Waiheke Island Punga Lodge

Dyan was so nice and accommodating and the place was perfect for what we needed. Don't miss out on the afternoon tea and get the breakfast in the morning as well! Like staying at someone's home. Rustic but everything you need. Quiet and nice forest surrounding the house and close walk to the beach and town.

The homemade afternoon and large comfortable treehouse like accommodation with super king bed!

ผู้ดูแลน่ารัก บรรยากาศดี สะดวกสบาย บริการดีเยี่ยม เลิฟมากๆ❤️❤️❤️

Location and the service

I had no issues

Afternoon tea with home baked goods was delicious.

Got back after an evening out to find supper waiting for us and breakfast was delivered at the requested time next morning. Excellent food and excellent service. We also had parking at the door which saved negotiating quite a steep hill up to the top level.

Nothing, it was better than expected.

Very cosy and Diane was amazing

Wonderfully friendly host. Provides a beautiful afternoon tea, all handmade and delicious! She even puts a plate of goodies in your room if you aren't around to get them.

Severe mildew on the inside of curtains. Extremely small hand basin in bathroom.

L’hôte est très accueillante agréable adorable gentille ! Le logement est impeccable et avec tous les équipements nécessaires et un jardin magnifique ! Et pour finir le petit déjeuner était un vrai régal

We love the couple own the place, where very friendly, breakfast 😋 nice, good service. Place good near to the shop and the beach.

The bathroom need the windows to be open, when the showers was on, otherwise everything awesome, I wanted to go back for holiday again ...

Owner catered to TV arrangements/ Beautiful afternoon tea

Wonderful stay

Breakfast was very good, freshly home baked muffins and for afternoon tea she baked 3 different items each day and they were excellent.

Shower pressure very low

Wonderful, highly recommend staying here.

Exceptional service, homemade baking with breakfast and afternoon tea. Comfortable beds. Friendly environment and surrounded by trees.

The host made our stay wonderful, amazing scenery and delicious treats.

オーナーファミリーがとてもフレンドリーで、アフタヌーンティーを毎日用意してくれたり、朝に美味しい朝食(別料金)を部屋まで届けてくれたり夜は満天の星が見えたり、家族で過ごせてとてもいい思い出ができました。

Breakfast was excellent, hot muffins but the afternoon tea was amazing!!!

Private, close to nature, beach and town. Loved the afternoon tea and breakfast. The hostess was super cool and so friendly and welcoming. We didn’t want to leave.

Nothing. It was ideal

Host was very polite and sociable.

We had to leave.

Lovely afternoon tea with friendly helpful host

Nothing

Location and price were excellent; room was spotless and the freshly baked afternoon tea provided was an extra nice touch! Highly recommend!

Best continental breakfast ever. Staff go ABOVE and beyond Spud:)

Pretty faultless... Being Super nitpicky the shower could be a bit stronger?

Breakfast was delivered to the room. Afternoon tea had delightful baked goods. The owners are just lovely.

The rooms are basic, however they are spacious and it is very fairly priced.

Very nice host, perfect accommodation, afternoon tea as a very nice bonus

Really enjoyed our stay, the location was perfect, and Dianne the host was wonderful, she brought us up breakfast to our room each morning and made the most amazing freshly baked biscuits and cakes for afternoon tea, Will definitely be back.

It felt like home.

Very friendly and helpful staff. The baking treats that were left in the room were exceptional and made you feel really welcome.

Very nice couple ran the lodge. Nice homemade bread for breakfast and tea.

Pump sound and cement tank next to our balcony

Staff was so kind and helpful. Loved the lady at the front office, grateful ☺️

Everything was good.

We did not have breakfast with our stay.

Wonderful baking, access to Oneroa easy walk. Bonus spa on deck always lovely & hot!

Excellent host who took care of everything and even supplied the recipe for her apple cake, which was delicious.

Nothing to add

Excellent service

The weather

A fabulous welcome. How many places let you arrive and check in 2 hours early, give you tea and biscuits and then still leave your afternoon tea and cakes in your room for when you come back from your day out. Great continental breakfast selection too, delivered to be eaten on your balcony if you want.

The home made afternoon tea, and lovely breakfast. The nature surrounding the buildings.

Pillows we're too soft for me. 😉

We had such a great time at Punga Lodge. The hospitality was a highlight, Dyan and Rob made us feel so welcome from the moment we arrived. We actually extended our stay because we liked it so much. ​The afternoon tea with delicious homemade cakes that Dyan made was a highlight. She made many different ones, and the caramel slice was incredible. The breakfast was also big and very tasty with a big variety. ​The lodge itself is in a perfect spot. It’s only a 2 minute walk to the beach. With the balcony and the birds singing, it feels like you are tucked away in the middle of nature. The bed was very comfortable, and having the hot tub to relax in was a huge plus. ​It felt amazing to stay here. We highly recommend it!

Home made Afternoon tea and Breakfast served to room or verandah. Great bed nd towels.. beach towel available. Milk in fridge! Water in lobby. Loads of mags. Near beach but in the bush. Great tips for travelling the island from hostess Dyan. Also appreciated she was able to accommodate me on second night. Thank you.

Studoo was a little dark and could hear other visitors. But not a big issue. This is a lodge of highest quality. Little seperate units on the property too.

