On top of the hill, Omana is home to four designed villas facing the emerald ocean, immersed in a natural and preserved environment. We are going to share a bit more details about it and help you decide on your stay.

1. Designed luxury accommodation

A honeymoon or any love celebration should be memorable and spent in a special place in Waiheke. That is why luxury villas are the perfect setting for couples who want to be surrounded by beauty.

Inside the villa of your choice, you will find bespoke furnishings and details that fill the place with flair and sophistication.

We welcome each and every guest with open hearts, including when there are mobility requirements. In fact, our Villa Serenity is a wheelchair accessible accommodation in Waiheke Island.

2. An ocean view

You may be interested to know about our story and the fact that Omana was meant to be a villa of our own amusement. Following one of our strongest values, kindness, our project ended up growing and turned into the development of four luxurious villas that can now embrace guests from all over New Zealand, Australia and the world.

What does it have to do with an ocean view? The moment Omana’s partners – in business and in life – set foot on this land, they marvelled at the sea and the natural beauty, making up their minds that it would be a magnificent place to stay in Waiheke Island.

Wide windows guide our guests' eyes standing from the bedroom, taking a warm bath in the bathroom and resting on the balcony.

3. A private beach

From the places to stay in Waiheke Island, we are proud to present our guests with access to a private beach.

It can be reached within a short walk immersed in nature, or from a quick drive that will take directly to the beach. Stay as long as you would like, listening to the water sound and the birds that are protected on the island.

4. Sustainability mindset

Luxurious accommodation must have deep care for the environment. After all, luxury takes a new meaning at Omana, in the sense that it has to be as good for the eye as the soul. This is part of a mission to share with our guests the luxury of abundance.

There are many actions that can be taken as sustainable, such as providing a daily served breakfast made by local producers.

The energy needs are also met from renewable sources, and we have water suppliers from rainwater and natural spring. Speaking of water, our villas’ kitchenettes have a tap for chilled spring and sparkling water, riding the need for plastic bottles.

Furthermore, for guests coming to Waiheke in an electric car, there’s an EV charging point in our car park.
