A private, expansive estate designed for long, unhurried days between the beach and the vines. The Space: Cypress Ridge Estate feels deeply connected to the land — olive trees, native bush, vineyard rows, and the sea stretching out below. The main residence opens into a generous living and dining area, anchored by a wood-burning fireplace and framed by large glass doors that lead out to the covered outdoor lounge. This is a home designed for gathering: friends at the kitchen bench, a bottle of Waiheke wine open, and dinner taking shape as the evening settles in. The chef’s kitchen is fully equipped and practical, made for shared cooking, slow lunches, or relaxed dinners that move naturally outdoors. The covered lounge includes a second fireplace, creating a warm, sheltered space for evenings outside. Three spacious bedrooms in the main house open toward the landscape, two with their own ensuite bathrooms. Each room is designed with calm in mind — soft materials, quality furnishings, and quiet views across the estate. A short walk from the main house, the guest cottage offers privacy and its own sense of retreat, with a king bedroom, bathroom, small kitchen, and a living area with a fireplace. An outdoor bath sits among the olive trees, a peaceful spot tucked into the land. The estate is a working olive grove and vineyard. Guests are welcome to wander through the rows, explore the native bush, home to several 1,000-year-old pūriri trees — collect eggs from the hen house, pick herbs and produce from the garden, or find a cool patch of shade beneath the pōhutukawa with views toward neighbouring vines. Boundaries are shared with celebrated vineyards , Casita Miro, Stonyridge, Te Motu, and Obsidian, placing long lunches, tastings, and beautiful meals just a short stroll away. The beach is close too. A ten-minute walk down the hill brings you to Onetangi Beach, 2.5km of white sand with calm, clear water and relaxed beachfront dining. Bed Configuration Bedroom 1 – Queen bed Bedroom 2 – Queen bed Bedroom 3 – Queen bed Guest House – King bed Please Note Minimum stays: 7 nights between Christmas and mid-January, 5 nights at all other times. This property is not available as a venue. Bookings accepted on request. Guest Access: Check-in from 2:00pm and check-out at 10:30am. Early check-in or late check-out may be available for an additional fee depending on same-day bookings. Guests have full use of the estate including the main house, guest cottage, gardens, bush tracks, olive grove, vineyard areas, and on-site parking. The Neighborhood: From Cypress Ridge Estate, the best of Waiheke unfolds in every direction. The estate sits high above Onetangi, surrounded by vineyards and olive groves, with views that run all the way to the sea. Just down the hill, Onetangi Beach offers 2.5 kilometres of soft white sand, perfect for morning walks, a swim before breakfast, or lunch by the water. Ki Māha and Three Seven Two sit right on the beachfront, both serving exceptional island dining. Moments from the property, Casita Miro is a local favourite, a hillside vineyard and restaurant serving Spanish-inspired tapas and Mediterranean dishes made with produce from their own kitchen garden. The setting is beautiful, framed by vines and art, and the service feels personal and relaxed. Enjoy a long lunch with a bottle of Miro Vineyard wine, or stay for their curated wine and sherry tastings, it’s a meal that lingers with you long after you’ve left. You’re also within easy walking distance to Stonyridge, Te Motu, and Obsidian Vineyards, all award-winning wineries offering tastings, shared plates, and garden-style dining. Each has its own character, Stonyridge for its famous Larose and long lunches, Te Motu for its tranquil courtyard, and Obsidian for small-batch wines poured just metres from the vines. Tantalus Estate, a short drive away, offers one of the island’s most refined dining experiences, with its exceptional degustation lunch highly recommended. For something more casual, stop at The Heke Kitchen, Brewery & Distillery, known for craft beer, local spirits, and live music on summer Fridays. Groceries and essentials are close by in Ostend, and Oneroa Village is a short drive for boutique shopping, galleries, and dinner by the bay. Getting Around: Getting around from Cypress Ridge Estate is simple. The Matiatia passenger ferry terminal is about a 15-minute drive from the property, and regular bus routes (50A and 50B) connect the ferry to Onetangi Beach and the island’s main villages. If you’re travelling without a car, it’s easy to get around. Buses run regularly, linking most beaches and vineyards, and the ride itself is part of the island experience, relaxed, friendly, and filled with views. The main route passes through Vineyard Valley, with stops right outside many of Waiheke’s best wineries, perfect for tastings, long lunches, and letting someone else take care of the driving. For a change of pace, Oneroa Village is a 10-minute drive away for boutique shopping, art galleries, and dinner by the water. E-bikes and car hire are easy to arrange if you’d like to explore further, and there’s ample on-site parking at the estate. However you travel, every route winds through vines and sea views — the kind of journey that makes getting there part of the holiday Other Things to Note: Minimum stays: 7 nights between Christmas and mid-January, 5 nights at all other times. Pets: Allowed on request only. Bookings accepted on request. The estate is not available as a venue. Like most Waiheke homes, the property uses rainwater tanks, please use water thoughtfully. Interaction with Guests: Our team is available 7 days a week, 8:30am–5pm, with after-hours support for urgent issues. For life-threatening emergencies (including fire), call 111 immediately. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker -
