I have been visiting Waiheke Island several times for the last three years. Hekerua lodge became my favorite place in Waiheke not only for its convenient location, but also for it's friendly and community vibes. During my last visit, even though the island was not busy and the lodge was quiet, the vibe was a bit different. Some of the lodge rules were not clear and not followed by some guests, a couple nights were a bit noisy until the next morning, making some guests to feel uncomfortable.

Best Hostel I‘ve ever been to. Wanted to stay for a weekend and bow it‘s already more than am month. Living in the Hostel feels like renting a house with friends and family. I would recommend it!

Stayed here for 3 nights with kids 7 and 10 and mother. I mistakenly booked for 1 person but the friendly guests and owners helped us out, and we stayed together. Being spring the pool was empty (it's getting a repaint soon) and I was grateful (too cold) as my 2 boys had plenty to keep them occupied withe the hula hoops, board games, exploring the grounds and they made a friend in the owners son. All guests were friendly and the place has a very chill vibe. There was a birthday party on the 1st night but we had no trouble with noise in rimus 1 room. Would definitely reccommend for backpackers or people looking for cheap accommodation who aren't afraid of communal living.

I love this place. It has my youth in it. It's seen me grow old. If you are looking for a home away from home, a family and lifetime friends. This is it.

Beautiful hostel with nice people and a great athmosphere. Just be prepared for parties almost every night ;) they have a beautiful garden and a pool. Close to the bus stop. The only thing they could do better is to write on the website that there is no laundry available.

I found this place quite loud and cold. Not my idea of a peaceful island retreat. If you want a young party hostel, this is the place to go. At 36, I felt too old to be here. Sound carries horribly into the upstairs private rooms. I feel there is no privacy or escape from the noise. You’re either a part of the party or you better have good earplugs. No heat in room, no extra blankets. Office closes at 6pm. Not terribly impressed with this place. Wouldn’t book again or recommend.

The best place to stay in Waiheke! Really comfortable, facilities and shared spaces are always clean & tidy thanks to their fantastic woofers. Very nice people from all over the world to share a talk or a glass of wine if you want. And if you want to relax, there is a hot tube to be used and if you need to rest, rooms are very quiet and comfortable. Best PIZZAS in the island!! Will miss pizza nights. 100% recommended!

We had an excellent time here for the weekend. Very enjoyable short walk with amazing views too local shops. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Other guests were friendly to talk too. Atmosphere was warm and inviting. Pool and spa pool had a relaxing feel too them. So nice too cool down unwind and relax surrounded by beautiful nz bush. Beaches were breath taking. Well recommend to stay here on a budget!!! We will definitely go back there again.
