Oriental Bay
Oriental Bay is Wellington’s most celebrated stretch of waterfront: a golden beach, a palm-lined promenade and a wall of sought-after apartments and homes looking out over the harbour, all within walking distance of the central city. It is the city’s prestige address by the sea.
Postcard Wellington. Swimmers and walkers on the promenade, boats on the water, and a calm, affluent atmosphere a few minutes from town. It is as close to a resort feel as the city gets, year-round.
Housing and streets
A blend of period apartments and modern waterfront units along Oriental Parade, with grand character homes climbing the hillside toward Roseneath, many with commanding harbour views. Aspect, sun and outlook command a premium here.
Getting around
Walking distance to the central city along the waterfront, with buses on the doorstep. Flat along the parade, steeper on the hill behind. Many residents barely need a car.

“At a time when the Wellington market is challenging, Jason worked hard to get us a good price for our property. He kept us informed all the way and always did what he said he would do. We appreciated his personal, trustworthy and professional attitude. Would definitely recommend him.”
