Host profile image
Waiheke Unlimited specialises in premium Waiheke accommodation, offering a curated collection of holiday homes, luxury villas, and classic Kiwi baches across Waiheke Island. From beachfront estates to secluded retreats, every home is hand-selected for its charm, location, and quality.

When we consider a new property, we ask ourselves what we’d want as guests: tranquillity, comfort, privacy, panoramic views, and excellent amenities. If a home ticks all those boxes, it earns its place in our collection of Waiheke holiday houses.

Over the past 25 years, we’ve welcomed thousands of guests — from heads of state and global business leaders to international celebrities — all seeking a professional, personalised, and memorable stay.

We start with the property, then build a fully tailored experience around each guest. We offer self-contained accommodation on Waiheke Island with optional extras like private chefs, provisioning, massage, daily housekeeping, babysitting, and bespoke island experiences. Or guests can simply relax and enjoy their privacy, knowing help is just a call away.

Waiheke Unlimited currently manages around 60 handpicked Waiheke holiday rentals, with nightly rates ranging from $180 to over $6,000. Whether it’s a cosy hideaway or a world-class luxury accommodation with an infinity pool and wine cellar, each property delivers a unique take on island living.

We are also the trusted choice in Waiheke Island property management, providing full guest services, marketing, and on-island support for property owners seeking reliable short-term rental income.

Sustainability is at the heart of what we do. We provide eco-friendly accommodation using Eco Store cleaning products, digital compendiums to reduce paper waste, and a fleet of electric vehicles. Single-use plastics have been removed from our operations.

We’re passionate about Waiheke — its beauty, its people, and its experiences. Let us help you discover the very best of Waiheke Island.
