WAIKARE | Be My Guest

This beautifully renovated beach house ticks all the boxes for a superior island holiday.

Situated just above the beach and a few minutes walk from the village, this property has all the advantages of central positioning, but with the privacy and tranquillity of a secluded location.  It boasts sensational views from the generous deck out over Oneroa Bay - this is a very special spot!

The house is stylishly furnished and boasts spacious living & dining spaces inside & out. You enter the property via a sheltered courtyard, which has a BBQ & outdoor dining table.  The front door takes you into the open plan dining area, with the well-equipped kitchen to the right.  A couple of steps takes you up to the living area, which opens onto the huge front deck with stunning views of the bay.  This has a large outdoor dining table & chairs, and there are outdoor couches on the main deck - perfect for relaxing & enjoying the view!

Off the living room are the 2 bedrooms and the a bathroom.  The master bedroom opens onto the deck & has the same lovely views.  The third bedroom is off the dining area - it has 2 sets of bunks, one with a double bed on the bottom, and a sliding door can be used to separate the room in half.  There is also a second bathroom beside this, with the laundry.   

A 20 minute walk from the passenger ferry, and 10 minute walk down the local path to Oneroa beach, make this house a pedestrian’s dream. Should you want to explore further afield, regular buses leave from the village.  There is even a great cafe immediately at the top of the drive (which as well as being very convenient for coffee & brunch can also mean some morning noise). 

Bedding Configuration:

Master Bedroom - King bed
Second Bedroom - Super King bed
Bunk Room - 2 x Bunks, 1 with a Queen bed on the bottom, sliding door separating the 2 areas

Special conditions:
The property is not to be used for any large parties or gatherings.

Families and small groups preferred.

The Ideal Location to Decompress
We are a family of four that came to Waiheke for a long weekend break. The location of the property is perfect: stunning views overlooking Oneroa beach, plus a 5 minute walk to the village and all it has to offer. Plenty of space, with big bedrooms and an amazing deck, on which we spent the best part of our stay - soaking up some autumn sun and admiring the view. Totally relaxing stay - we will definitely book again.

Great holiday in a beautiful home
Overall we had an amazing stay as the home was beautiful with beautiful views and loved the convenience of the shops only 2 mins away. Great house for a family with kids as seperate wing for kids with bunks and adults can have the master with views. We had a car so we did some trips to other beaches like Palm but loved the centrality of Oneroa. 10/10 holiday.

Spacious house with stunning views in perfect location
This is a wonderful holiday house. It's so close to Oneroa village yet quiet. The kitchen was well equipped and it was stocked with the basics. The beds & pillows were comfortable and the driveway was easy to park in. We have teens and it felt very spacious. The view is hard to beat and we'd love to return some day.

Great location
Great location. Really well appointed kitchen. The beds in the bunk rooms were average. From the bottom bunk they are a bit tatty and a couple of the mattresses were not comfortable. Overall house was great
