Ostend House | Overview by Stay Waiheke

1 Bedroom House in Ostend, Waiheke Island

Summary:
Overview is a peaceful hideaway set high above the island, offering uninterrupted views across the ocean, valleys, and rolling hills, and absolute privacy with no neighbours in sight. This is a place to slow down, breathe deeply, and take in the beauty of Waiheke from your own hilltop perch.
The Space:
Perched on a ridgeline with sweeping views in every direction, Overview by Stay Waiheke is a stand-alone retreat designed for quiet escapes and simple living. Large windows and sliding doors frame the outlook from the living area, bedroom, and deck, making the landscape feel like part of the home itself.
Inside, the space is warm and welcoming, with a cosy lounge, comfortable furnishings, and a log-burning fire that makes winter stays just as inviting as long summer evenings. The home runs on solar power, giving it a gentle footprint while still providing the modern comforts you need. The kitchen is fully equipped for relaxed cooking, and the outdoor deck is the perfect spot for slow breakfasts, sunset wine, or simply watching the weather shift across the water.
This is a place where you wake up to birdsong, linger over views that stretch for miles, and feel wonderfully removed from the everyday.

Summary: Great place, with everything we needed. Best part was the views and lovely deck to enjoy them on. Very private, but definitely need the 4wd to get up the driveway as listed.
