About this Holiday House

Overlooking the pristine waters of secluded Sandy Bay and the Hauraki Gulf, this hidden gem nestles in a sunny, verdant oasis just 50 metres from golden sand. This property is a veritable paradise for either a young family, or for couples seeking privacy and romance far from the madding crowds. You are perfectly positioned to embrace the simple pleasures of life by the beach! Relax and enjoy quality time on the large sun-drenched deck and listen to the waves or pop down for a swim at the safe all-tide swimming beach or unwind beneath the trees while the children play in the spacious garden! And there's more: just around the corner is Enclosure Bay, a huge natural swimming pool at high tide, with waters warmed by the sun. This charming cottage is peaceful and private, stylish and yet retains the quintessential bach charisma. There is an open plan kitchen, dining & living area, with a wood burner to keep you warm in winter and an elegant indoor bathroom to meet your every need. The bedroom has a super comfy double bed, and the bunks are suitable for three to fifteen year olds. From this location, equidistant from Oneroa Bay and Palm Beach, you can launch your own boat and enjoy a spot of fishing. You can hire SUP boards at Palm Beach for a change of pace or explore the many, fabulous walking tracks in the area. A short drive will take you to Oneroa village with cafes, restaurants, bars, shops, library and art galleries to indulge the senses. You are close to wineries, the golf course and the supermarket: it is the ideal base to explore the wonders of Waiheke.

Shaun Millar
The property is well located, next to Sandy Bay beach and a short walk to Enclosure Bay beach. The property is private and has a lovely traditional batch feel to it. For many staying there it likely will be a great place. Unfortunately for us, there was no water from Tuesday night to the middle of Thursday (that’s after just 2 showers, 2 dish washes and a few toilet flushes). Not being able to shower, to wash your hands or flush the toilet really detracted from the stay. Perhaps the issue is a rare one. But as the water tanks for the property are very small and water levels can’t have been checked immediately prior to our arrival (we understand that those cleaning/preparing the property were held up from starting, so perhaps under time pressure a standard check may have been missed) it’s a possibility to be aware of when booking
