Barry and Antoinette are marvelous hosts. Their home is exactly as advertised and the view is amazing. I was especially impressed by how clean everything was - spotless.
Barry picked me up and dropped me off at the ferry. Antoinette had breakfast waiting for me when I woke.
Waiheke is a magical place. This is a perfect location to explore it all. There are a few wineries within a 20min walk and downtown is about a 20min walk as well. If your not much for walking, they will have all the info you need for tours and bike and car hires.
