Hotel in Auckland

“Perfect getaway spot! Really homely apartment and so thoughtfully prepared (beach towels/mat, fresh milk, coffee, snacks, wine, water, beer). Location was perfect and the hosts could not have been more welcoming. Can’t wait to return! Everything we were looking for :)”

“Jason and the team at the Captains Bar are world class! A big thank you to them for making our evening so special. Amazing cocktails, stunning view, great atmosphere, delicious food. The rum flight is fantastic experience. Recommend to anyone visiting.”

“This restaurant is solid. Don‘t be deceived by the negative reviews. The chicken skewers were delicious.”

“We stayed for just 1 night and it was really amazing. Qi is super friendly and welcoming. The place is clean, quiet and comfortable. Bedroom had a kettle and mini fridge available for use. Slippers, toothbrush and conditioner shampoo were also included. Breakfast was delicious and right on time. Definitely worth it!”

“This is the third time we have stayed at Omana Luxury Villa and it is just so amazing. There are four differently decorated 1 Bedroom villas that are generous in size and next level! The quality of products, the ocean island view and the setting is so incredible plus the convenience to get there from Auckland city really is just fabulous. We travel a lot and think we have a little bit of heaven right here on Waiheke Island for all the lovely tourists that come to our country to enjoy and for people like us who feel like a getaway so close to home is just fabulous. 45 minutes and we’re there. Congratulations to Silmara and Cobus for having done such as a superb job of creating an environment we just crave to get back to.”

“Excellent service, accommodating host and exceptionally clean. The views are stunning! Highly recommend a nice relaxing stay here”

“Having just spent the weekend at Quail Lodge with my Mum, I simply can't give it a high enough rating! Starting with the warm welcome, the kindness that hosts Sam and Hamish showed was second to none. The accommodation was superb and it felt like we'd been wrapped up in a luxurious big hug. The food was exceptional, Sam is an incredible cook and nothing was too much trouble. Everything including the beautiful location and scenery was truly a memorable and lasting experience. Hoping that we can return in the not too distant future. Thank you for having us.”

“Can’t recommend Marino Ridge enough! Caroline and Peter are amazing hosts. They’re very knowledgeable about life on Waiheke Island and gave us lots of helpful recs for our whole trip through New Zealand. Marino Ridge has incredible views in all directions and the rooms are very comfortable. It’s a great location, with easy access to the ferry, hiking trails, and Oneroa Village.”

“You simply have to come here. Pip and Andy are fantastic hosts and there accommodation is fantastic. The rooms are spacious and uber clean. Pip and her team are very helpful with local information and can help with transit connections. We hired a car through them which was really convenient. The prepared breakfast is one of the best you likely ever experience. It certainly was for us. They will help you plan a fantastic experience while on this beautiful island.”

“The greatest fastest responsive team, Mike and Jackie are awesome as, frrom JUST CABINS, RODNEY WAITAKERE area. Thank you both heaps for catering to our cabin needs so fast and delivered within a day after confirmation. Appreciate all your efforts and great promos too! xxx”

“Leaving our lab with Cecilia & team was a smooth and easy process, giving us peace and mind during Lulu’s recovery. Lulu recently had a TPLO, and we were unable to care for her on the property. She’s been with The Doggery for the last 8-weeks. During this time they’ve cared for her remarkably well, helping her heal, with weight loss, kept on top of her medications, facilitated vet trips all the way to Franklin(!), and provided clear/concise updates on the wellbeing of Lulu. We could not have asked for a more effective recovery facility, and definitely know she was loved the entire time.”

“Rachel is great in managing the apartment. If issues arise, rest assured she'd be on top of it. Very helpful, responsive and professional.”

“I can not recommend Purradise Manor Cattery enough ! We have been using Kirsten's service since our boys were still small and it's been years. It's completely worry-free when we had Kirsten taking care of our boys when we were away. Love seeing our boys though her Facebook updates. We have now moved to Australia so we are gonna miss the good services Kirsten provided.”

“Thank you Nathan and Tim make the place very beautiful and House very nice and clean and we got room see garden view, we so happy to stay there , We have no more to say it just so good , Will see you agin for sure,”

“This was our first time at Waiheke Island we loved every day we stayed. One O One cabins was beautiful & peaceful the cabin was equipped with all you needed clean and modern. A sunny spot listening to the Tui each morning. Our only tip would be, be aware of all steps as it is a climb if you struggle with going up and down. Thank you for an amazing stay.”

“Brett and Veronica were amazing hosts and our stay was truly 5 stars. The views of the vineyard are beautiful, there is a short hike to the beach, and they have a cute dog who hung out with us for a bit. Veronica also took us into town for a yoga class one of the mornings!”

“We absolutely love this place! We were worried at first as our pup wasn’t very social, but this place has totally transformed him. He’s more confident, social and loves playing with the other dogs. I love the fact that we keep getting updates and photos/videos throughout the day. We truely feel that they care and love our pup! He is always excited to go there and is happy and exhausted once back! Will definitely recommend!”

“WOW - not only is the Lodge beautiful and relaxing, but the hosts are equally as charming. Our stay just happened to be on one of the most gorgeous days of the year, still the ambiance and views would be just as nice had the weather not been exceptional. We can't rave enough about the location...simply wonderful. What a nice way to spend a week-day. The food cooked by our host Gene, was first rate, and the friendly atmosphere added to an all-round superb mini-break. Thank you again for such a lovely visit... hope we'll be back. Claude & Taryn Auckland.”

“The host is nice and very patient whenever you need a helping hand. The house is clean and neat as the rooms are warm and cozy. Heating is well facilitated to give us a warm winter. Generally, it's a worthy experience living here.”

“My little puppy has just gone along for his first day and I'm already super impressed. The staff are beyond friendly, they knew my puppies name without ever having met him and they provide regular updates on the first day with personalised feedback. They upload photos daily as well so you can see your puppy is having a good time :) Will definitely be bringing him here regularly. Thanks. Evan”

“Purrfurred Cattery is second to none! Sally and the team do an excellent job of making fur babies feel happy, loved and cared for away from home. We have two adventurous and rather large and demanding Siamese boys. They are always cared for and accommodated in a way that works for them. Thank you so much for the level of kindness, patience and care offered. We appreciate all the Purrfurred team do! Facilities are large, varied and clean. The cat minders are conscientious and considerate of each cat’s needs. Our boys return home settled and happy. A very special place that we are thankful to have established a relationship with.”

“You will be seeing us again! What a gorgeous little pod with everything you need in the best location. Thank you so much for making our little getaway so special!”

“Very big Thank You!! to Barb and Dave from warblers retreat for the perfect Eco Nature Registry style wedding. Absolutely amazing grounds with so much immersive nature surrounding you. The Canopy venue is truly beautiful, the perfect private setting with everything you need. Our guests were very impressed!

“Baxter our Golden retriever has been going to Dog Den for most of his life. He’s now a senior dog and still LOVES going to daycare. The staff are so loving and friendly to him and we know he is safe and well cared for. They will always let us know how he’s been and if he has been a bit off. They are flexible and understanding if we need to make changes to days he attends. They feel like part of our family and we’re grateful for the care they show our furbaby ❤️”

“Grainne and Kevin at Connemara Country Lodge were truly amazing. We had our wedding there over the weekend, and the day was nothing short of perfect. There wasn’t a single fault; they were incredibly helpful, thoughtful, and organized. They ensured everything ran smoothly, and most importantly, they made our wedding day everything we dreamed of at the perfect venue. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Liam and Erin Q”
