Four Huia

The accommodation was very clean and comfortable with lovely little welcoming touches. The bed was comfortable and we had everything we needed. Our host, Astrid offered to pick us up from the ferry which was much appreciated. She made us feel very welcome and gave us a little tour on the way to the house, and later gave us a ride to a winery. She made the stay very easy and relaxing - exactly what we wanted.

Property was so cute and great location close to the beach and with a nice open wide view. Nice touches and gifts left for us,

Beautiful breakfast foods and great location.

i was unsure how to use tv or get shower working properly

Perfect for our weekend getaway. Hosts were lovely, and accommodation had lovely little touches.

It is an elevated, self contained little house with a view & verandah. The owner Astrid went beyond expectations with the thoughtful extras that were provided. We arrived late without provisions, but were able to have breakfast options, which were appreciated. And we woke to the sound of a tui’s melodic tones. Fabulous.

It was cosy, but had everything you need.

The unexpected touches like fruit from the garden, freshly queezed OJ, the welcome note and gift, our name in scrabble letters on the veranda ..... and of course the private location but still so close to everything. Really nice hearing and seeing the tui

The location was excellent, close to cafes and other amenities, yet far enough away to feel quiet and relaxing. The gardens surrounding the unit were lovely.

The property became quite hot; airconditioning in the living area was excellent, but did not seem to cool the bedroom. We’re used to a king sized bed; the property had a queen sized bed.

Home away from home ❤️

Absolutely nothing !!! Everything was perfect !!!

Great location . Close to little onerua beach . Short 10-15 min walk from shops. Charming little house , decorated so nicely . It was nice to feel safe and secure as it’s at the back of the owners property also very private . The owners were very lovely and helpful and provided a few items of food and drink in the fridge as a very much appreciated hospitable gesture .

Nothing . It was all great apart from the occasional mosquito but there were bug sprays and anti mosquito plug ins left to use.

Beautiful place - comfortable and all we needed

Everything

The attention, the jewelry, the confort, it,s was really close to a really nice beach, and all the furniture are unbelievable...

Wir hatten einen ganz entspannten Aufenthalt mit viel Privatsphäre. Astrid alles eine sehr nette, zuvorkommende Gastgeberin.😊 die Unterkunft ist mit sehr viel Liebe zum Detail eingerichtet.

Astrid our host was extremely helpful and has set up the house with everything you’ll need, even her own hand made gifts which are lovely. The kitchen is well equipped, great bathroom and comfortable bedroom. Great deck and outdoor area. Short walk to Oneroa village and the beach. Tui singing in the trees!

Nothing

Lovely, homely place - lots of amenities and small things that made our stay lovely. Astrid communicates really well and was super hospitable. Would recommend this place - a short walk to the town, and just up from the bus routes that can take you to the wineries or other beaches.

N/A

Beautifully set up with attention paid to details. Had everything we needed for a weekend stay and very accessible location. Easy check in and check out.

Quiet and peaceful, gets lovely afternoon sun. Short walk to the beach and the village. Comfortable bed and cute thoughtful decor with little personalised touches!

Cutlery and crockery were put away dirty, but likely due to the previous people staying. Otherwise clean facilities.

Clean, pleasant with a view.

Location was a little too remote. Not easy to get places without own transportation.

Beautiful, peaceful little place with thoughtfull touches. Great location with a short walk to bus stop and can walk into town.

Great quiet street within walking distance to Oneroa town and beaches . Super clean with beautiful little personalised touches everywhere. Everything you need and more . Close to bus stops too . Friendly and helpful owners who go above and beyond to help !

Lovely little place in Waiheke. Loved all the little extra touches like eggs OJ milk and little gifts. Very quirky. Lovely big sofa and comfortable bed. The view was amazing from the chalet. Free parking space as well. Complete privacy. Also beautiful jewellery hand-made that you could buy.

This is such a cute place, lovely views and a short walk to the beach and restaurants. Free secure parking

Comfortable bed.quiet

Emplacement, superficie, vue jardin et mer

Rien qui ne mérite d’être cité

A great spot on Waiheke! Only a 5 minute walk to Little Oneroa Beach and less than 15 minutes to the Oneroa shops. The cottage itself is very nice, located on a quiet street with great views. It was also very well equipped, with all of the amenities that I could possibly need during my stay. The hosts were very welcoming and communicative. I look forward to staying again in the future.

Although we hired a car, we hardly used it. The property is easily accessible on foot from the ferry for those who are reasonably fit, and there are regular buses and taxis available too. The accommodation is within walking distance of the local town and beach, offering peace and tranquility. Four Huia is fully equipped with everything you could need for a comfortable stay, including beach towels. I’d highly recommend this property.

That we didn't have the time to stay longer!

