A perfect romantic getaway
This is a simply wonderful place to stay - private, romantic and unforgettable. Having a car with the property makes it even better and the host, Peter, was great at providing all the necessary info. Highly recommended!

Peaceful, lovely house with amazing views
Everything was perfect- we enjoyed the great sea views in the daytime and the outside spa at night. The house was spacious, light filled and very well equipped. The car is a huge bonus for exploring beyond the lovely local area. Peter was a very friendly and responsive host. Thank you for the stay!

Fabulous property in Onetangi
As you can see by the photos, the view is amazing, and it is better in person. Peter was an amazing host, answering questions on a moments notice. I would recommend this rental to everyone I know.

Great place to stay on Waiheke
This is a great place to stay, it's away from the bustle of Oneroa yet close enough to everything. Having a car included is a big plus. The place itself is stunning, with a great view of the water. The laundry facilities work great, and there's two drying racks (I wish more places had two!). The shower was hot. The bed was firm and comfortable. There's a separate a/c unit in the bedroom which we liked. The water is filtered but it's recommended to drink bottled water; there's a Four Square about a five minute drive away that sells 5L waters. We loved our stay here and would stay again
