On the edge

During your stay with us, you will be living on the edge. The cliff top location of the house approximately 100m over the water, allows for panoramic views over the Hauraki Gulf and the shoreline and the activities that are taking place in the water and the sky. Watch the fisherman pull in their craypots or their snappers. See pods of dolphins cruising the shoreline or whales blowing in the distance. Enjoy the widest sunset with a cocktail on the deck. This really is a special spot.

wide ocean views

Dreaming of the widest ocean views? You have them here. 270 degree views over the Hauraki Gulf. You won't need your binoculars to spy dolphins, whales and orcas.

Astronomers welcome

If you do enjoy stargazing, you will like our dark location with unobstructed views to the sky and no light pollution to view the movements of stars, the moon, falling stars and meteorites.

Remote and quiet

Cliff House Hideaway is located at the end of a long metalled road. It's 4WD access provides you with all the piece and quiet you could wish for. Access to the wider world, i.e. internet access is available on request.

Eco house luxury

Architecturally designed Cliff House Hideway is not connected to the grid. Water is heated through solar panels and a wood stove and electricity is generated through PV panels and a wind mill, backed up by a quiet diesel generator. In winter, the floors are heated by hydronic underfloor heating, with hot water supplied by wet back stoves. The pool is also heated by the sun. Are you interested in building an eco-house that is partly self-sustainable? This apartment has got some features that will interest you. Your host next door are happy to talk you through it.

Fishing of the rocks

Are you interested in rock fishing? Our favorite rock fishing spot is visible from the deck of your apartment. A 15 minute walk down a challenging track will get you down there. Fishing rods and bait are available on request. Penguins, a fur seal, sting rays, Bryde's whales and dolphins have all been spotted from this fishing spot and sometimes we even forget about the fishing...
