    We probably should have read the description better- We didn’t realise that the 3rd bedroom was outside! Wasn’t a problem for us but we may have chosen somewhere else if we were aware of this.

    Great location, The lounge with the fire was great , as well as the outdoor shower and spa was cool.

    Bed in master bedroom was slightly lumpy but was able to sleep well on the second night.

    Excellent location. Quiet but close to Oneroa shops. Excellent internal layout with separate areas to retreat and communal areas to get togther. Outdoor area was well designed. Well appointed kitchen.

    The water stopped working on our first night. We did phone the manager who came to fix it but it promptly stopped working again. luckily we were able to fix it ourselves and it was fine for the rest of our stay. No tea towels anywhere to be found, made cleaning up the kitchen difficult.

    Beautiful home in a great location. Has all the amenities you could want or need.

    A nice house in a good location, but the sewage-like stench was unbearable both nights.

    There was a stench both nights smelling like raw sewage that woke us up, forcing us to close all the windows and my wife wore a mask, fearing some kind of respiratory issue. We smelled it faintly when first entering the house, but the smell was largely in the front of the house, and we opened the rear doors and things were fine that afternoon/evening. Parts of other days were fine, too, but both nights were horrible with an overpowering stench. It came from outside the house, though the source is unclear. The owner/manager was dismissive of our experience, variously blaming it on the cyclone (we stayed in three other places on Waiheke Island the week following the cyclone in late Feb 2023, none of which had any smell whatsoever), our "taxing the system" (we never took an indoor shower or used the dishwasher or washing machine or any other appliance that used the septic system), and seaweed washing up at high tide nearby (we didn't smell this anywhere else in the neighborhood, and it didn't smell anything like seaweed, at least in our experience. It smelled exactly like raw sewage. And if it was seaweed at high tide, that's going to be a recurring problem.) I don't know the source of the problem, so I'm not blaming it on anything in particular, but it was an awful smell and made for a terrible experience in an otherwise nice house. If you're paying NZD$600+ per night you don't expect to be awoken both nights with the stench of raw sewage (or whatever it was). I've never written a negative review before, and maybe it was just a bad few days in that location, but prospective renters should know of our experience there. It was in stark contrast with every other place we've stayed, both on Waiheke Island and throughout New Zealand, which were all wonderful.

    Good location a 10-minute walk to town, nice backyard furniture with comfortable seating. Nice outdoor shower. A big back yard with lots of room and privacy. Good kitchen facilities if you want to cook, and plenty of plates, glasses, etc. Easy parking on-site and timely communication with the owner/manager throughout.
