About Omana Luxury Villa

Waiheke Island Maps image

Waiheke Island is a premier wine destination known for its pristine beaches and stunning scenery – perfectly captured by Omana Luxury Villa's prime location and bespoke services.

Waiheke Island is an incredible destination that lies in the Hauraki Gulf of New Zealand. It is a true hidden gem, allowing visitors to relish the island's natural beauty and soak up the sun.

What sets the island apart from other destinations is its stunning white-sand beaches, crystal-clear waters, and breathtaking scenery. It is the most accessible island in the gulf, with regular passenger and car-ferry services and a helicopter operator based on the island.
Waiheke has become known as New Zealand's "island of wine," home to a dedicated group of winegrowers who have successfully matched the maritime climate and ancient soil structures to select classical grape varieties to produce red and white wines with distinctive varietal character.
The Island has a relaxed atmosphere, and friendly locals are among the most appealing aspects of visiting Waiheke Island. Beyond art, Waiheke Island offers a wide range of outdoor activities, including hiking, kayaking, and fishing. Whether you seek a tranquil retreat or an action-packed adventure, Waiheke Island caters to every traveller's desires.
The neighbourhood around Omana Luxury Villa offers a diverse range of experiences, from relaxation to adventure, making it a perfect destination for travellers seeking a memorable getaway.

Embrace sustainable luxury on Waiheke Island

Esteemed New Zealand architect Pete Bossley designed Omana villas to the highest sustainability standards. Building products are environmentally certified and bought locally where possible. Everyone involved in this project was hand-picked for the quality of their work and passion for working sustainably.

Co-owner Silmara Scholtz has personally led the design of all interiors with her passionate Brazilian heart and inherent sense of style and flair. Bespoke furnishings have been hand-picked for each luxury villa, and the beds have been specially manufactured.

From day one, Silmara and her husband, Cobus, have made every decision for the good of the earth as well as the eye. They have significantly invested in ensuring the Omana forest can prosper, ridding it of weeds and pests and developing a programme of native planting.

This effort has already increased the bird life; the tuis are back!


Our luxurious accommodation setting provides a sanctuary of tranquillity and intimacy for couples on their honeymoon, anniversaries, special occasions, or seeking rekindled love.

Our villas are more than just a stay on Waiheke Island; they are the epitome of unwinding together. Picture in-room massages, warm baths in the oversized bathtub, picnics on the private beach and shared moments on the balcony.

Raise a glass to romance and allow Omana to be the backdrop to your love story.

BOOK YOUR STAY

Our Story

When Cobus and Silmara Scholtz first stepped onto the land now known as Omana Luxury Villa, both were speechless. The late afternoon sun cast a golden light across the humming earth. A Wawata (Fantail) danced in front of them. Leaves in the neighbouring vineyard fluttered in the lightest of breezes. They knew this was exactly where they should be.

THE PICTURE-PERFECT PIECE OF WAIHEKE ISLAND

Fast-forward a few years, and now, nestled on three hectares of lush land on Waiheke Island, lies four beautifully designed villas surrounded by a forest of ancient trees that seamlessly link land and sea, cascading down to a serene crescent-shaped private beach.

Conceived initially as a personal sanctuary, Omana has blossomed into an eco-luxury retreat for couples and individuals seeking to reconnect with nature, their hearts, and each other. The spirit of generosity and the desire to share life's blessings are deeply ingrained in Omana’s DNA. You'll feel this warmth when you arrive, a testament to the founders' big-hearted essence.
