Waiheke Island is famous for its beaches, vineyards and walks. Using our local experience we have created a guide for all visitors.
Use the menu to Explore things to do. While some come for a day-trip and an Instagram photo we believe a day trip barely scratches the surface and we welcome you to stay at Onetangi Beachfront Apartments. Well appointed, peaceful apartments with sea views, welcoming service, and easy access to Waiheke’s best restaurants.
Just steps from the sand and popular Waiheke’s dining (Ki Maha, 372, and Charley Farley’s), our six self-contained apartments offer boutique, effortless accommodation. Each with spacious balconies or patios and thoughtful amenities, every detail is designed for comfort and connection. Perfect for families, couples, and solo traveller's looking to explore the natural beauty of Waiheke Island. Our beachfront setting and proximity to the bus stop makes this the perfect base to relax, recharge, and explore Waiheke Island from. Free carparking also available.
Discover the magic of Onetangi through the voices of our guests — why just take our word for it when you can hear their firsthand experiences of staying right on Onetangi Beach!
Great location, large size apartment, very comfy bed and very pleasant staff. The information about island, how to get there and general assistance provided beforehand was excellent and stands out from other bookings for sure. Thank you.
The apartments were spotlessly clean and well maintained. Kitchen had everything you needed for cooking.
Exceptional service, booking was easy especially as I needed accommodation for 15 people.
The views on the beach front apartments were amazing and there are 3 restaurants within 2 minutes walking distance.
The apartment was spacious, comfortable and light. The situation was absolutely stunning and it was wonderful to be able to simply stroll across the road to one of New Zealand's most beautiful beaches. We thought the staff were without exception extremely helpful and considerate.
Waiheke excellence
We loved our stay at this excellent property. It is perfectly located on Onetangi beachfront. We enjoyed relaxing to breathtaking vistas of the ocean and listening to the sound of waves breaking on the beach. High quality features in this comfortable apartment made for a very enjoyable a holiday. Perfect!
Idyllic Setting
I wanted to get away and recharge my soul. Taking my small dog with me, this was the perfect location, right on Onetangi Beach where you could hear the waves at night. A great property for a family or going solo. This place hit the mark. Thank you.
We had a wonderfully, relaxed & comfortable stay. We love the location, friendly staff & the apartment we stayed in this last trip was amazing! we will definitely be returning!
Stayed on the island for a family wedding just perfect. Amazing restaurants and bars literally 20m away!
Magic Location
Thanks for a wonderful week on the beach at Onetangi. World class beach and the view from raised deck is second to none. Will book again. Mark.
Awesome holiday spot
Thanks for sharing such a special home - it was perfect for us, especially as we were travelling with older parents who could easily access all the amenities of the house and the short walk across to the beautiful beach was just perfect.
Great house and location
It’s a great house and a wonderful location. Right across from the beach and a few restaurants on the street. It was perfect for our family. Kitchen had everything you’d need to cook, the garden area is nice and provides some private outdoor area. Wish we could have stayed longer!
Loved our stay in Brian and Alison's townhouse right on Onetangi Beach. It was perfect for our family of 4 and our little pup. The kitchen has everything you need to prepare a full meal and the lounge is lovely and big which means plenty of space to spread out. We were there during Cyclone Hale so being able to swim in the cold ocean and then be in the hot spa a few mins later was a real treat.
Awesome and spacious
This house was fantastic. We were blown away by the size and quality of the property, beautiful and luxurious. Owners were great at communicating info to us. The beach is across the street, literally. Every amenity you could want. The upstairs master bedroom is stunning with ocean views.
