Claire is very kind, accommodating and thoughtful. Made our stay on Waiheke that much better knowing we had a quiet and safe space to head back to at the end of each day, and a host that was very helpful. A very short (2-3min) walk to the main shops with plenty of food, bars, cafes, and the main island bus line, as well as a gorgeous small beach for swimming just a little bit further down the hill. We also found it easy to walk to a few of the main wineries (Mudbrick and Cable Bay) from there as well, and the public bus takes you anywhere else you may need to go (like Oneroa beach). Would highlt recommend staying with Claire on your visit to Waiheke. Thanks so much Claire!
