Accommodation in New Zealand: Those wishing to study in New Zealand have various accommodation options to choose from. Although the most popular and recommended option is the family home stay, hostels and apartments are alternative choices.

New Zealand family homes: New Zealanders are considered very friendly people and the country is proud of its Homestay policy. Families taking in students are carefully selected, making sure that amenities necessary for the student are covered. Generally, these homes are close to the universities or within easy access. Staying with a family is a very enriching experience as it allows the student to get to know the “kiwi” way of life from the inside, sharing customs and traditions and picking up the colloquial phrases and expressions.
A half board system is followed on weekdays, which includes breakfast and dinner, and full board on weekends.

Hostels: staying in hostels is also a popular choice for those students that have reached a certain level of English. They are brought into contact with students from different countries, with whom they share the rooms; individual rooms tend to be more expensive.

Apartaments: renting an apartment is, no doubt, the least economic option, although it is common for several students to rent a furnished apartment together, sharing expenses, thus making it less expensive. Rents are usually made on a more long term basis, which allows for the negotiation of more convenient prices. Apartments to let are situated close to the universities and usually include a washing machine, central heating and a refrigerator.
