We loved the location of the Waiheke pad, so handy to the shops, restaurants and beach. The views are spectacular out to the bay from the balcony and very peaceful just to sit there to enjoy. The beds were comfy and clean. Even although this is located in Oneroa we had no noise problems from the street or neighbours. The whole place is very clean except we did find the shower cubicle to be a bit grotty and the hand basin in the toilet must have been somewhat blocked as always took a while for the water to drain away. We would book again and hope the toilet would be better serviced. 🙂
We absolutely loved this property! Well appointed, clean and tidy. Super comfy beds! Great views and the location was unbeatable. Will be booking again!
Fantastic 2 bedroom apartment/house. So handy to loads of eateries and a beautiful beach. Wicked views from the house, definitely would love to come stay again.
The Waiheke Pad is a neat little unit in the Oneroa township providing direct access to shops and restaurants.

This was THE perfect place to stay on Waiheke. It is right in the middle of ‘town’ and so easy to just pop downstairs for coffee, restaurants, shopping. And the views from the living room and deck are amazing. The beach is a quick walk. The ferry terminal is even walkable in about 15-20 minutes. It’s a sleepy town, so even though it’s on the main road, it was very quiet after about 8 pm. Everything was clean, nicely decorated, and felt big and spacious.
The Apartment was centrally located, everything available on your doorstep for exploring Waiheke, dining out or buying supplies to stay in. We would definitely stay again if heading to Waiheke.
There were supplies available for our use, the mosquito plugins were appreciated - as there's no getting away from them! Also, the laundry powder, soaps and general kitchen items – these made the stay a home away from home. It would be improved by having a more recent model TV so we could watch something other than Freeview and we couldn't find the DVD player.
We had a great long weekend stay at The Waiheke Pad. The cute apartment was perfect for our family of 4 and we enjoyed being able to walk down the stairs and get to restaurants, cafes and shops within 30 seconds. We loved sitting out on the deck with great views of Oneroa Beach and the bay. Didn't have any struggles with noise at night and the beds are comfortable. I would be sure to not leave any food or crumbs out as we encountered an ant infestation even though we didn't cook any meals in the apartment. Luckily ant bait was supplied and we did our best to clean up so we didn't attract more.
The location of this property was fabulous. We were a little worried that it was going to be noisy but it wasn't. The rooms suit more a family than 2 couples as one couple had to sleep in single beds. Overall a very pleasant stay. Would have been nice to have had some milk in the fridge for a cuppa when we arrived!
Great little place for our weekend stay. Ticked all the boxes. Lovely view, great location, nice fresh and tidy interior

Really nice place to stay
It was a beautiful property to stay in marred only by the shockingly cheap ironing board. We were visiting very nice restaurants and couldn't iron our clothes properly.
Also a water pistol for the seagulls would be good.
A fabulously clean property with parking out the back and great access to cafes, restaurants and shopping. Excellent spot with a view of the bay and all amenities you could need.
Great accommodation and perfect location. Have already booked to stay again

Good central location, nice comfortable spotless Bach with good amenities, nice new kitchen and great bed!
While the Bach was right in the CBD of Oneroa it was still very quiet with supurb sea views.
