About this property

Sunset Sanctuary | Stay Waiheke

Away from the masses and congestion of Oneroa, this Omiha property offers privacy, spectacular sea views and sublime sunsets from the huge wrap-around deck.

When you have finished entertaining in the designer kitchen, move outside to the wonderful, large deck to sunbathe or indulge in the hot tub whilst you enjoy the view and sunsets.

Wake up in the morning to peace and tranquillity as your alarm clock. Then get ready and pack your bags for adventure. Simply walk out the door and there are amazing bush walks and two beautiful beaches (one with a playground) only 500m away- you are spoilt for choice.

If walking is not your thing, don’t worry, you have lots of recreational options in close proximity. Jump in the car and you have a choice of vineyards, restaurant, the golf course and more beaches less than a 10 minute drive.

With a brand new renovation and flexibility accommodation options, this beach house works for any dynamic. Separation for multiple families or room for four couples, this Rocky Bay offering is perfect for wedding parties, tourists or holiday goers who want to enjoy the real Waiheke.

Stunning views in a stunning location. It was a nice escape from the mainland and an easy set up perfect for a base to see the wineries of the island. Definitely bring your swimmers for the spa pool!

Beautiful spot - would recommend

We loved our week here - two families of four and we were all very comfortable. The house is clean, modern and well equipped. The views back to the city are spectacular and the large balcony around three sides of the house provides great indoor/outdoor options all day and into the evening. We would return.

Lady’s Weekend on Waiheke

We are 8 women who get together once a year for a good old fashioned catch up. The house was lovely, and the deck views spectacular. We loved the spa and enjoyed our stay. Only recommendation would be more seating in addition to the couch as we’re getting a bit old for bean bags 😂.

Breathtaking views

Property was clean and well equipped with breathtaking views across the bay. Our host was warm and friendly and had good local knowledge. The Spa was a delight and quality levels were checked whilst we were there which was reassuring. Only thing that would be an added bonus would be aircon as was quite hot when we stayed. Thank you 😊

30th Birthday

Great base to stay for a 30th birthday weekend away with friends. Only mention is one outside door to one of the rooms downstairs didn't open so to access the room had to go through the other room making it slightly awkward when people didn't really know each other that well. Overall great place and very enjoyable stay would recommend.

So much to explore here and views are amazing!

This property is so lovely and really well set up with everything you need. The games cupboard was awesome and all the cooking essentials are there to help make the most of the top quality BBQ. We chose a winter escape and the fire kept us all toasty. During the day there is so much to see by foot and the kids even got a quick swim in! Thanks for having us- we will definitely be back!!

Gorgeous getaway

Really beautiful location in a chilled part of Waiheke. Enjoyed the ceiling fans as the rooms got quite hot in summer. The beach was walking distance and there were lots of lovely walls in the area too. The bach had everything we needed and Katie was wonderful to communicate with. Thank you!

Great location and outlook. Clean and tidy with a very responsive host.

Great place in a wonderful location. Relaxed and easy. Everything was there that we required for our stay. Fly screens the only thing missing with mosquitos in swarms at night. It meant keeping everything shut after dark. However, small issue overall during a beautiful stay.
