Wavesong by Stay Waiheke

Summary:

Set high above Onetangi, Wavesong is a modern, sun-filled retreat designed for quiet, restful days overlooking the water. With sweeping views, a private spa deck, and contemporary interiors, it’s the kind of place where mornings begin slowly and evenings settle under soft coastal light.



Perfect for couples wanting privacy, comfort, and that long exhale that only Waiheke provides.



The Space:

Wavesong is shaped around its views, long blue horizons framed by native trees, sunlight across the deck, and the sound of the ocean drifting up from Onetangi.



The lounge opens completely to the balcony, keeping the indoor and outdoor spaces connected throughout the day. Enjoy a simple breakfast on the deck, unwind on the sofa, or settle into the dining area for two while watching the light shift across the bay.



A covered rear deck features a private spa pool surrounded by tropical greenery, making it a peaceful evening retreat after a day on the beach.



The kitchenette is equipped for easy meals and relaxed evenings in, while the bedroom sits quietly to the side, capturing the same wide sea outlook, a calm place to wake up and watch for dolphins across the water.



The bathroom is newly built, bright and modern, with heated floors and generous storage, keeping everything easy and comfortable during your stay.
