About this cottage rental

This cute bach has recently been renovated for comfort with an authentic twist. The house is ready for a wonderful holiday on stunning Waiheke Island. It has wrap around decks, with large, covered areas, so you can use the bbq anytime. Relax in mid-century style, mixed with contemporary highlights. Curl up on the couch and enjoy the eclectic book collection. Wander down the road to the famous Ostend market on Saturday mornings, walk the new Te Ara Hura walkway which goes straight past the bach, or enjoy some of the neighbourhood cafes. Bring or rent a car or bike for the short trip to any of the beautiful beaches - Palm Beach is only 5 minutes away by car.
This is a simple house with a semi-rural outlook. It does not have a sea view, but the closest beach is a 5 minute stroll away. The cottage has its own off-road parking and sits on over half an acre of landscaped grounds, approx 30m from the main residence. A great base for a short stay or extended holiday on the island.

Doing some work on the island? The bach has unlimited free UFB WIFI and we can offer black and white printing if you need it. Reasonable printing charges apply.

We have a simple wall mounted TV with DVD and Chromecast, stream video from your mobile device or laptop, great for personal use, won't overwhelm the lounge.

Available all year round, for short stays and longer holidays. It has been insulated, and we have good heating, extra blankets for cold nights and plenty of hot water bottles to keep your feet warm, but hey we hardly ever get frosty nights on the island.

Special conditions:
No fences around the property, may not be suitable for small children.

Extras: Linen (included); NOTE: Under Kiwi bach tradition you are expected to: Clean the house and do the dishes before you leave;

Friendly but discrete hosts made sure we had everything we needed. Cut little bach, beautifully simple, and with amazing pieces by renown NZ potters. Comfortable beds, quiet location with lovely outlook.

Comfortable, pleasant and clean. Well set up and easy to live in. Our questions were answered promptly and we had no difficulties finding or getting into the property. Good shops and bus stop(s) nearby (10 min walk). I’d be happy to stay there again.

The place was a little hidden gem with a spectacular view from the living room. We loved everything about it. The 50/60's style deco and the peace and quiet. The place was very conveniently located near farmers' markets and shops.
