Summary:

Set within the gated Delamore Cove Estate above Oneroa, Manuka Studio is a quiet, light-filled retreat with wide sea views across the bay. Designed for couples or solo travellers, the studio includes a private balcony with BBQ, Starlink Wi-Fi, and on-site parking, all just minutes from Oneroa Village, beaches, and walking tracks.



The Space:

Manuka Studio sits high within the Delamore Cove Estate above Oneroa, with wide views across the bay toward Motuihe Island. The setting is calm and surrounded by native bush, with natural light moving through the studio from morning through to evening.



The studio is comfortable and uncluttered, with high ceilings, muted furnishings, and large sliding doors that open directly onto a private balcony. The balcony includes a BBQ and outdoor seating, with uninterrupted views from sea to sky.



Inside, the space includes a comfortable queen bed, a modern ensuite bathroom, and a well-equipped kitchenette suited to simple meals or longer stays. The studio also includes a flat-screen TV, Netflix, Starlink Wi-Fi, and on-site parking just steps from the door.



Guests are welcome to enjoy the shared gardens near the entrance of the estate, a quiet space surrounded by native trees. Manuka Studio is one of four self-contained units within the Delamore Cove Estate and is well suited to guests wanting privacy in a peaceful setting close to Oneroa.

Shared access is available to the gardens within the Delamore Cove Estate, a quiet area surrounded by native trees and sea views. The Te Ara Hura walking track passes directly by the property entrance, offering easy access to coastal and bush walks.



Check-in is from 2:00 pm, and check-out is by 10:30 am. Early check-in or late check-out may be available for an additional fee, depending on booking schedules and same-day turnover.



The Neighborhood:

Delamore Cove is located just above Oneroa Village, surrounded by native bush and overlooking the Hauraki Gulf. This part of the island feels quiet and private while remaining close to cafés, beaches, vineyards, and walking tracks.



Start the day with coffee at Wai Kitchen overlooking the bay or visit Fenice for relaxed breakfasts and long lunches. Cable Bay and Mudbrick Vineyard are only a few minutes away and are well known for local wines, seasonal food, and sunset views across the water toward the city.



The Te Ara Hura trail runs past the estate, connecting to coastal headlands, sculpture park routes, Blackpool Beach, and Oneroa Village. Oneroa Beach is also close by for swimming, picnics, and easy afternoons by the sea.



Getting Around:

Getting around from Delamore Cove is easy. The property is about a five-minute drive from the Matiatia passenger ferry terminal and just a few minutes from Oneroa Village, Little Oneroa Beach, and the island’s main bus routes.



If you’re not bringing a car, buses run regularly between the ferry, Oneroa, and Onetangi. The nearest stop is a short walk from the property, and most routes link to Waiheke’s beaches, cafés, and vineyards. It’s a simple, scenic way to explore the island at your own pace.



E-bikes and scooters can be hired in Oneroa if you’d prefer to ride, and there’s on-site parking just steps from the studio for guests with a vehicle.



Other Things to Note:

This is a self-catered holiday home, not a fully catered stay. We provide a starter supply of essentials such as toilet paper, coffee, tea, and milk to help you settle in on arrival. Once these starter items have been used, guests are responsible for purchasing any additional supplies needed during their stay.



For properties with a fireplace, stays between 1 June and 30 September include a starter supply of firewood. Additional firewood can be purchased from local petrol stations, Woolworths, Four Square, and Mitre 10.



Beach towels are provided at properties with an available pool or spa. Guests staying at properties without a pool or spa will need to bring their own beach towels.



Interaction with Guests:

Our team is available seven days a week from 8:30 am to 5:00 pm, with after-hours assistance for urgent matters.



For any life-threatening medical emergency, fire, or serious property emergency, guests must call 111 immediately. For other urgent issues, after-hours contact details will be provided prior to arrival.
