Garratt Peninsula - Onetangi Beach Views | House in Waiheke Island
4 Bedroom House in Onetangi, Waiheke Island
Summary:
Overlooking the full curve of Onetangi Beach, Garratt Peninsula is a spacious coastal home set above the shoreline with uninterrupted sea views from the living areas, deck, and spa pool. Designed for relaxed island living, it offers generous indoor and outdoor spaces well suited to families or groups wanting time together by the water.
The Space:
Set high above Onetangi Beach, Garratt Peninsula opens directly to wide views across the bay. The layout draws you through the house toward the deck, where outdoor dining, loungers, and a spa pool sit overlooking the water. The position captures the movement of the beach throughout the day, from early swimmers in the morning to soft evening light over the bay.
Inside, the main living area is open and light-filled, combining the kitchen, dining, and lounge into a single connected space. Full-height glass doors open to the deck, creating an easy flow between indoors and out that works well for shared meals, long afternoons, and unhurried evenings after the beach.
The upper level includes three bedrooms and a family bathroom. These rooms are quiet and comfortable, with outlooks toward the sea or surrounding bush. Downstairs, a fourth bedroom and bathroom are located beneath the main house and accessed externally. This space is fully self-contained and works well for grandparents, older teens, or friends travelling together who value privacy and independence from the main living areas.
Due to the stepped layout throughout the property, the home is not suitable for toddlers or guests with limited mobility.
