Nicola and Jackie's place is an absolute gem. Absolute gem. For architect and design nerds, it's a modernist heaven tucked amongst the hills of Waiheke. You're totally surrounded by nature and the only couple of cars you'll see are headed to a beautiful vineyard/restaurant down the street. The two cabins are outfitted beautifully, from the actual design down to the thoughtful details in the kitchenette, gorgeous Ashley & Co soaps in the bathroom, and linens on the bed. Nicola and Jackie are consummate hosts who are welcoming and full of recommendations and great energy, but also let you do your own thing, too. We extended our stay an extra day and I would have extended a year if I didn't have to come back to the US! Highly recommend this, especially if you're traveling in a small group, like two couples, because you can rent both cabins.
