasn’t a big deal for us - just thought that they weren’t expecting for that room to be used so it wasn’t really cleaned thoroughly. Overall, great experience. Love that it’s very tranquil. Will come back in the future.
Abigail Lois, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Booked a room for four people but only towels for two supplied and insufficient English tea bags and coffee. Asked reception for more towels which did come very quickly. Paid for the breakfast buffet but cancelled it as there was very little choice and most items were almost empty - very disappointed.
Susan, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Spacious room in a lovely setting

When we arrived check in was smooth - we got to our room to find a King size bed rather than the twins I had requested. This was a problem as I was travelling with my 14 yr old, 6ft son. The response I got when I called was initially to blame the fact I had booked through a third party site. Had I got a response to my request? Was I prepared to pay for an upgrade? I explained that I was booked for 3 nights and did not want to share a bed with my 6ft son. He then offered to check and found a room already set up as a twin. The room was clean, very spacious and we had a great stay.
Helen, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Stunning views from our villa and restaurant/main building. Spacious rooms with gigantic luxurious bathroom. Bathroom was relatively clean but shower screen had some soap scum on it. Otherwise fine. Restaurant had limited options but the food we ordered was delicious. Buffet breakfast was okay, limited options there too. We went to breakfast late so would've been good if we could have our eggs to order, instead of scrambled eggs and hash browns that had probably sat there most of the morning
Sahar, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Great location, housekeeping lacking

We arrived for our stay and decided to go out for a nice meal before heading back later into the evening, on first impression the room was tidy and had been cleaned, however it soon became clear that the bathroom had not been cleaned as there were soiled towels on the drying rack and an used flannel in the shower. It was too late at night to go to reception and request to change rooms for a one night stay, informed the front desk whilst checking out and it seems like this sort of thing has happened before.
1-night trip

4/10 Fair

I normally have a very nice, quiet stay at Rydges, which I book from time to time for work. I find the cottages an excellent place to hunker down and work on particularly intense projects because of how quiet and out of the way it is but this time I had a less than satisfactory stay. Adjoining cottage had a massive party on my first night - so only about 2 hours sleep that night, and I was completely withered by dozens of mosquitos on the second despite keeping all my windows and doors closed - so again, no sleep again. Not a lot management can do about either of those things but there were lots of empty cottages so there was absolutely no need to place me (staying on my own) into a cottage adjoining a wedding party. A plug in mozzie repellent being made available in the room would have been an easy fix for the second night. I went home absolutely shattered. The real kicker was the internet being almost completely unusable for the duration of my stay. I could barely load emails much less get any work done - I had to drive to Botany and do my Teams calls in a coffee shop, completely undermining the whole point of my stay. Not sure I'll return to be honest.
Anthony, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Tired but functional

Fine but very tired, the unit is needing a refresh (unsure if they're all the same in that regard) and some basic maintenance to be done. e.g. big mounds of weeds/grass growing in the gutters of our villa which clearly shows maintenance is being missed and for some time as that amount doesn't crop up in a few weeks/months. Light fittings missing, wet/musty smelling carpet and flaking paint on windows. It was a big room and a big bathroom with good shower pressure etc but the accommodation really did disappoint, overall.
Heather, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The place was really nice. Quite big and quiet and comfortable. The only things wrong is the water pressure is terrible and the hot water didn’t stay hot very long. And the driving range was closed. Great staff though. And the food was great at the 19th hole.

It is a very beautiful quiet place and you can go to the Down Town with the ferry in 40minutes. The villas are very nice and big but a little bit old
Lukas, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

Average facilities, great views f

Stayed at the Rydges Formosa for 2 nights in the 2 bedroom villa which is actually just 2 interconnecting rooms so no actual separate lounge room. The accommodation itself is a bit tired and the rest of the offering isn’t particularly centred around resort guests, eg., I had to call reception 4 times before I got a hold of someone to come and unlock the door between our rooms to make it into the ‘2 bedroom villa’. Breakfast was a very basic buffet, on the Sunday so many things ran out and they were very slow to replenish. The only thing really worthwhile are the views out over the golf course and harbour - which were stunning.
Lucy, 2-night trip

Unhelpful

Arrived after 11 pm had to get out of my car twice to get them to open the gate. Then after checking in no help to find my cabin… drove around for ages trying to find my cabin.. the lighting was rubbish so couldn’t see the room numbers at night. Staff seemed unwilling to help
