We stayed at the boatshed for two nights but oh how I wish it had been for a week. It is expensive but every little luxury is thought of. The weather was rainy and cold but we were in heaven in the bridge room with our luxurious king size bed, fireplace, amazing views, a cheese platter and a bottle of... More

This hotel is gorgeous, the decor is fantastic and the food is to die for. The chef makes the most delicious dinners and breakfast. You need to stay here for a few nights (I could stay for 2 weeks its amazing) to get the full benefit. The view the music the location.. everything is amazing and a must stay if... More

I love this beautiful hotel on the stunning island, Waiheke, off the coast of Auckland. You are welcomed immediately you drive up to the hotel. I had the Tower bedroom which was just gorgeous. Level 1 was the entry area and bathroom, with a beach bag, towels, sun hats and sun screen (I love that touch). One floor up a... More

The decor is tasteful, Johnathon the host is warm and welcoming without being intrusive and the breakfast and dinners were up there with the best we have eaten all around the world. Johnathon packed a picnic... More

If, like us, you fly into Auckland Waiheke Island is a 30 minute ferry ride away and is a much better start to your holiday than Auckland. The Boat Shed is one of the most creatively and intelligently designed properties I have ever visited. It is how I imagine the very best of East Coast America to be. We had... More

My sister and I have just shared four blissful days at the Boatshed - it was our first time in Little Oneroa and at the Boatshed. Jonathan is a consummate host and GM - his easy style and manner helps guests immediately relax; the staff and particularly the chef were at all times so helpful. The service is outstanding. The...

Marooned! Rather, we have voluntarily walked the plank. The Auckland to Coromandel ferry has broken down and Mrs Jones has been convinced to jump ship, for a night on Waiheke Island in Auckland’s Hauraki Gulf. After a couple of hasty phone calls Jonathan, our host at The Boatshed, arranges transport and we travel the length of the island to this... More

We spent two lovely nights here, a great place to get over jet lag. The Lighthouse had everything one could want, was very comfortable, and had extras such as a Nespresso machine and jars of biscuits and sweets. It is in a lovely position overlooking a small beach, very quiet at night and not far to walk into town. The... More

The perfect place for a wind down holiday, be pampered and feel at home as soon as you cross the threshold. The accommodation is faultless and unique. Food is made to order in an "open kitchen" area and to suit your specific taste buds. Staff are very friendly and will collect you at the Ferry when you arrive. Situated at... More
