Other Things to Note:
This is a self-catered holiday home, not a fully catered stay. We provide a starter supply of essentials such as toilet paper, coffee, tea, and milk to help you settle in on arrival. Once these starter items have been used, guests are responsible for purchasing any additional supplies needed during their stay.
For properties with a fireplace, stays between 1 June and 30 September include a starter supply of firewood. Additional firewood can be purchased from local petrol stations, Woolworths, Four Square, and Mitre 10.
Beach towels are provided at properties with an available pool or spa. Guests staying at properties without a pool or spa will need to bring their own beach towels.
There is an Nespresso coffee pod machine and a plunger on site.
This property has central aircon and heating.
Minimum stays: 7 nights mid-December to mid-January, 3 nights on long weekends.
Like many Waiheke homes, Afio Mai runs on rainwater, so mindful use is appreciated
