Just a stones throw from the sand at Onetangi Beach, The Residence On The Beach is a well-appointed three-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment within the premium Sands complex. Set on the upper level, the apartment enjoys elevated views across Onetangi Bay and a bright, relaxed coastal atmosphere.

The open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area sits at the front of the apartment, making the most of the outlook. Large windows with plantation shutters frame the sea views and fill the space with natural light throughout the day. The living area is comfortably furnished for laid-back beachside living and includes TV and Wi-Fi, while the full kitchen is equipped for easy meals at home.

All three bedrooms are located off the main living space. The master bedroom features a king bed, the second bedroom has a queen bed, and the third bedroom includes two king single beds, making the layout well suited to families, couples, or groups of friends. Two modern bathrooms with tiled showers add convenience for longer stays.

Guests are moments from the beach and have access to the shared gas BBQs set within the landscaped grounds of The Sands. A flat walk along the beach leads to well-known dining spots including Charlie Farleys, Three Seven Two, and Ki Māha, with several of Waihekes vineyards also close by.

The Residence On The Beach offers a comfortable, well-located base for enjoying Onetangi, combining generous space, ocean views, and one of Waihekes most desirable beachside settings.
