A fantastic clean bach which has been tastefully renovated, with all the modern conveniences in a great position.....very handy to the best beach on Waiheke, lots of outdoor space and bird life, (Pukeko, Tui, Wood Pigeon, Rosella, Ducks etc). Loved the mini games room. Would highly recommend for a peaceful relaxing stay. Thanks again.

"We are a couple with a 16month old and found this property perfect for our stay on Waiheke. Onetangi is most definitely the best beach on the island and being a short stroll away from it and an even quicker drive to it was awesome. The house was kid-safe and had everything we needed and we would definitely stay again. AndyB Oct 2016"

From our very first guests...
"Great place to stay, will be back."

And from the next...
"We loved your place - we only wished we could stay longer"

Wonderful relaxing place

We enjoyed our stay here so very much! The space was perfect for our family.. it was better than we expected with the cleanliness and space available.. my kids absolutely loved the fooseball, and the place was comfortable.. well located! Stuart was lovely.. we broke 2 wine glasses in the dishwasher, and he was really kind to not worry about it! We love waiheke, and it feels like we’ve found our place to stay whenever we return for a weekend away! We highly recommend the place!

A great spot for our mini break

We always try to stay here when we visit Waiheke. It’s only about 7 mins walk to fabulous Onetangi beach and restaurants. Close to 4 square for supplies. A great little clean and tidy comfortable house with everything you need, and a lovely sunny deck to sit on in a quiet area surrounded by Tuis and Wood pigeons.

Great Family Bach

Great location, really well equipped with everything you need and lots of outdoor space for the kids to play. My 5 year old loved the football table in the sleepout! Great location near the beach, with a four square, bottle shop and takeaway just a short walk down the road too. Would definitely stay again. Perfect for 4 adults and 2 kids. Stuart was really quick to communicate and really helpful, thank you!

A delightful property very clean and well maintained and with all the necessary modern appliances to make a stay easy.Excellent communication with the owner .The location is very good-a short distance to the beach and very close to a very well -stocked Four Square store.Very good cafes at the beach and much else to be discovered on the island. Buses frequent but with a car even easier to explore Waiheke. A perfect holiday home.
