    The sofa is really uncomfortable - feather cushions, that have flattened, on a hard wicker base and so deep that you can’t lean back comfortably on the cushions on the back. So whilst it looks lovely, it is really uncomfortable to sit on (which is kind of the point of a sofa). There are spare pillows and cushions, which we used to sit on and to put behind us, but each time you get up and come back you have to reposition them to get comfortable again.

    The apartment was tastefully styled and well equipped, and the view is lovely at all times of the day. The bed is comfortable and the blinds keep the light out in the mornings, so you get a good night’s sleep. It’s only a short drive into Oneroa, where there are several good restaurants and a couple of cafes. The lights in the kitchen area weren’t working on our arrival, so we called the number in the information book and they sent someone out the next morning. As it turned out both globes had blown and the property owner came and replaced them for us.

    The Moorings is a exceptional property high on a hill with gorgeous views. The studio is large, private and very comfortable with everything you need. Friendly and helpful owner and staff to answer any questions you might have. Very Enjoyable stay.

    We wish we’d got a (very short) taxi up the hill as we had a big suitcase with wheels that we had to carry. If you’re travelling light you’ll be fine!

    Gorgeous little apartments, very close to ferry terminal and buses.

    There was a function down by the ferry terminal both nights we stayed, with loads of people and music late into the night. We didn't mind too much but it would be good to know before booking that this can be the case. Also there was a pretty aggressive alsation at the neighbouring property which put us off a bit but they had it on a leash and I don't think this is a usual occurance.

    superb location - just a short walk (uphill) fron the ferry and walking distance to Oneroa. very nicely presented with stunning views of the sea. Just the right amount of space for a couple and basics were provided.

    Needs better instructions to find as signage is not visible from the road and the letterbox number on the driveway entrance is not the number of the property

    This artfully designed apartment was fantastic providing beautiful decor, amazing views, and the most convenient location you could possibly ask for. The hosts were kind and very accommodating offering fresh lettuce from their personal garden to a complimentary bottle of local wine. This property will leave you with fond memories of amazing Waiheke Island for years to come.

    It was a tad confusing getting there because of google maps however the instructions given in the messages did help. Definitely don't google maps to get there!

    Absolutely gorgeous accommodation! Perfect for two who want a getaway. It was so nice to wake up to the view, we never shut the curtains! Even at night time you could see the city lights in the distance. I reckon you could see new years fireworks from here!
