About this property

Rustic Glamping Dome in a Rural Setting near Waipu, North Island

In just 1.5hrs from Auckland, you can unwind in a geodesic glamping dome that is perched on a hill with spectacular sea and countryside views. Wake to golden sunrises over the ocean, watch fiery sunsets fade to a starlit sky, and enjoy the privacy of your own cozy dome, outdoor shower, and eco-toilet. Romantic, rejuvenating, unforgettable.



In just over 1.5hrs hours from Auckland, your off-grid adventure awaits. Perched halfway up a hill, our rustic geodesic glamping dome is the perfect retreat to reconnect with nature. From your private perch, gaze out across rolling farmland that tumbles down to the glittering Pacific ocean.



The gorgeous white sands of Uretītī beach is just 2 minutes drive or 25 minutes walk.



Soak up golden sunrises that rise over the ocean, watch the sky catch fire at sunset, and when darkness falls, lose yourself beneath thousands of stars in a crystal-clear sky.



Inside, your private dome offers a cozy bedroom, hammock, and heater to keep you warm and relaxed. Step just outside to your own luxurious shower and eco-friendly composting toilet, blending comfort with sustainability.



it’s the perfect romantic escape—off-grid, intimate, and unforgettable.



Guests are free to take a look around the rest of the property, but please respect the other dome when guests are staying. We also live onsite :-)



Happy to answer questions if we are around, otherwise available on the app for any questions.



We are still working on this set-up, so it is fairly basic and not yet landscaped. There are also some finishing touches that we would like to add to the domes (e.g. more fencing & an outdoor bath!), but for now the basic glamping amenities are available at a discounted price, so please bear with us! This is a rural property and it is glamping. This means there are bugs around the place like flies, spiders, slaters & occasionally bush cockroaches. As we are an Organic property, we don't spray any poisons. If you don't want a bug inside, please pick it up & put it outside, or ask us to come & remove it for you 😊
