Enjoy the native bird song and garden, overlooking the beautiful lagoon of Enclosure bay, with beach 2 minutes walk away. Stunning views out to Great Barrier and Coromandel. Perfect couples or solo retreat, back to nature. Complimentary use of kayak and Standup paddle board, available for you to explore the bay or coast. BBQ with a view. Relax with a coffee, and enjoy the views from the new, comfortable queen bed. Sit at the breakfast bar inside and watch what's going on in the bay. Dine outdoors on the deck, after BBQing your meal, or drive 10 -15 minutes to award winning wineries, restaurants and cafes. The kitchenette also includes a single induction cooktop with saucepan, toaster, kettle, Nespresso coffee machine and microwave. Rinse off in the gas heated, outdoor shower, whilst enjoying the view. We use a eco composting toilet system which is new, clean and fresh for each stay. The toilet is 4 metres from the main cabin, out from the back door. The cabin is about an 80 metre walk up from the bottom of the section where you can park. So you will need to be able to walk up the hill, it's not very steep, and affords you the great views while being only a minute or two from the waters edge. McKenzie Reserve is our local, regenerating bush walking track. Many other coastal and forest day walks are nearby. We are also on the Te Ara Hura national walking track. Enclosure bay is a well kept secret, one of the quieter Northern coast beaches, just a minute or two from the cabin. Enjoy a swim, snorkel or kayak, you might get to meet our resident octopus if you're lucky. Waiheke is home to numerous vineyards, a local brewery, Saturday arts and crafts market, with many culinary delights to discover. Sandy bay is a few more minutes walk away, just along the road. Palm Beach is a larger, more populated beach, about a ten minute drive away, or 30 minute walk. Palm beach shop can provide you with icecream and restaurant Arcadia available for some lunch and evening meals. It's only a 10-15 minute drive to gorgeous wineries with restaurants such as award wining Casita Miro. Mudbrick, Cable Bay. The Heke is Waiheke's own boutique brewery. Another highly rated restaurant, 372, you'll find at Onetangi Beach, 12 minutes drive away. The stars look better from Waiheke. We are in a mostly unlit neighbourhood so the stargazing is fantastic on a clear night. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby - Beach towels ### Pool/Spa - Sauna ### Internet - Available in the cabin: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchenette - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Electric kettle - Microwave - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster - Water dispenser ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 0.5 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Entertainment - Books - Stereo ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Garden - Outdoor furniture ### Laundry - Laundromat nearby ### Work spaces - Computer monitor ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - One pet total ### Suitability/Accessibility - Area rugs in public areas - Gravel flooring in public areas - Hardwood flooring in public areas - No elevator - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Change of bedsheets (on request) - Change of towels on request ### Location highlights - Near a health/beauty spa - Near the bay - Near the sea ### Things to do - Bicycle parking - Kayak - Birdwatching nearby - Fishing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Snorkeling nearby - Swimming 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 - At least 80% lighting from LEDs - Bed sheets changed on request - Bicycle parking - Bulk dispensers for toiletries - Composting - Double-glazed windows - Eco-friendly cleaning products used - Eco-friendly toiletries - Garden - Grey water recycling system - Living plant wall - No plastic coffee stirrers - No plastic drinking straws - No plastic soft drink bottles - No plastic water bottles - Property does not allow children - Recycling - Reusable cups - Reusable tableware - Towels (changed on request) - Unit size: 194 square feet - Water dispenser usage encouraged - Water-efficient toilets ## Similar properties ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33570000/33567800/33567774/17277517.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Stylish waterfront retreat - dramatic 180 degree views!

Feb 28, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### What a spot!!! We had an amazing stay. Loved the stunning views of the ocean, so nice to wander down for a swim in the bay and be able to use the kayaks too. Cabin was cosy and well equipped with all we needed. Composting toilet was clean and nice to use, we loved the shower on the deck. Look forward to coming back again soon ##### Thomas D. Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ted Z. Apr 27, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Lovely, serene spot We enjoyed our stay immensely. Sean and Charlotte were helpful and friendly and gave us space and privacy while we were there. The cabin is clean, comfortable, well supplied, and the views and bird life are amazing. Not everyone will appreciate the toilet, sink and shower being outside the cabin, but many (like us) will love it, especially in warm weather. We greatly appreciated the eco-friendly use of solar lighting, composting toilet and their efforts to recycle. ##### Ted Z. Stayed 5 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Daniel M. Jan 22, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cozy Waiheke Getaway with Stunning Views! We had a wonderful stay at this charming accommodation! The views were stunning, and being so close to the beach was a huge plus. We enjoyed relaxing on the deck and taking in the scenery. The location was perfect for exploring the area, with close proximity to restaurants, shops, and other attractions. The cabin itself was cozy and comfortable, making it the perfect base for our vacation. We highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable getaway. ##### Daniel M.
