Holiday rentals near Te Makutu Bay

The place is very comfortable and has everything we needed. The host were very generous with any request. When back in the area this is high on the list!

We have just spent 10 days in January 2025 at the Enclosure Bay Views house. We were anxious as there were no previous reviews (being a new listing), however the letting agent was delightful and reassuring throughout the process. We were NOT disappointed! We Loved the house which worked perfectly for us as 2 couples. Bed and bathroom upstairs and bed and bath downstairs. The house was quiet, private and everything we could have asked for. Comfy beds, crisp linen, clean and modern bathrooms, plenty of built in wardrobes, hangers, a huge kitchen with equipment and utensils in abundance. Plenty of everything! Great ocean views, laundry, storage areas, lounge areas and indoor and outdoor dining. Overall this house is really well organised for a holiday letting. I would definitely have a car, there are so many wonderful day trips around Waiheke and our quiet Enclosure Bay sanctuary was the best location on the island. Enclosure Bay is smaller and quieter than Onetangi. Palm Beach and Oneroa were a short drive away and the prettiest beaches on the island. The driveway is steep but its not a problem at all. It leads you up to the ocean views! Apart from some outdoor furniture which could be updated, we had no faults with the house and thoroughly recommend for an amazing holiday location.

I travelled to New Zealand with two of my nieces (aged 27 and 18 respectively) and we had the most magical stay on Waiheke Island at Onetangi Waiheke Beach House. The house is absolutely beautiful - comfortable and cosy, with beautiful light and stunning views. We felt so at home there that we really didn't want to leave! Our host, Jane, was wonderful. She patiently answered questions and made us feel very welcome. We would happilly recommend the Onetangi Waiheke Beach House to anyone!

Fabulous stay! The property is in a beautiful setting amid lots of green trees and bushes with lots of lovely birds flitting about. The beds are very comfortable, the kitchen facilities adequate, cosy TV room and a beautiful outdoor space with magnificent views. There are quite a few stairs to the apartment. Lovely touch was the inclusion of muesli, yoghurt, milk and tea and coffee. Rozelle was a lovely host who gave us some great recommendations for our stay.

We had a fantastic stay at Whare iti on Waiheke. The accommodation was perfect for a short stay. It was modern and well appointed, it had a comfortable and homely feel and a great view over the bay. It is very well located with just a short stroll to the village of Oneroa with its shopping, bars and great restaurants . Highly recommend.

Easy access to Oneroa, buses and the beach. Supreme location and overall a delightful place to stay.

Lucy is one of the kindest hosts we’ve ever met - and we have stayed in hundreds of places around the world! She went above and beyond to make our stay a memorable one - fantastic communication and generous beyond compare. Lucy’s home is a peaceful light-filled haven away from the hustle and bustle of Oneroa but close enough you can walk there in 15-20 mins along the esplanade/beach and over a gentle, undemanding hill. We loved exploring the area on foot and also walked to Mudbrick winery and Little Oneroa Beach. If walking isn’t for you, you can jump on one of the frequent local buses to get anywhere on the island - Palm Beach was a favourite of ours for swimming as unfortunately the Surfdale beach (easy 2 mins walk from Lucy’s) had a black algae outbreak so we couldn’t swim there (not a common occurrence we understand)! Lucy’s place is right across the road from a wonderful French cafe where we started our day with a coffee and delicious crepe or pastry. There are also two small supermarkets for picking up any groceries and a pub and restaurant (neither of which we went to so can’t comment on them). So many fabulous places to eat on the island it’s impossible to list them here! Lucy’s place is the perfect place to recharge your batteries and an ideal location to explore Waiheke from - get in touch with Lucy to find out more!

Stayed at Surfdale for two nights and was thrilled with the space, modernity and cleanliness of the apartment. Further pros are - comfortable,warm, well appointed kitchen, bbq and spa outside on the roof, views of water (left hand side), close to bus stop, close to shops, nice lounge, double curtains, entertainment and privacy Cons are bathroom modest size, but this is offset by the hot spa outside all to yourself! Great stay thank you for having us
