A real pleasure to meet and have such a fun couple who were keen to enjoy the Old School flavour of the Studio and surrounds during their stay. Hoping a return visit will eventuate to enjoy more nature and happy beach days around the island 😊Love and happy travels!
This was the perfect place for me to stay over a long intense weekend on a Waiheke writer’s workshop while a cyclone brought torrential rain. The studio was a cosy sanctuary with all the comforts I needed. Lois was a very attentive host as we prepared for the unknown and kept in touch to make sure I was ok. Loved it!

Lovely to meet a happy traveller and share time to chat about highlights of the island. Excited to hear more of Waiheke’s unique artistic gems along with the scenic outdoors. Always a pleasure to hear personal comfort and enjoyment are featured during their stay 😊
Really enjoyed our stay in the apartment which was spotlessly clean, well equipped and in an excellent location for the beach, shopping, bars, restaurants and public transport. Lois kept me updated as our visit approached and was very sociable when we met. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the apartment to prospective guests.
