This was such a fantastic location! And the space was unique and comfortable. Bobbie was a wonderful host and very accommodating. We LOVED Waiheke. FYI, while the home is super close to the bus stop, you may want to take a taxi or other transport from the ferry because the road is challenging with rolling luggage. Keep in mind there is a small flight of stairs down to the apartment too. Once our luggage was stowed, the convenience of the locality and view were amongst our favorite features of the apartment! The island is magical! Make sure to check out Tantalus, Cable Bay and Mudbrick wineries. Cable Bay and Mudbrick are a beautiful, slightly uphill, 20 and 30 minute walk walk from Bobbie’s home, with some beautiful views along the way. Oneroa and Onetangi beaches were splendid (soft sand, warm and clear water, minimal waves) and there are so many wonderful restaurants. Such a wonderful experience! Also, while I don’t necessarily recommend it, we walked to the ferry from Bobbie’s on our return to Auckland with no trouble at all since it’s mostly downhill. Just allow enough time. It’s a nice thing to be able to do. Thank you again, Bobbie!
