Serenity by Stay Waiheke

Summary:

Tucked into a sheltered corner of Palm Beach, Serenity is a warm, north-facing home designed for relaxed island living. With open, sun-filled spaces, wide doors that extend the living area outdoors, and a quiet pathway leading directly to the beach, this is an easy, comfortable base for families and groups wanting time together by the water.



The Space:

Serenity by Stay Waiheke has a welcoming, beach-house feel, with generous living areas, soft natural light, and simple, considered styling throughout. The open-plan kitchen, dining, and lounge connect through large bi-fold doors to the outdoor deck, keeping the whole home centred around shared meals, quiet mornings, and slow afternoons in the sun.



The gourmet kitchen is well equipped for entertaining, with a large dining table that comfortably seats ten. Outdoor dining and lounge areas sit beneath the covered deck, alongside both indoor and outdoor fireplaces that make the home enjoyable year-round.

For breakfast or coffee, guests can make their way to Palm Beach Store, or head into Ostend or Oneroa for The Island Grocer, Frenchôt, Wai Kitchen, or The Local.



Nearby dining includes Three Seven Two, Charlie Farley’s, and the restaurants scattered along Onetangi Beach. The island’s well-known vineyards, Tantalus, Stonyridge, Te Motu, Wild Estate, Obsidian, Casita Miro, Mudbrick, and Cable Bay, are all within a short drive or bus ride.



Coastal tracks, bays, and swimming spots surround the area, and Ostend’s Saturday Farmers’ Market is only minutes away for fresh produce and local goods.



Getting Around:

The closest bus stop is within walking distance, with regular services running from Onetangi toward Oneroa and the Matiatia passenger ferry. Buses stop near major wineries, including The Heke, Stonyridge, Tantalus, Te Motu, The Heke and Wild Estate, before continuing into Oneroa Village and down to the ferry terminal.
