The Mediterranean style villa is nestled amongst brightly coloured terraced gardens, fruit and olive trees with lovely outdoor areas (including a spa pool and barbeque) for our guests to relax and enjoy the beautiful surroundings and privacy of the estate. The Villino has one queen bedroom, a full bath with bathtub and a small open plan kitchen/living area with wood burning stove. Large bi-fold doors open the house to the terraces and breathtaking sea views creating a beautiful open space. Our guests are welcome to explore the estate… have a walk through the olive grove and vineyard, enjoy the harvest from our large kitchen garden, find fresh eggs in the hen house, tramp through an acre of native bush with several 1000 year old Puriri trees or picnic in the shade of huge Pohutukawas overlooking our neighboring vineyards. The pool is for exclusive use by guests staying at the Villino and is heated from the 1st of October until the end of June. The property shares boundaries with several award winning vineyards and restaurants including Miro/Casita Miro, Stonyridge, Te Motu and Obsidian… making spectacular wine and food a short stroll away. A 10-minute walk down the hill leads to picturesque Onetangi beach and it’s 2.5 kilometers of white sand and a further 10-minutes down the beach leads to the local pub. Come and experience the peace and quality of a country lifestyle combined with a beach holiday… all with quality wining and dining on your doorstep.

Beautifully appointed throughout. Really loved the breakfast and treats provided. Highly recommend “The Villino” for a weekend away from it all. Many thanks for looking after us Kim ##### Michelle B. ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 16 Jul 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Ideal for a quiet getaway Weather was stunning which really made our weekend. The place was cute, loved the provisions for breakfast and the view. Spacious bedroom and a window seat in the sun. The place was a real sun trap which kept the place warm during the day too. Mandarins straight off the trees were delicious. An easy walk down the hill to the beach -naturally a little more effort required on the return. Use WaiCabs for excellent service every time we have been to the island and the best pricing. Either bring a car or plan to only visit the wineries and restaurants in Onetangi that you can walk to, otherwise cabs add up far too quickly if you are trying to get back to restaurants and wineries closer to Oneroa. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shelley G. 5 Mar 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Loved it!
