"Can’t say enough great things about the accommodation. To start - location is everything and the beachfront is just that - beachfront. Quick stroll and you are on the beach to taking a quick swim. Property was located in a slightly built up area with gave the perfect amount of additional amenities - dining, COFFEE and beach accessories. Folks at the Beachfront were exceptional - giving us insight to the area as well as making suggestions for various activities."

"An absolutely stunning place a ten minute walk from the beach and amenities. The cottage itself is secluded, and surrounded by the most lush trees and plant life, making it feel like your own private idyll. The facilities are superb, with laundry, cleaning facilities and everything you could possibly need for preparing meals (including a very generously sized gas barbecue!). There's also a outside wash down spot for those sandy feet after a day on the beach.The beds are comfortable, and the whole place is very well appointed and finished to a very high standard. On arrival, the cottage was cleaned to a very high standard and we had everything we needed right off the bat thanks to the pre-arrival information pack.A top tip for anyone hoping to use the Oven (and this isn't a criticism, just information for future holiday makers), you'll need to set the time on the oven before it does anything.Overall I'd have no hesitation in recommending this cottage to a couple or small family looking for a long weekend away. It represents fantastic value for money and it's well worth it."

"A fantastic home with gorgeous views and very well maintained "

"Spacious, clean, friendly staff and good value "

"Had a fantastic time and magic location. Comfy beds etc. Definitely pleased we bought a 4WD. There were SUPS that looked like they could be used by guests (not locked) - would have bought wetsuits if we had known. Highly recommend if you want to get away from it all!"

"Loved the secluded location, and the digital detox due to lack of mobile reception in the valley (reception available about ten minutes walk away if needed).The house has a welcoming feeling, especially for anyone who loves bush, birds and good books."

"We had a lovely visit and can’t wait to return. Pros: the rental agent/team were amazing. We had flights cancelled and ended up arriving a day late and they were so accommodating. Plus they were very responsive to questions during our stay. Cons: the house is very creeky. Charming but it’s tough to sleep while others are awake—unless they’re in the guest house. The driveway is extremely steep. I know it’s common for the island but it can be intimidating. "

"Had a fantastic time, enjoying what Waiheke has to offer, great home beautifully fitted out. Only thing missing was an umbrella for the outside dining table "