Comfortable, lovely views, kind and helpful hosts

Great location. quiet being away from busy traffic, some ocean view from the porch and more views from the Huia Street, and walking distance to the main part of the town (for those who do not mind walking for 15-min or so each way). Great and thoughtful amenities. The unit is clean with modern conveniences and filled with love and care.

Homely feel

The weather

The property was beautiful. It was light, airy and clean with all the amenities you could need. It was warm and comfortable and in the perfect location. It took 10 mins to walk into Oneroa where the main shops, restaurants and bars are and is 2 minutes walk to bus stops. Astrid very kindly included milk and some refreshments which were very much appreciated. There was nothing not to like about this property. Would 100% recommend and we would definitely return!

Nothing at all! We loved it.

It was very quiet and beautiful view. So close to town, and walking distance to the beach.

Nothing, we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves😊

Fabulous location, very friendly and warm host. Was an easy 10 minute stroll into the main town. Very quiet and comfortable place to stay. Was absolutely lovely. The little touches were great too :)

Nothing that I can think of.

Excellent

The host collected us from the ferry, which was amazing

Nice creative touches

Beautiful property, great views from the verandah. Welcoming hosts. Comfortable bed. Clean, well equipped, comfortable, great location. What more could you want?

Nothing.

Coming from England after 24 hours of flying, Four Huia was the perfect place to rest and recharge. From the moment we arrived, the hosts made sure everything was comfortable, clean, and welcoming. Their hospitality truly stood out—they went out of their way to ensure we felt taken care of. The attention to detail, cozy atmosphere, and peaceful surroundings made our stay extra special. We couldn’t have asked for a better start to our New Zealand trip. Highly recommended!

Clean, comfortable and well appointed. The breakfast items and extra touches were very thoughtful. The bed is incredibly comfortable and set in a tranquil location, as well as being central. Loved having the beach close, and towels provided. Fabulous accommodation, thank you

Not a didn't like, but a mention of the slight hill might be useful if anyone was to have a mobility issue

Location has a great view and close to the beach as well as restaurants.

Some spiders in the corners.

Thanks for all the extra touches! ( coffee, muesli, milk, orange juice , butter …😊) An extra thanks for the drive to the ferry!

Nothing

Nearness to beach, bus stop and shops, quiet neighbourhood

The hilll to get to the cottage from amenities (not mentioned in the site description & we didn't have motorized transport)

Loved everything!!

Beautiful location, with all the amenities we needed. Private space with heaps of small touches added. Really felt at home

N/A

Location is just perfect - easy walk to the beach and to the shop, fish & chips & snack bar on beach and a short walk into Oneroa. Property is so clean with everything you could need. The bed was one of most comfortable in our 6 week trip round New Zealand.

Nothing.

Great set up, lots of little extras including food and drink

Nothing

Stunning property and location. Nice personal touches. Lots of implements & things available to make your stay easy. Great view. Nice native birds. Great hosts. Perfect

It was immaculate. The hosts really added finer details to make very unique.

Really like the decor, furnishings & the view. The chalet had everything we needed for doing meals in, when we wished. Comfy bed too. Our host, Astrid, was so delightful. Love her fluffings.

Perfect distance from the local village (10 minute walk), beautifully styled and decorated, everything you could possibly need had been thought of, super clean, very comfortable, a million little touches! Astrid is an amazing host-so friendly and flexible and willing to go the extra mile. Arohanui Astrid!

Nothing!

The property is lovely has a great aspect. Beautifully presented clean space as well used . The bed is very comfortable. Has a lovely bathroom outside area is very comfortable with a barbecue table. Attention to detail was amazing from our name on the table outside to welcome gifts. Everything is provided tea coffee sugar butter cereal. Astrid is an amazing host Recommend this place to stay close to the village, but you probably would need a car

Wonderful cozy accommodation with everything you need. It’s located higher up, so you have a great view over Oneroa. On the other side it’s not far away from Little Oneroa Beach, you easily reach it in some minutes. I liked the small details (on the terrace was a warm welcome and my name and on the milk was a “MOO” with scrabble stones). The hosts are very nice and helpful, so I was driven to the supermarket and at the end of my travel to the Art Gallery. It was also possible to check in earlier so I had more time from my first day. I would definitely book this accommodation again.

For me the accommodation was just perfect.

TASTEFULLY DECORATED, CENTRAL, COMFORTABLE, PRIVATE, THE PERSONAL TOUCHES FROM THE HOST, HER THOUGHTFUL GIFT AND THE LITTLE TREATS

THERE WERE NO NEGATIVES

The location was fantastic - only a 1km walk into the Oneroa town, 100m to the main road on the bus route, and a short walk to the beach. Astrid has thought of every detail and it was like a treasure hunt finding all of the little thoughtful touches they've included. So much loving thought and care has gone into this place. It is a home away from home set on top of a hill with a beautiful view of the sunset and gorgeous gardens. We wouldn't hesitate in recommending Four Huia to anyone looking to stay on Waiheke Island.

