The Moorings, situated in a peaceful setting perched about Matiatia Bay, are twin studio apartments with spectacular views - they really cannot fail to impress! An easy stroll from the ferry, and up to Oneroa Village, this is the perfect base for your romantic break to Waiheke Island. Each studio consists of an open plan living & bedroom, opening onto a lovely deck with stunning views across the bay. They are perfectly set up with a kitchenette & bathroom, wifi & TV. Accessed through a lovely courtyard, you have access to a peaceful outdoor area with an outdoor fire. Perched above Matiatia Bay, the property is surrounded by native bush and the humming sound of the bees and cicadas. Directly below the property is the Matiatia Ferry Terminal, but exploring either side of this you find beaches, boats, and lovely native bush. You can walk right around the headlands on either side, there are lovely bush walks with magical views and secret bays to discover. These studios are located in close proximity to Mudbrick and Cable Bay Vineyards making this an ideal accommodation choice if you are attending a wedding or event in the area. The main village of Oneroa with many shops, galleries, cafes, restaurants and the white sands of Oneroa Beach are a 15 minute walk or a few stops on the bus. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby ### Internet - Available in the apartment: WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchenette - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Electric kettle - Microwave - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Housekeeping (on request) - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - Near the bay - Near the ocean - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Fishing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Rock climbing nearby - Sailing nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Garden - Housekeeping (on request) - Property does not allow children ## Similar properties ![One Bedroom Apartment with Ocean View | View from room](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/4000000/3260000/3251200/3251178/62362ea5.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Onetangi Beach Apartments Onetangi - Hot tub - Dryer - Parking included - Free WiFi 9.0 Wonderful 378 reviews CA $223 CA $259 total includes taxes & fees Mar 23 - Mar 24 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-23&endDate=2026-03-24&selected=3251178&PinnedHotelID=3251178&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/109000000/108250000/108242700/108242638/e3695ca8.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Beachfront on Waiheke Onetangi - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer - Parking included 9.8 Exceptional 18 reviews CA $291 CA $337 total includes taxes & fees Mar 24 - Mar 25 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-24&endDate=2026-03-25&selected=108242638&PinnedHotelID=108242638&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/19000000/18640000/18638800/18638794/3d6ca826.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Woodside Bay Chalets Waiheke Island - Kitchen - Parking included - Free WiFi - Air conditioning 9.4 Exceptional 38 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-30&endDate=2026-03-31&selected=18638794&PinnedHotelID=18638794&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Premium Apartment, Multiple Beds, Ocean View | View from room](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/37000000/36100000/36091900/36091896/33c59c33.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Apartment On The Beach Onetangi - Ocean view - Kitchen - Dryer - Parking included 9.0 Wonderful 7 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-30&endDate=2026-03-31&selected=36091896&PinnedHotelID=36091896&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33830000/33822000/33821930/b03d152c.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Settlers Hut Oneroa - Ocean view - Hot tub - Kitchen - Free WiFi 10 Exceptional 13 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-30&endDate=2026-03-31&selected=33821930&PinnedHotelID=33821930&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Cottage, 2 Bedrooms | In-room dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/21000000/20860000/20854100/20854093/0e952680.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Little Blue Bach in Oneroa Village Oneroa - Kitchen - Washer - Parking included - Free WiFi 9.4 Exceptional 6 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-30&endDate=2026-03-31&selected=20854093&PinnedHotelID=20854093&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach nearby](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/38000000/37970000/37964400/37964303/ce9a1789.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Modern, large, open plan 1 bedroom apartment Surfdale - Ocean view - Hot tub - Kitchen - Air conditioning 10 Exceptional 129 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-30&endDate=2026-03-31&selected=37964303&PinnedHotelID=37964303&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/39000000/38010000/38004100/38004003/bbabc74f.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### SPECTACULAR SEA VIEWS!!
