Apartment vacation rentals in Waiheke Island

Perfect Retreat in Devonport! My stay at this beautiful cottage in Devonport was nothing short of exceptional. Nestled in a peaceful, secluded location yet just a short distance from town, it offered the perfect balance of tranquility and convenience. The outdoor area was a true highlight—an inviting space to relax, unwind, and soak in the serene surroundings. Whether enjoying a morning coffee or an evening glass of wine, the setting was simply idyllic. Inside, the cottage was warm, welcoming, and thoughtfully equipped. The kitchen was outstanding—spacious, modern, and stocked with all the appliances and essentials needed for a comfortable stay. It made cooking an absolute pleasure. From the cozy furnishings to the attention to detail, everything about this stay was designed for comfort. If you’re looking for a peaceful retreat with easy access to Devonport’s charm, this is the perfect place. Highly recommend

Had a great stay. We appreciated the thoughtful extras of a selection of coffee and milk in the fridge. The location is great, as St Helier’s is a lovely area of Auckland and has some great shops. We felt refreshed after our stay

Located close to beaches, forests, and wineries this is an ideal accommodation with very congenial hosts. The unit is immaculately clean and fresh looking and makes the most of a small space for breakfast prep. Honestly, she’s thought of almost everything you could need. Lauren provided info on nearby hiking and stores and restaurants when I had specific interests. We even shared a walk with her dog Molly one morning to nearby beaches I had yet to visit. There are lots of hills around, even the driveway is quite steep, so best to have a car if you’re not reasonably fit and don’t enjoy that type of exercise. Coming home at night, it’s quite dark near the house, but she provides a flashlight or you could use your mobile flashlight.. Overall, a wonderful stay, lots of fresh air, exercise, beautiful nature, peaceful environment in a very comfortable apartment. Thank you Lauren. I would definitely recommend and look forward to staying again..

Had an excellent stay, the unit was clean and quite peaceful too. The host was kind and also quick with communication. My partner and I found it very convenient as it was only a 6-8 minute drive to an event we were attending at Mount Smart Stadium. Overall, super lovely place with a great host would definitely stay again!

Steve was great to deal with and the stay at his AirB&B was a perfect relaxing weekend away. Perfect for couples looking for a peaceful romantic time away with breathtaking views.

Great stay with Johnny. Easy comms with him throughout the booking. Booked another 2 weeks to stay :)

Great location. Peaceful despite being so close to Oneroa village. Beautiful outlook. Spotlessly clean. Well stocked kitchen. A great place for a quiet weekend escape.

Wonderful spot! Very clean, quiet and comfortable. Cosy beds and everything we needed. Great location - we lived in the neighbourhood many years ago so it was a lovely trip down memory lane for our 3 generation family group. Highly recommend, would definitely stay again!

The house is very cozy, so the supplies are very complete, you don't need to prepare anything, you just need to check in directly with your own belongings. The host also prepared a lot of food for us, even snacks and ice cream for us. It was very late when the day arrived, everything in the house so that we could rest directly, the host had two lovely dogs, the host Trevor was very welcoming, but I had bad English, and there was not a lot of communication. If I go to New Zealand again, this house is my first choice.

Fantastic apartment in a great location. Thomas was an awesome host and provided clear instructions and quick to respond. Would certainly recommend a stay here

This is a very nice little self-contained flat with easy access to the beach and to Howick village and shops etc. Hayley was very helpful throughout our stay.

We really enjoyed our stay at Kaye's. The apartment is in a very quiet neighbourhood, which suited us perfectly as we staying in Auckland for a sporting event and needed a quiet space to rest up each evening. We had everything we needed and were surprised how large the apartment is, it looks smaller in the photo's. The extra bed meant that my daughter and I didn't have to share a room. Would happily recommend Kaye's place and definitely stay there again if the need arose.

Thank you for great stay! Ali's place is cozy and peaceful, and there is much more to it than what is listed on AirBnB. Ali is a friendly and responsive host, and was very helpful in providing recommendations for local coffee shops and cafes when I asked about it. Furthermore, Ali was very generous in allowing early check-in and late check-out based on what I needed. There are beautiful beaches nearby to visit, with some cafes and restaurants overlooking the ocean. Definitely consider booking Ali's place when you are looking for peaceful stay in East Auckland.

Comfy with many thoughtful little things that make a stay so much easier like a beach towel, plenty of coffee, washing powder etc. Friendly helpful hosts. Can't beat the location so close to a fab swimming beach!

spacious unit, well appointed in quiet neighbourhood. lots of extras. would happily stay again.

The family was very friendly. Place was as described with a very comfortable king size bed in the primary bedroom. Would stay again!

Great accommodation that truly feels like home because everything you need is there (from tennis rackets to towels and bedding to kitchen equipment and much more). The view of the skyline from the balcony is amazing for sunsets. Mike gave us a warm welcome and showed us around. All the nice neighborhoods are within easy walking distance; we left the car conveniently in the parking garage. We would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful place with amazing pool that is even better than it looks in the photos.

Highly recommend a stay at this property in St Heliers , everything was fabulous and Geoff so friendly and helpful. Will be back

Peter’s AirBNB is gorgeous and well stocked. He was friendly, responsive, and on premise much of our stay (which is a private section of his home), but also great about giving us privacy. We especially enjoyed the pool and charming garden spaces - as well as the breakfast food and tea/coffee provided. A few notes that weren’t fully clear to me before arriving: >Washer is on site but generally not for guest use (though we got the OK to do a couple loads when we asked) > There is no living room or indoor common area of the Airbnb space. > There are gorgeous outdoor spaces with shade covering to enjoy for meals at home - but only bedroom/hallway space available indoors for “hang out space” > The Rotary walk area is easily accessible from this space - and the views are even better than the pictures :)

We had the most fantastic stay! Allison was incredibly responsive and friendly. The location really stands out. It is front row with lovely unobstructed views and restaurants in both directions, yet it is still private and peaceful. Honestly, we felt privileged to be able to stay in what is clearly a very cherished family holiday home.

it's a beautiful apartment on the hill where I could see the ocean and the blue sky from my bedroom every morning. The bathroom is clean and the kitchen, living room are spacious. If you have a car is perfect to drive uphill. Otherwise, it's very steep to walk up every day!

Absolutely five stars for Christina’s Tradewinds studio on Waiheke Island! If you’re looking to truly disconnect and unwind, this is the spot. Tucked away in a peaceful and secluded area, it’s the perfect escape from the hustle of everyday life. The studio is thoughtfully equipped with everything you need for a relaxing weekend. I loved how quiet and calm it was—ideal for reading, resting, and recharging. The location is a dream: about 2.5 miles from town, and right near beautiful walking trails that wind through vineyards and offer stunning views of the hills and the water. No air conditioning, but I slept comfortably with the door cracked and the shades down—fresh island air and total serenity. Highly recommend if you’re craving peace, nature, and a slower pace. I can’t wait to return.
