An idyllic setting and backdrop are offering a little slice of paradise on your escape to Waiheke Island. CrossTrees Chalet is the perfect <a href="https://www.bachcare.co.nz/holiday-homes-accommodation/waiheke-island">Waiheke accommodation</a> for a weekend getaway, mini-break, or to celebrate a special occasion. The chalet is a well-presented and completely self-contained holiday spot, filled with quality furnishings and breathtaking sea views that flood in through the large windows and bi-fold glass doors. Designed and built so guests could experience this beautiful and peaceful part of the island, CrossTrees Chalet is named with a love of the ocean in mind. 'Crosstrees' are the beams at the top of the mast of large sailing ships - the place with the best view. As part of that 'top of the world' feeling, Crosstrees guests look over the native regenerating forest (protected by a conservation covenant), and out to the glistening blue waters surrounding the island. CrossTrees is situated at the end of Te Whau Point, a beautiful peninsula in the more populated western end of Waiheke Island. Te Whau Peninsula is known for amazing views to the northern part of the island, south over Tamaki Strait, and back towards Auckland City. Enjoy a swim at high tide, explore the rock pools at low tide, follow the coastal walkway to Kuakarau Bay Forest Reserve, or follow the walking route known as the Te Whau Loop. The Countdown supermarket is a short drive away, as are several of the island's best-known vineyard restaurants, including Tantalus Estate, Wild Estate, Stonyridge Vineyard, and Te Motu Vineyard. Nearby, The Heke offers a brewery and distillery for those who would like a break from the vineyards. Experience olive tasting at Rangihoua Estate, or explore Whakanewa Regional Park and visit the endangered dotterels in a natural setting. For a picture-perfect holiday that is sure to beg you back again, CrossTrees is ready to host your stay!
