If you wish to leave your car behind there's a bus stop 5 minutes walk away with frequent bus services to the Hutt Valley and Wellington City. Or you can jump on a ferry into the city centre from Days Bay, a 5 minute drive away.

Sorrento Bay is situated 30 minutes (depending on traffic) from the Wellington Airport and 20 minutes from the city centre. In close proximity are the seaside villages of Petone and Eastbourne, both boasting great cafes, restaurants, boutique shopping and galleries. You will also find all other essential amenities here.

There are a number of walking tracks in the surrounding hills or you could stroll around the waterfront to the neighbouring bays. Enjoy the local beach or take a short drive to the popular Days Bay beach or any of the other beaches lining the coastal drive to the village of Eastbourne. You're spoilt for choice.

You couldn't get a better location. Spend the day exploring the city then escape the hustle and bustle back to tranquillity...or never leave!
