Tāmaki Makaurau Stays was founded by Tyler Cooper, an Auckland-born local who spent most of her life here before moving to Australia for a few years. While she enjoyed her time abroad, nothing ever felt quite like home, and returning to Tāmaki Makaurau inspired her to create something of her own.
Wanting more freedom, flexibility, and a chance to build a business that reflects her values, Tyler set out to combine her love for travel, hosting, and creating comfortable spaces. That vision became Tāmaki Makaurau Stays, a service built on warm, well-managed homes and genuine trust with property owners.
Her personal approach, attention to detail, and natural connection with people ensure every property is cared for properly and every guest feels welcome. With a down-to-earth style, Tyler offers stress-free short-stay management that keeps homes looked after and owners at ease.