We took our own breakfast but there was muesli and milk and eggs available and orange juice so all our needs were adequately met! The location gave us a great view and the trees behind were beautiful. We made use of the free transport for Auckland senior citizens using buses, ferries and train and "shanks pony" (ie walking) from and back to home. Even though the weather was wet we used the time to relax and read and do puzzles and we also played a couple of games which we found in the games drawer. Plus some TV viewing.

Location and hosts

The location was great, an easy walk down to Little Oneroa and Oneroa. It was nice and quiet with a private yard.

Would have loved an oven but otherwise great.

We loved our stay at Four Huia! All the little items that were set out for us made us feel so welcome.🙂 Milk, OJ, butter, water in the fridge on arrival. There was tea, coffee, and cereal handy. The bed and bed-linen were superb. The hosts, Astrid and Marcus were wonderful - friendly and very helpful. We highly recommend Four Huia.

It is very comfortable with a great layout & comfy bed. The host was lovely & came & said hello when we arrived. Great location as walking distance to Oneroa township (down a hill… but be warned, you will need to walk up it back!)

Great stay and really enjoyed all of the small touches around the property. Perfect location close to Oneroa/little Oneroa and would definitely recommend the property and hopefully will be back to stay again in the future.

Everything! We found many little extras and thoughtful touches provided in the unit when we arrived. Also, when we checked out, I left something in the unit and they kindly mailed it to our next destination in Australia. The hosts are great! We loved our stay ❤️

The little extras were great, definitely took the experience up a notch from other places we have stayed.

Softer covers on the chairs.

It had everything you needed with some extra thoughtful items such as milk, breakfast cereals and OJ in the fridge! Some lovely home comforts! A lovely welcome at the doorstep.

There wasn’t anything we didn’t like about the property apart from we weren’t there long enough!

Beautiful property ideally situated near oneroa. Host, Astrid went over and above with extra help to make our stay perfect, providing an extra mattress for our son to stay before his wedding day. She also helped with our laundry as we were travelling onwards. There were lots of personal touches around the property. Outside space to sit and read, very private. Although Astrid is close by and accessible, she was not intrusive. We loved staying here.

Waiheke is very hilly, and this property is up a steep drive, however, that does give it amazing views! Would have liked a washing machine.

Beautiful chalet. Absolutely loved our stay. Lovely personal touches. Great communication with the host. Lovely comfy beds and decor. Everything you could need for a mini breakaway.

I honestly can't fault anything.

Situated having wonderful overview. Close to beach, walking and bus to city. Quite place, equipped with love.

The personal touches and host’s communication were amazing. The place is well equipped and cozy. The weather was not the best when we were on the island but the spa pool helped and we enjoyed it.

Very nice cabin with everything thought of by the owners

I guess the hill up to the cabin might be a struggle for some people, but we were fine with it.

Comfortable and clean

Nothing

Loved the location, views, garden setting and quietness from street noises. Cottage was very clean and comfortable. The personal touches which added to the stay. Very good communication from Astrid.

Nothing it was a relaxing holiday.

Before our arrival, Astrid answered all my questions in no time and was very nice in our communication. The place was absolutely spotless with everything we needed for the weekend (and probably more than what we needed). The little gifts upon arrival makes the experience personalised and special. Astrid is an amazing host, and their little cabin is in a perfect location with easy access to the town center, a bus stop down the road and parking available on site. I would definitely return if I was planning on going back to Waiheke.

Nothing

Awesome cottage in great location close to shops,restaurants and beach. Fab views too. Very well appointed with lots of little extras. Bed, although small was very comfortable. Would be very happy to stay there again.

Nothing - all good

Fabulous location, walking distance to the shops and beach.

We wouldn't have changed anythning.

It was just perfect for us.

I was wholly delighted by this bright and gorgeous little sanctuary. Beautifully comfortable, Netflix, everything works, the milk and butter and juice waiting in the fridge... and THAT stunning view provided by the enchanting balcony. Wow. If you go, please do the Oneroa-Onatengi walk, swing via a vino tasting at Obsidian. I've been to many places in this crazy world and Waiheke is memorably magical.

Everything was amazing! Thank you for the small touches added

The weather lol

Very cosy and comfortable and lots of thought gone into making it a perfect stay !

Stunning location, welcome very friendly, accommodation comfortable with lots of thoughtful touches. Could have stayed much longer! Not far from bus stop and possible to walk to local wineries.
