Great Location

A great little place in a great location! Was so nice being able to walk into town for dinner or down to the beach! The views are so beautiful and easy to drive to all places. Only thing we would mention, is that the bed in the 2nd bedroom isn’t made for anyone 6ft and over, there wasn’t enough room for my partner with wood at both ends! Otherwise no complaints 😊 would recommend

The photos don't do this place justice - views are amazing!

The photos don't do this place justice - views are amazing! Perfect location, 5-10 minute walk from Oneroa Village, pretty handy to the beach although the walkway to the beach is very steep, hard work with kids/prams. The house is well set up with nice furnishings and really spacious for a 2brm house. The kitchen/dining/living area is fantastic, lots of outdoor living too. We had a few issues with chattels (empty gas bottle, no coffee plunger, dryer broken etc) but these were mostly resolved.

I think this is the perfect holiday home I really do.

I think this is the perfect holiday home I really do. I am not sure of the wifi situation on waiheke but if this property had it, it would receive 5 stars hands down. Still, I would definitely return and stay there again.
