Crescent Villa - Palm Beach Views and Spa

Summary:

Set in an elevated position in Ostend with views across Palm Beach, Crescent Villa is a spacious island home with wide verandas, leafy surrounds, and room for families or groups to settle in comfortably. With five bedrooms including a separate sleepout, generous living areas, and an outdoor spa and shower, it offers a relaxed base close to beaches, vineyards, and village hubs.



The Space:

Crescent Villa sits in an elevated, leafy position, looking out across Palm Beach and the surrounding coastline. The setting feels calm and private, while remaining well connected to beaches, cafés, and the centre of the island. High ceilings, polished timber floors, and wraparound verandas give the home a sense of space that feels both generous and grounded, with natural light and sea breezes moving easily through the house.



The open plan living, dining, and kitchen area forms the heart of the home. A long dining table works well for shared meals, while comfortable seating looks out to the garden and trees beyond. Doors open onto the verandas, creating multiple places to sit, read, or enjoy the outlook throughout the day.



The kitchen is well equipped for holiday stays, with everything needed for cooking and shared meals.



Sleeping is spread across the main house and a separate sleepout. In the main house, there are three queen bedrooms and a larger bedroom with a super king bed that can be split into singles on request. Two family style bathrooms serve the main house, each with both a bath and a shower. The separate sleepout has a queen bed and external access and does not have a bathroom, making it well suited to guests wanting extra privacy.



Outdoor living is a highlight. Wide verandas frame leafy outlooks with views across Palm Beach, while the garden below adds privacy and a quiet, green feel. A barbecue is set up for easy summer meals, and an outdoor spa and shower provide a simple way to unwind after beach days or walks.



Crescent Villa is an easy, well laid out home designed for unhurried island stays, with space to come together and room to spread out.

The Neighborhood:

Crescent Villa sits in Ostend in an elevated, leafy setting overlooking Palm Beach. This central location makes it easy to move between beaches, cafés, vineyards, and village hubs without long drive times. Palm Beach is one of Waiheke’s most popular swimming beaches and is well suited to relaxed mornings by the sea. Arcadia and the Palm Beach Store sit just behind the sand and are easy options for coffee, breakfast, or casual dinners.



Onetangi Beach is only a short drive away and offers a long stretch of sand lined with beachfront cafés and nearby vineyards, making it a popular spot for extended beach days and long lunches. Waiheke Zipline Adventure Park is also nearby and offers a scenic way to see the island from above, set among native bush with coastal views.



Ostend itself is close by and works as a practical hub, with supermarkets, casual eateries, and the popular Saturday market. Oneroa Village is around ten minutes away and provides boutiques, galleries, bakeries, and dining options.



Getting Around:

The nearest bus stop is a short walk from the villa on the main Palm Beach and Ostend route. Buses run regularly from Palm Beach and Ostend, continuing through Vineyard Valley and stopping near well known wineries including Stonyridge, Tantalus Estate, and Te Motu, before travelling on to Oneroa Village and the passenger ferry terminal at Matiatia.



The Heke is also nearby and is a popular stop for wood fired dishes, craft beer, and a relaxed garden bar.



Taxi services operate year round, though availability and pricing can vary during busy periods. Walking tracks in the area link beaches, bush reserves, and vineyard areas for guests who enjoy exploring on foot.

There is a Coffee Plunger at this property

magical experience with that wow factor

From the moment we walked up the stairs to going onto this property, we were "wowed", amazing views out to the gulf/sea, big warm rooms, nicely furnished and a hot pool to just float away the cares. Beautiful. A wee drive up the hill to get to the place but absolutely worth it.

Awesome weekend away

We found this property to be in a great central location and the perfect place to celebrate a 60th, with a room for everyone and lots of area's so we were not in each other's space, the hot tub and views topped of a great weekend. Also a bonus to be allowed to bring the dog away was nice! Would definitely stay again.

Birthday get together

The house was perfect to spend some time with good friends. Easy to get about the Island from, walk down to the beach and come back relax in the hot tub. we also gathered some fine food and wine and enjoyed cooking at the house and dining in the beautiful dinning room. The house really made the weekend special.

Great Sunsets

House is well positioned as a base to the many vineyards - spa and outdoor shower well used after an afternoon of cycling. Weather was wild but very comfortable inside with adjustable internal heating. Recommend the house as a weekend getaway.

Another great stay at this house

We are a group of cyclists who wanted to enjoy a long weekend at Waiheke. We have stayed here before and again were very pleased with the property. Some enhancements from last year added to the stay especially the outdoor shower and deck.

Amazing!

Everone was so amazing to work with. It was a beautiful house. Loved the view and so close to Palm Beach. The walk down the bridal track was steep but well worth doing the short cut. Bus service to go to locations right outside the cafe and beach. Very easy to get to.
