Property Details

Hop on a ferry or helicopter from Auckland for a short ride over to The Boatshed on Waiheke Island. When you arrive, get ready to kick back and lounge in casual luxury and harmonizing with the sea.

A range of room choices are on offer. Three Boatsheds have a nostalgic beach cottage feel. Open the shutters and you are welcomed with a peek at the pretty gardens. Feel the sea breeze while lounging on your private deck. As the evening cools down, warm up by the crackling fire.

Sand and sea is in constant view from within the Bridge suite. Twist up a spiral to get to the Lighthouse suite. Inside you will find a whitewashed wooden bedroom. Watch the boats bobbing in the bay, just like the lighthouse keeper would.

Bungalow suites are all about relaxed beach living, while the Watertower suite features a roof garden. Families tuck away in the Owner’s Cottage, an ocean-facing villa with a private heated swimming pool and private dedicate staff at your service.

Working up an appetite isn’t tough to do with so many outdoor activities around The Boatshed. The all day dining keeps that growling tummy happy, and room service is always available with a private homemade meal.

Waiheke Island is an eclectic mix of vineyards, alfresco restaurants, and galleries to discover. Despite its small size, Waiheke Island attracts a large international group of artists showcasing their work. There are endless seaside adventures to be had on the island. The Boatshed staff will hand you an umbrella, sun hats, beach bag, sand mat, and sunscreen for a day of frolic and fun.

Go on a voyage of self-discovery in the spa with a wide lineup of treatments from reiki to ayurvedic hot oil massages. Your inner body will be nourished too with the organic produce grown on-site, served up with succulent seafood and New Zealand wines. The island is home to a large number of wineries which you can easily visit with a stay at The Boatshed.
