We couldn't have asked for a better spot for respite from big city hustle.
We couldn't have asked for a better spot for respite from big city hustle. We had complete privacy and serenity but also convenient access to the beach, coastal walks, shops and restaurants. The photos don't lie - the location is spectacular and the views are as good as you will get anywhere. The house is premium quality and the clever design provides the flexibility to accommodate a large group while also feeling intimate enough for a special family holiday. We will definitely be back.

It was a relaxing calm and beautiful place.
Completely serene nature at its best. Loved everything about the property. Will come again
Please add a microwave then it will be perfect
Lovely property, tastefully decorated with all modern amenities . We had a lovely time and two nights seemed too short a break to enjoy the views , the house and Waiheke. ❤️

Thanks for choosing to stay with us. It really is a magic spot isn't it. We are pleased that you enjoyed your time there. See you again soon!
Unbeatable views. Easy to waste hours gazing at the beauty of the gulf! Property managers were quick to clarify the differences that 2 websites had about room layout, partly down to recent reconfiguration. They flagged kitchen was small but we had most meals at property and found kitchen to be well stocked with all items you need. Well heated for winter escapes with central heating, gas and wood fires. We would love to return in warmer dryer months to fully enjoy the varied outdoor areas that have options for getting out of sun or wind. Sitting on the slope of the steep lawn gazing out to sea was mesmerizing. Stunning coastal walk if you can pull yourself away from the property and the birdlife was a real treat. Our party would certainly return to this special place. Any downsides? None that bothered us but if I was to name any it would be
1. No bath
2. Two of the bedrooms are directly off the living space with louvered doors that so hard for them to feel separate from any general noise from living space (website I think flags this)
From the moment we stepped through the door and walked down the steps to the single level living area we were wowed! The view is stunning, and with multiple relaxing and gathering spaces, you are spoilt for choice. Cannot fault this place at all.
Dirty, infested and absolutely not well maintained.

We have tried to contact this guest to ask for details, but he has not responded. This property is absolutely not run down, not infested with anything and is always presented spotlessly clean!! We are not sure whether this review was a mistake but the guests never contacted us with any concerns during their stay at all. Please ignore this review - this is a great spot!

The view from this property is nothing short of spectacular - we could (and did) look at it for hours and the house is designed so that no matter where you are, you look out over the Hauraki Gulf. The pool is perfect for cooling off and was 100% as good as it looks in the photos, and having beachfront access from the property was amazing. The house is very well equipped for cooking, or you have the option of Oneroa's restaurants and a number of vineyards only a short drive away. Spectacular!

Stunning spot and super house with amazing 180 degree views from Auckland to Rakino and the islands
Stunning spot and super house with amazing 180 degree views from Auckland to Rakino and the islands beyond. Waiheke Island is a fun place - vineyards, great walks/ hikes, quirky bars, good restaurants, big organics community. This was close enough to Oneroa to enjoy it all. But more secluded and with uninterrupted uplifting views. Ideal for a large family or a wider group wanting privacy. Very clean + with quality cotton linens (important to me!). Beautiful pool. Also liked the fire at night.
