When searching for a special getaway for two, a private beach villa makes for the perfect accommodation in Waiheke. Although there are a number of things to do on the island, it is essential for couples to spend quality time together and reconnect with each other.
A getaway is a chance to relax, unwind, and leave the worries behind through warm baths, massages, nurturing meals, a great night's sleep on a spacious and comfortable bed, a delicious breakfast, and connecting with your partner.
This is why throughout this article, you will be able to get to know a bit more about our luxury villas, their remarkable details, and more information to make your trip to Waiheke Island simply unforgettable.
There are a number of reasons why you should choose a private beach villa for your stay in Waiheke, but we would like to highlight a few non-negotiable when it comes to a memorable experience:
In a nutshell, a couples getaway should feel like the ultimate time for rest and relaxation, which is why you and your partner deserve a more secluded and luxurious accommodation with a private beach. Think of it as an eco-luxury retreat where you’ll be immersed in nature, surrounded by stunning ocean and forest views.
Waiheke is a place that already makes guests feel they are thousands of miles away, even though it’s so close to Auckland. It’s possible to reach the island within a 40-minute ferry ride from the city, or less than 10 minutes if you are coming by helicopter.
This piece of land brings an invitation to leave the mundane behind and make an open encounter with peace so that you can have moments of pure joy with a loved one.
Add a private beach villa to that, and you will leave wondering when you’ll be coming back to restore yourself again. Each trip can be different, but to Waiheke, we believe it must be memorable.
Omana Luxury Villa is an awarded boutique hotel with four spacious and designed villas, immersed in nature and breathtaking views of the ocean. Our luxury accommodation has welcomed distinguished guests from all around the world, including celebrities.
The villas have meaningful names – Joy, Haven, Surrender and Serenity – that will hopefully inspire our guests during their stay. Each one of our luxurious villas boasts a total of 73 square meters, including a private balcony, from where you can marvel at the beautiful views, watch the sunrise and listen to the incredible sounds of nature.
The beautiful Woodside Bay, where the private beach is located, will be your daily companion when you open your eyes.
Waiheke offers a world of possibilities during the day and night, such as wine tastings and outdoor activities like hiking and water sports.
If your plan is to spend quality time indoors after a day filled with activities in Waiheke, you may want to dine in and put on music from your favourite playlist while savouring every moment and bite.
Remember to refresh yourself with a sip of still or sparkling water, which comes naturally from the tap installed in our luxury villas – this is what we like to call sustainable luxury.
This special feature was not only for the good of our guests but also for the good of the environment, as we can be free from all the wasted plastic bottles. In luxury accommodation, sustainability is vital, and it’s an important part of Omana’s values. No wonder we are also energy-efficient, with solar panels that provide power to the villas.
And there is much more to each of our villas, such as a majestic bed, a bathtub with a view, TV entertainment, a daily gourmet breakfast and other amenities and features.
On Omana’s magnificent land, there’s a unique path that goes down to the private beach. All our visitors have to do is to follow a bushwalk for only ten minutes. Move with grace and admire the nature that surrounds you throughout the walk.
If you would like to reach the beach by car, that is also an amazing option. The short drive to the beach is less than 1 km, and you will see Destiny Bay Vineyard along the way.
Our villa’s private beach is filled with beauty, from where you will hear the wonderful sound of the ocean, refresh yourself in the water and rest. Take a book with you and watch the time flow away.
Once you have indulged in the exclusiveness of Omana’s private beach, you may want to try others. This beautifully octopus-shaped island has many beaches for visitors to discover and enjoy – and even go snorkelling.
When you make transport arrangements, it’s quite easy to get around Waiheke by car, either your own car, a rental or, our favourite choice: hiring a private driver as part of our exclusive services. This is the most convenient and comfortable option for Omana guests to have no worries at all on this beautiful island.
So let’s get you to the beaches! Some of them are listed below.
This is the number one beach on Waiheke Island, and you will certainly discover its beauty. Located in the main village, it’s a great place to walk and search for tasteful restaurants and cafés.
If you liked the private beach villa option, you might as well find this beauty quite interesting. Little Oneroa is small and more secluded, more towards the east of Oneroa Beach.
Palm Beach is practically an invitation for a nice swim just to look at it, so it tends to be more attractive to families with children. If you are looking for peace and quiet, perhaps relaxing on your private beach villa is a better option.
One of the greatest beaches in Waiheke for long walks, as it stretches for 2km. It’s a lovely spot for seeing the Pohutukawa Trees.
For the water sports fans, Blackpool is definitely an amazing option to go kayaking. If you would like to try paddle boarding, this is also your place.
It is also good to remember that Waiheke is not all about going to the beach – even though this is a fantastic option. There are a number of things you can do on the island, such as:
As mentioned, one of the main activities in Waiheke is certainly wine tasting. With over 30 boutique wineries on the island, you and your partner may want to discover new flavours and take home a memory from this perfect getaway.
Also, try delicious food that is served in a great number of restaurants, from local to international cuisines.
