Art Lovers Retreat Oneroa Escape | House in Waiheke Island
1 Bedroom House in Onetangi, Waiheke Island
Summary:
A private, light-filled hideaway set above Onetangi, Art Lovers’ Retreat is designed for two, quiet, simple, and surrounded by native greenery.
The Space:
Art Lovers’ Retreat is a self-contained cottage arranged across two connected pavilions. The setting is elevated and peaceful, with greenery surrounding the home and natural light coming through throughout the day.
The main pavilion holds the open-plan living, dining, and kitchen areas. Under the high gable roof, the space feels uncluttered and calm, opening directly to a wide deck that looks out to the bush. The kitchen is fully equipped and works well for easy meals, slow mornings, or relaxed evenings in.
The bedroom sits in the adjoining pavilion, creating a quiet, separate space while still keeping everything connected. It has a comfortable king bed and a simple, peaceful layout ideal for long, easy mornings. The bathroom is positioned nearby and is practical for everyday use.
The deck is the centre of the home, shaded through the day, sheltered from the afternoon breeze, and a comfortable place to spend time outside. Most guests end up using it for meals, reading, or unwinding after exploring the island.
