Boutique bayside comfort for your island getaway
Welcome to Boatsheds on the Bay, Waiheke Island! Our picturesque 1.25-acre property in Ostend provides excellent waterfront views of Putiki Bay while being conveniently close to shops, cafes, public bus stops, vineyards, and so much more.
OUR BOATSHED CABINS
Whether you're a solo traveller looking for tranquillity or a couple seeking a quick weekend getaway to Waiheke, our four well-equipped boatshed cabins are cheerful and comfortable with the water's edge just outside your door. Relax and unwind on your private deck or utilise our communal green space for a coastal picnic. Self-contained and intimate yet nearby to one another, our boatsheds are an ideal solution for groups travelling to the motu for a wedding or other island event. Young children and infants are not permitted into the boatshed cabins due to size, facilities, and overall guest experience.
THE STARFISH APARTMENT
For parties of three or more - including guests with little ones in tow - the two-bedroom Starfish Apartment offers true home-away-from-home amenities and extra comfort. Situated at the top of our property, the view of Putiki Bay is superb from your private balcony. An excellent option for two couples or a family, the spacious Starfish Apartment comes with everything you need for a quick island visit or an extended holiday.
