Two day stay
This place looked amazing online but in reality it is extremely run down, not well kept and in need of some serious repairs and maintenance.

Great view
Great location, old but refurbished and very clean. Shower pressure was great despite from on site water tank on an island with scarce water supply. Swimming pool small but deep so great for cooling down and underwater swimming.

Great facilities and stunning views
Really enjoyed our stay, received a warm welcome with complimentary glass of bubbles at the bar. Unit was modern, spacious and clean. Had a nice patio with a sea view. Loved having the option to use the pool and a restaurant on site, which is rare in Waiheke. Food was amazing and staff really lovely. Will definitely book again.

Awesome place!
Stumbled upon this and couldn't have picked a better spot. Beautiful grounds and amazing food on site! The hotel is up on a hill but within walking distance to a beach 10 minutes away. We also rented e-bikes on site to travel around the island.

Nice place and fabulous views. We were in a property at the bottom of the complex which was a little disappointing as meant a real hike up a very steep hill to the amenities but on the whole, we had a nice stay. Restaurant was expensive so we didn’t eat here.

This property has great views of the sea. Just beware there are many stairs to get to some units. Ours was 104 stairs to the restaurant, pool and restaurant. The restaurant food and service is excellent.

Nice location, great views and close to the beach and public transportation which is a plus..space could benefit from some upgrades given the price they charge. Swimming pool is still under renovation,
Overall, a very good option for a short stay in Waiheke.

Four stars on average probabily speaks well for the most part ,that we would happy to stay again.
The oven inside could have been cleaner ? the bench top had a burn from a hot pot which in hindsight could be blamed back on us, overall it was tidy and clean, and im not really expecting to get a call about the burnt bench top?

We were upgraded from the Short Stay room to the Scenic Studio which was such a lovely start. Beautiful driveway and walk up to the resort. Check in and checkout super easy. The pool and deck area is lovely to sunbathe in. Our room was quite nice and comfortable. Only negative was the cleanliness which could be improved slightly. Some brown marks on the ceiling and dust bunnies hanging around, the cutlery and cups were a bit dusty and water stained. Overall though, the room was nice (could do with some modernising) and we loved the balcony.