La verdad es que estaba todo execelente, el desayuno sabroso, los pasteles de las tardes muy buenos y sobretodo la atención fantástica, siempre dispuestos a ayudar o guiar. Sin duda volvería a alojarme.

Wow, what can I say!? Dyan was the most hospitable host, her extra touches with afternoon tea and breakfast were phenomenal. The location was fantastic for a quick walk to the beach to enjoy the sunset and early morning swim. The spa was spot on, all in all it was a fantastic stay, thank you.

Beautiful, lush garden setting, and wonderful hosts.

The mosquitoes!

Habitaciones grandes y cómodas, en medio de la naturaleza. La ubicación excelente, cerca de playa Oneroa y de paradas de buses. Hay un jacuzzi que se puede reservar y usar gratis. El servicio de los dueños fue lo más destacable, muy atentos y amables. Limpiaron nuestra habitación y nos dejaron una muchas cosas hechas a mano para merendar!! Delicioso!! Además vale la pena pagar por el desayuno, ya que es abundante. Realmente no tengo palabras. Muy agradecida a los dueños por su atención!

Nada que decir.

The hosts (especially Dyane) made our stay so special. Nothing was too much trouble. Dyane was warm and funny, knowledgeable and genuine. The room was very comfortable with everything we needed. It wasn't flash or new, but we weren’t expecting that for the price we paid. We would love to stay here again.

Insect screens would be a nice addition as we would have liked to open the windows at night. However, plug-in mozzie repellents were provided and these worked well.

Friendly. Plenty of room. Afternoon tea.

All good.

Der Empfang war sehr warmherzig. Frühstück - und Nachmittagstee mit Gebäck - wurden liebevoll serviert. Der Blick vom Zimmerbalkon auf den üppigen Busch trug zum Charme dieser Unterkunft bei. Lage: ein paar Schritte zum nächsten Strand, 10 Minuten zu Fuß zum Zentrum mit Geschäften und Restaurants. Guter Ausgangspunkt zum Wandern, gut an das Busnetz angebunden.

The location for us was perfect. By foot, bike or public transport you could reach all important sights. The apartment was comfy and the afternoon tea and breakfast were just great. Thank you for your hospitality Diana.

Simply the best. The hospitality, the wonderful treats. Everything!!

My brother and I visited the island for my birthday and this was the perfect place for the night. We had a lovely room with a great view. It's in a great vacinity to the town and beaches with a bus stop just up the road. We were in great care with a lovely breakfast in the morning. We hada nice hot shower and a clean bathroom. It waS great for what we our short stay on the island. Will definately go back.

Very quiet Good breakfast Friendly staff

Nothing

Host went above expectations. Great advice on places to go, very generous breakfasts (including freshly baked breakfast muffins) and afternoon teas. Location was great, only minutes from the beach and about 12 minutes walk to town.

The afternoon tea was a fabulous touch. The flexibility of the owners was great. The introduction to the property was very comprehensive.

Maybe the water pressure could have been a bit better.

The hospitality and the cakes were amazing. Lovely location

Location Superb host Great value

A great combination of a good location, simple but great accommodation, and great hosts! The afternoon tea was amazing!

Nothing springs to mind.

Dyans baking and welcome was equally warm and comforting ! The proximity to buses was great and walking distance to the beach and town was a great walk . We couldn’t have been more grateful to Dyan for all her advice and quick response to any enquiry . We loved our stay

Friendly staff. Excellent breakfast and wonderful afternoon tea. Only 6 minutes cycling from Oneroa village.

Facilities very tired. Pillows hot (type of filling?)

The gardens and the afternoon teas. Our hostess is wonderful

The accomodation has a very good location, it was very easy to reach and it had all the amenities as described in the description. The place is run by a very lovely family that made us feel at home as soon as we arrived for check in. All the facilities were in good condition and clean for our arrival, the place itself is very spacious and has a big window with nice view directly immersed in nature. There's a dairy and the little o beach just a short walk away. The tea time biscuits provided were unexpected but highly appreciated and very delicious! The place and the warm atmosphere overall exceed our expectations, we would definitely stay again!

The host Dianne was a lovely woman and amazing baker, she provided us with very delicious treats for afternoon tea each day! She was hilarious and just such a lovely host overall

I only wish we could have stayed longer

Friendly staff & homemade baking

Stairs

We loved the afternoon tea! Such a treat and beautiful baking.

Friendly, clean and comfortable. Lovely position near beach, surrounded by greenery.

I felt so warmly hosted by Rob an Dyan. I had absolute privacy and comfort in my lodge room with versndah overlooking the bush. The breakfast was outstanding and afternoon with home baked cakes mouthwatering.

There was nothing to dislike about our stay! All of the staff (including little Spud) were exceptionally friendly, informative and we've never felt so home away from home! We would stay there forever if we could. The room was spacious, comfortable and tranquil. The bird song in the morning, the delicious breakfast and afternoon tea were just the icing on the cake! We cannot wait to stay again and recommend to everyone. The value for money really exceeded our expectations. Thank you again to Dyan and Rob for being such incredible hosts and humans!

Sehr freundlich empfangen worden, man fühlt sich sofort wohl.

Great staff and lovely spot. We had a great stay
