It doesn't matter if a relationship is brand new or if a long story has already been written, couples need to invest some time to simply enjoy each other's company and grow their love. Don’t you agree?
If so, you might understand that this is the reason why a romantic and secluded getaway should be on every couple's mind every now and then. Having some privacy and tranquillity to rest, replenish and reconnect with each other is one of the secrets to a long-lasting relationship.
Where to go? As an award-winning boutique hotel created for couples and individuals to reconnect with nature, themselves, and their loved ones, we have the best suggestions for a secluded getaway for couples. We are ready to share them with you and your partner so you can start planning your trip!
Think about this: an island is one of the best places for couples who are looking forward to spending quality time together and strengthening their bond.
The reason is simple: There are no distractions. Well, there might be amazing distractions, such as wine tastings and culinary delights, but the environment makes it way easier to forget about daily life and swiftly focus on what is important for a couple's reconnection.
In the hustle of everyday life, many couples feel like there is not enough time for romance (if you’re not the romantic type, think of this as ‘connection’) in their routines, and, unfortunately, this might end up tearing them apart.
Therefore, it is necessary to make a commitment to each other to find some time, preferably choosing a place and activities that prevent anything else from getting in the way. Hence, an island. Waiheke island.
Let’s not forget that one of the main reasons couples search for a secluded getaway is to be far from the public eye. Omana Luxury Villa prides itself on its location on top of a hill on Waiheke Island, marvelling at Woodside Bay.
This heavenly spot has been the choice of distinguished guests such as singer Rita Ora and film director Taika Waititi, and other Hollywood stars and public celebrities who have found in our villas a luxury retreat.
We have curated a spot where visitors can just be and enjoy themselves amongst peace, comfort, and beauty. As a self-service private villa, our boutique hotel allows guests to be as “invisible” as they please, yet they will be well looked after with our top-notch amenities and exclusive services, including:
Another reason to come on a couple’s getaway is the opportunity to feel safe to celebrate your love.
Omana Luxury Villa is committed to offering inclusive hospitality for our LGBTQ+ guests, so we’ve completed training to become Proud Certified by booking.com. Everyone is welcome and free to be themselves here – no matter who they are, or they love.
Waiheke is perfect for couples on their honeymoon, anniversary celebration, or romantic getaway due to its incredible local cuisine and fine restaurants, which are clear invitations to a meal for two.
There are also wineries to visit, wine and gin tastings, and other outing options, such as those that allow you to appreciate Waiheke's art scene and even buy souvenirs to remember your special trip.
The island is also a great place for couples who enjoy spending time at the beach, doing water sports, or going on the best walks and hikes, amongst other great things to do in Waiheke.
So, what do you think about when the idea of a secluded getaway comes to mind? Try to picture this: a luxurious accommodation immersed in a verdant land, away from the busy areas of Waiheke, yet, only a short drive away from restaurants, wineries and more.
If you decide to stay cosy inside, you'll be in a villa in Waiheke that holds everything you and your better half might need, like entertainment options, flat-screen TV, temperature control, super king-sized bed, generous bathtubs with great views and, of course, a private balcony just for you two.
In other words, you will have the perfect place and atmosphere to just relax and create special memories with your loved one, with no reason for worries or distractions that could pull you apart.
From the moment you wake up, you’ll be immersed in nature and each other’s company. Savour a tasty breakfast delivered to your door and start another wonderful day in paradise.
If you decide to go after Waiheke's amusements, you'll find plenty of options no matter what type of activities suit the couple better. Besides the wineries and restaurants, the island is well-known for its beautiful beaches with white sand and turquoise water.
Considering that, you should know that, depending on the place you choose to stay, you'll have exclusive access to a private beach. This is one of the many wonderful things Omana has to offer, which makes it even more of a secluded gateway choice for couples.
No matter what you and your partner decide to do, it is also good to know that there are different ways to get around Waiheke, such as taxis and rentals, bikes and scooters. But the most convenient, comfortable, and stylish means of transportation is, of course, hiring a private driver, a service we offer exclusively to our guests.
Love is cultivated with commitment, daily effort, and special moments that show what the other person and the relationship mean and how important they are.
There are different ways to do this and one of them is creating a memorable experience in a secluded place for couples just like Waiheke and Omana Luxury Villa. If you would like to surprise your partner with a couple’s getaway, we are happy to offer vouchers, so please click here to contact us.
Getting to the island for this precious time is easy once Waiheke is only a 40-minute ferry away from Auckland. Another way to get here, and make the whole experience even more remarkable ― is by air.
You can come to Waiheke by helicopter to appreciate a unique view, get more privacy during your travel, and set the tone for your romantic trip from the very beginning.
Of course, if you'd rather, you can also take a private water taxi from Auckland and book in advance your transportation to suit your convenience.
