About this house rental
Summary:
The Geode House is an architecturally designed retreat set quietly within native bush. Calm, private, and thoughtfully detailed, the home is designed for slowing down, reconnecting, and settling into the natural rhythm of Waiheke. Recognised nationally for its interior and architectural design, it offers a peaceful place to rest, reflect, and spend time together.
The Space:
The Geode House is a design led retreat shaped around light, landscape, and quiet moments. Surrounded by native bush, the home feels grounded and private, with soft natural light moving through the interiors and outdoor spaces throughout the day.
The house has been nationally recognised for its design, receiving a 2023 Living Space of the Year award for interiors and being named a finalist in the Home of the Year architectural category. These accolades reflect the care and intention behind the layout, materials, and overall sense of calm the home offers.
Inside, the living areas are warm and inviting. A full kitchen sits alongside the dining space and relaxed living room, with a wood burning fireplace providing comfort during cooler evenings. Large windows frame the surrounding bush, keeping the connection to nature present in every room without feeling exposed.
There are three distinct sleeping spaces. Two enclosed bedrooms each feature king beds and offer privacy and comfort. A third queen sleeping nook sits just off the dining area, separated by a screen divider, making it well suited for close family or friends sharing the space.
The main bathroom is centrally located, with a second toilet positioned off the laundry for added convenience.
Outside, a generous deck and cedar hot tub provide a quiet place to unwind. This area is ideal for long evenings, birdsong at dusk, and slow mornings surrounded by bush.
Bed configuration
Bedroom 1: king bed
Bedroom 2: king bed
Bedroom 3: queen bed with screen divider off the dining room
Guest Access:
Guests have full, private access to the home, deck, outdoor hot tub, and onsite parking.
The Neighborhood:
The Geode House sits in a peaceful setting close to some of Waiheke’s most beautiful natural areas. Whakanewha Regional Park is only minutes away on foot, offering bush trails, coastal forest, estuary walks, swimming spots, and native birdlife.
A short drive brings you to some of the island’s most loved vineyards and breweries, including Tantalus Estate, Te Motu, Stonyridge, Wild on Waiheke, and The Heke, each offering their own take on long lunches, craft beer, wine tasting, and relaxed outdoor dining.
You’re also within easy reach of Onetangi Beach, Omiha, and the cafés, shops, and eateries of both Ostend and Oneroa.
Getting Around:
There is easy parking at the property for guests who bring a vehicle.
Regular bus services run between Onetangi and the ferry, stopping near all major wineries including The Heke, then continuing through to Oneroa Village and the Matiatia passenger terminal.
Taxis and rideshares operate island-wide but can be limited during peak times.
Other Things to Note:
The property operates on rainwater tanks, so guests must be mindful of water use, especially in summer.
Minimum night requirements apply year-round (7 nights mid-December to mid-January, 3 nights on holiday weekends, 2 nights at all other times).
Interaction with Guests:
Our Stay Waiheke team is available seven days a week from 8:30am to 5pm.
For life-threatening emergencies or urgent property emergencies such as fire, guests must call 111 immediately.
For all other urgent after-hours issues, an emergency number is provided in the arrival instructions.
