Serenity - Palm Beach Pathway Retreat

Description

Serenity is a warm, north facing home tucked into a sheltered corner of Palm Beach. Designed for relaxed island living, it offers sun filled interiors, easy indoor outdoor flow, and a quiet private pathway that leads directly down to the sand. It is a comfortable, well balanced base for families or groups wanting space, privacy, and simple access to the beach. Serenity has a calm, welcoming beach house feel, with generous shared living areas, soft natural light, and a layout that encourages time together. The open plan kitchen, dining, and lounge sit at the heart of the home and open through wide bi fold doors to the deck, making it easy to move between indoors and outdoors throughout the day. The kitchen is well equipped for group stays and entertaining, with ample bench space and a large dining table that comfortably seats ten. This area works naturally for shared meals, long breakfasts, and relaxed evenings. Outside, the covered deck extends the living space further, with outdoor dining and lounge areas that can be enjoyed in most weather conditions. Both indoor and outdoor fireplaces allow the home to be used comfortably year round, whether for summer evenings outside or cooler months spent gathered indoors. The surrounding gardens and established planting create a sense of privacy and quiet, while keeping the home closely connected to the beach. A private pathway winds through a Nikau glade and leads directly to Palm Beach. This sheltered section of the bay is known for calm swimming and is particularly well suited to families, with the beach easily reached on foot without needing to cross busy roads. Bed configuration Bedroom 1: king bed with ensuite (upstairs) Bedroom 2: two single beds Bedroom 3: super king bed (can be split into singles on request) Bedroom 4: super king bed (can be split into singles on request) (Upstairs) Bedroom 5 Sleepout: King bed with toilet (outdoor shower) The sleep out is at the front of the property and is around 10 metres from the front door Serenity sits in one of Waiheke’s most loved areas, only a short stroll from Palm Beach, known for its soft sand, safe swimming, and long sunny afternoons. The beach has a small local store for essentials, ice cream, and takeaway food. For breakfast or coffee, guests can make their way to Palm Beach Store, or head into Ostend or Oneroa for The Island Grocer, Frenchôt, Wai Kitchen, or The Local. Nearby dining includes Three Seven Two, Charlie Farley’s, and the restaurants scattered along Onetangi Beach. The island’s well-known vineyards, Tantalus, Stonyridge, Te Motu, Wild Estate, Obsidian, Casita Miro, Mudbrick, and Cable Bay, are all within a short drive or bus ride. Coastal tracks, bays, and swimming spots surround the area, and Ostend’s Saturday Farmers’ Market is only minutes away for fresh produce and local goods. 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 Placemakers. 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. The property uses rainwater tanks, so guests need to be mindful of water consumption, particularly in the summer months. Minimum stay requirements apply as noted above. 7 nights between Christmas and mid January 3 nights remainder of January and holiday weekends 2 nights all other times
