Cypress Ridge Estate - Stay Waiheke | House in Onetangi
4 Bedroom House in Onetangi
Summary:
Set high above Onetangi, Cypress Ridge Estate by Stay Waiheke sits among working olive groves and vineyards with panoramic views of the sea and surrounding countryside. The estate brings a quiet, grounded luxury, a place where time stretches out and the landscape sets the pace
The Space:
At Cypress Ridge Estate, the land and home feel deeply connected, olive trees, vineyard rows, and the sea stretching out below.
The main residence opens into a generous living and dining area with a wood-burning fireplace and a chef’s kitchen made for cooking together. There’s plenty of room to gather, friends at the bench, a bottle of local wine open, and the meal taking shape as the evening settles in. Large glass doors open to the covered outdoor lounge, complete with another fireplace, perfect for relaxed dinners and time shared with family and friends.
Three spacious bedrooms open to the landscape, two with ensuite bathrooms. Each has been designed for comfort and calm, with quality furnishings and quiet views across the estate.
Just a short walk from the main house, the guest cottage offers a private space of its own. It includes a king bedroom, bathroom, small kitchen, and living area with fireplace, along with an outdoor bath set among the olive trees.
The estate itself is a working vineyard and olive grove. Enjoy walking through the olive grove and vineyard, enjoy the harvest from the large kitchen garden, find fresh eggs in the hen house, tramp through an acre of native bush with several 1000 year old Puriri trees, or picnic in the shade of huge Pohutukawas overlooking the neighbouring vineyards.
This stunning lifestyle property shares boundaries with several award winning vineyards and restaurants including Miro/Casita Miro, Stonyridge, Te Motu and Obsidian…making spectacular wine and food a short stroll away.
When you’re ready to head out, it’s a ten-minute walk down the hill to Onetangi Beach, 2.5 kilometres of white sand and calm water, with the local pub at the far end for an easy drink before heading home.

The Neighborhood:
From Cypress Ridge Estate, the best of Waiheke unfolds in every direction. The estate sits high above Onetangi, surrounded by vineyards and olive groves, with views that run all the way to the sea.
Just down the hill, Onetangi Beach offers 2.5 kilometres of soft white sand, perfect for morning walks, a swim before breakfast, or lunch by the water. Ki Māha and Three Seven Two sit right on the beachfront, both serving exceptional island dining.
Moments from the property, Casita Miro is a local favourite, a hillside vineyard and restaurant serving Spanish-inspired tapas and Mediterranean dishes made with produce from their own kitchen garden. The setting is beautiful, framed by vines and art, and the service feels personal and relaxed. Enjoy a long lunch with a bottle of Miro Vineyard wine, or stay for their curated wine and sherry tastings, it’s a meal that lingers with you long after you’ve left.
You’re also within easy walking distance to Stonyridge, Te Motu, and Obsidian Vineyards, all award-winning wineries offering tastings, shared plates, and garden-style dining. Each has its own character, Stonyridge for its famous Larose and long lunches, Te Motu for its tranquil courtyard, and Obsidian for small-batch wines poured just metres from the vines.
Tantalus Estate, a short drive away, offers one of the island’s most refined dining experiences, with its exceptional degustation lunch highly recommended. For something more casual, stop at The Heke Kitchen, Brewery & Distillery, known for craft beer, local spirits, and live music on summer Fridays.
Groceries and essentials are close by in Ostend, and Oneroa Village is a short drive for boutique shopping, galleries, and dinner by the bay.
Here, your days fall easily into rhythm, beach, vineyard, good food, and time that feels entirely your own.
Getting Around:
Getting around from Cypress Ridge Estate is simple. The Matiatia passenger ferry terminal is about a 15-minute drive from the property, and regular bus routes (50A and 50B) connect the ferry to Onetangi Beach and the island’s main villages.
If you’re travelling without a car, it’s easy to get around. Buses run regularly, linking most beaches and vineyards, and the ride itself is part of the island experience, relaxed, friendly, and filled with views. The main route passes through Vineyard Valley, with stops right outside many of Waiheke’s best wineries, perfect for tastings, long lunches, and letting someone else take care of the driving.
For a change of pace, Oneroa Village is a 10-minute drive away for boutique shopping, art galleries, and dinner by the water.
E-bikes and car hire are easy to arrange if you’d like to explore further, and there’s ample on-site parking at the estate. However you travel, every route winds through vines and sea views — the kind of journey that makes getting there part of the holiday
