We had a lovely stay on Waiheke, despite a truly insane amount of rain. The house was a perfect place to park up for card games, with the beautiful view out onto the vineyard. Cooking facilities were great, beds were comfy, and it’s location was perfect for adventuring around the island when the weather permitted. Do suggest renting a car, as we did, to make it easy to get around. Carolyn was a great host, super communicative and quick to respond.
