Seaside on Waiheke at Stay Waiheke
Summary:
Seaside on Waiheke is a modern, waterfront studio designed for slow mornings, open windows and easy coastal living. With sweeping sea views and direct access to the water’s edge, this light-filled retreat brings together comfort, simplicity, and an unbeatable location just moments from Oneroa Village.
The Space:
This luxury studio opens directly toward the bay, with floor-to-ceiling glazing framing the water and filling the room with natural light. The layout keeps everything simple and uncluttered, with a comfortable king bed, a relaxed sitting area, and a seamless flow to the outdoor space.
A fully equipped kitchenette makes it easy to prepare light meals, and the modern bathroom includes quality fixtures, soft lighting, and a clean, contemporary finish. Step outside and you’re met with open lawn, calm water, and a quiet stretch of coastline perfect for morning walks or sunset views.
Bed configuration:
• Bedroom 1 – king bed
Please note: Minimum stays: 4 nights from mid December to mid January, 3 nights all holiday weekends, 2 nights Friday/Saturday. One night bookings Sunday to Thursday.
Guest Access:
Buses run from Onetangi, stopping near major wineries, including The Heke, before continuing into Oneroa Village and then on to the Matiatia passenger ferry. The closest bus stop is an easy walk from the property, and services run regularly throughout the day.
Taxis, e-bikes, and rental cars are available, but many guests find this central location convenient enough to explore on foot.
The Neighborhood:
Seaside on Waiheke sits in a peaceful part of Oneroa, close to the shoreline and an easy walk to the village.
For coffee or breakfast, guests can head to Wai Kitchen, The Local, or Fenice, all set along the main street with sea views or sheltered outdoor seating. For something casual, Vino Vino offers relaxed dining with a great outlook over the bay.
Lunch and dinner options nearby include Mudbrick and Cable Bay, both known for long vineyard lunches, wine tasting, and views back to the city. The village also offers small shops, galleries, and essentials within a short walk.
Oneroa Beach and Little Oneroa are close for swimming and relaxed afternoons, and the coastal paths around Blackpool and along the headland offer easy places to explore on foot.
The Matiatia passenger ferry is only minutes away, keeping the studio well-connected while still feeling quiet and tucked away.
Getting Around:
The closest bus stop is an easy walk from the property, with regular services running between Onetangi and the Matiatia passenger ferry. Buses stop near the island’s major wineries, including The Heke, Tantalus, Te Motu, Stonyridge, and Wild Estate, before continuing into Oneroa Village and down to the ferry terminal.
Taxis, e-bikes, scooters, and rental cars are available across the island, but many guests find this central location convenient enough to explore Oneroa and the surrounding bays on foot.
Other Things to Note:
The property uses rainwater tanks, so guests need to be mindful of water use, especially during summer.
Minimum stays apply:
4 nights from mid-December to mid-January

Wonderful
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
Was angry when I realised that breakfast was not included, I had booked a unit with breakfast.
There was no air-conditioner in the unit - for the price paid you would expect an air-conditioner.
As we were new to the island we accepted that $50 for transfer from the ferry terminal to our accommodation was reaonable, however, once we had checked in and walked realised that the bus stop was 200m away and cost $2.45 to the ferry terminal - this is the type of information that should be advised to customers.

Excellent Accomodation and Service
We really loved staying at Seaside on Esplanade. The hosts were very welcoming and went above and beyond which was greatly appreciated.
It was also only a short 15 minutes walk into the shops for lunch.

Lovely property
Very nicely appointed studio and nice touches like continental breakfast and a minibar based on honestly system. Lovely bedding and towels. very windy spot though and strong sulphuric smell present the whole time, which I guess is possibly form the type of seaweed and algae washed up on the beach.

Perfect escape
This little batch is perfect: the view is gorgeous, the location is 4mn walk from the village, the hosts are amazing.
They've welcome us with open arms, gave us heaps of recommendation and were most helpful during the whole stay.
Unforgettable!

Hidden little gem!
I had the most wonderful weekend here. The room is just gorgeous. The location is fantastic, walking distance to shops and beaches and the owners are just the most lovely people you will ever meet. I felt so fortunate being able to stay here. I will definitely be back
