The Loft at Cypress Ridge Estate by Stay Waiheke

Summary:

The Loft at Cypress Ridge is a peaceful, light-filled retreat set on a private estate of vineyards, olive groves, and native bush. With superior comfort, beautiful views, and thoughtful touches throughout, this loft-style hideaway is made for slowing down, unwinding, and enjoying the best of Onetangi at your own pace.



The Space:

The Loft has been designed for slow, indulgent days. The generous king bed is finished with crisp cotton linen, plush bathrobes, and locally made bath products, setting the tone from the moment you arrive.



Each morning begins with a daily self-catered breakfast hamper, complete with organic eggs, bacon, muesli, yoghurt, fresh fruit, bread, jam, and a selection of beverages. Everything you need for beach days is on hand, and everything you need for staying in is already here.



The living area is warm and inviting, with soft natural light and a log fire for cooler evenings. The full kitchen is equipped to a high standard, keeping things simple whether you’re preparing breakfast or enjoying slow evenings at the Loft.



Step outside and soak in the outdoor bath, surrounded by views over olive trees and rolling valley. Wander the estate, help yourself to fresh produce from the kitchen garden, collect eggs from the hen house, stroll through the native bush filled with ancient Puriri trees, or picnic under the towering Pohutukawa overlooking neighbouring vineyards.



With vineyard borders on all sides, the Loft sits within easy walking distance of Miro/Casita Miro, Stonyridge, Te Motu and Obsidian, making world-class food and wine part of everyday life here. A short walk down the hill brings you to Onetangi Beach, with 2.5 kilometres of white sand and relaxed seaside dining.
