With five exclusive Villas and choice of one or two-bedrooms, Villas Waiheke is designed with privacy in mind, chic finish and attention to detail. Views are centre stage – each villa commanding a personal panorama of Waiheke Island and the Hauraki Gulf. Champagne toasts at sunset from this secluded peak are definitely moments to cherish. It’s intimate relaxation with sheltered decks – complemented by a 12-metre mineral pool and seated heated pool with sun-lounge area, plus gym.

Tucked far from the crowds below; amid a mantle of bush, infinity lawn and native gardens, the solitude entices. Yet there’s easy access to the island’s nature trails.
