Waiheke Island House | Waiheke Waters Edge by Stay Waiheke

3 Bedroom House in Waiheke Island

Summary:
Waiheke Waters Edge is a one-of-a-kind coastal retreat, set right on the water’s edge in a completely private bay, surrounded by paddocks, native bush, and an extraordinary collection of friendly farm animals. It’s the classic Kiwi beachfront holiday: swims at the end of the lawn, big open skies, birdsong, and space for families and friends to slow down and reconnect in total privacy.
The Space:
Waiheke Waters Edge is made up of The Boathouse (main house) plus The Bunkhouse, comfortably hosting groups of up to ten guests in a relaxed, barefoot setting.
Days move easily here. Swim straight off the foreshore, wander through the farmland, watch ducks and peacocks wander past, or enjoy long lunches on the lawn overlooking the water. Evenings settle into board games, BBQ dinners, and stargazing in a bay with no light pollution.
Inside The Boathouse, the lower level includes a cosy lounge with a wood fire, dining for six, a kitchenette, and direct access to the lawn and shoreline. The two upstairs bedrooms feel simple and peaceful, with calm outlooks across farmland and sea.
The Bunkhouse sits nearby, a great space for older kids or additional guests, fully self-contained with its own shower, toilet, and hand basin.

Summary: Property Manager Simon was brilliant. We loved interacting with the donkeys and the birds. The towels were new and fluffy.Property was not what was expected. I booked expecting to have a mooring although explained to me why later it was too late to book another property. The house was comfortable and the kitchen well equipped but no stove. The bunk house was not at all good. Felt the linen was not clean seem to have been used for storage and was only cleared out on the day we arrived. The shower dirty with mould. I certainly would not have 2 many people stay at the property. An elderly family member was suppose to have been with us and at the last minute could not join us because of health reasons - was a blessing. She would not have coped. Although we experienced a few negatives we enjoyed our holiday and the property was gorgeous.
