Blackpool Boathouse - Walk to Oneroa

Summary:

A beautifully crafted home centred around a private pool, with three bedrooms, three bathrooms, and an easy walk to Oneroa Village and Blackpool Beach.



The Space:

Blackpool Boathouse is designed for relaxed indoor/outdoor living. The home wraps around a central courtyard pool, creating a calm, private space for slow mornings, shared meals, and warm afternoons in the sun.



The open-plan living and dining area has a wood fire for winter stays and opens directly to the poolside deck. Sun loungers, an outdoor dining table, and a BBQ create an easy flow between the kitchen and the outdoors, making this a practical base for groups who like to cook, swim, and spend time together.



The kitchen is professionally equipped, giving guests everything needed for holiday cooking or simple breakfasts before heading out. In the main house, two double bedrooms sit close to the living areas, each paired with its own full bathroom. The third bedroom sits in a self-contained studio with its own bathroom, offering privacy for couples, older teens, or guests wanting their own space.



Every detail of the home has been considered, from the layout to the furnishings, making it a comfortable, easy place to settle into from the moment you arrive.

The Neighborhood:

Blackpool Boathouse by Stay Waiheke sits in a quiet, convenient location close to beaches, cafés, and the village.



For breakfast or coffee, Wai Kitchen and Akito in Oneroa are a short walk away. For lunch Fenice offer relaxed meals with local produce. Dinner options include The Oyster Inn for coastal dining or Fenice for Italian plates in the heart of the village.



Nearby vineyards include Cable Bay and Mudbrick, both a short drive from the home and ideal for long lunches, wine tastings, or special occasions. For something more casual and family-friendly, The Heke serves wood-fired dishes, local craft beer, and has a lively garden setting.



Oneroa’s boutiques, galleries, and shops are all within easy reach, making this a convenient spot to explore the island.



Getting Around:

The nearest bus stop is within walking distance and connects directly to Oneroa, Onetangi, Palm Beach, and the ferry terminals. Buses stop outside major wineries including Cable Bay, Mudbrick, Stonyridge, Tantalus, Te Motu, Wild on Waiheke, and The Heke. Taxis, rental cars, scooters, and e-bikes are also available. On-site parking is provided.



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.
