Welcome To CrossTrees on Waiheke Island
Are you planning a holiday? CrossTrees Chalet is the perfect place for a weekend getaway, mini-break or to celebrate a special occasion. The chalet is modern and completely self-contained with quality furnishings and breathtaking sea views from every room.
The Chalet
The setting among native trees is enhanced by the amazing views over the water. Soak in the spa bath while enjoying the peaceful surroundings. The fully self-contained chalet has a super-king size bed (egyptian cotton sheets), television and stereo with surround sound system. Should you choose to dine in, kitchenette facilities include a microwave, dishwasher, stovetop and electric frypan. A washing machine and dryer are also available for your convenience.
Te Whau
CrossTrees is situated at the end of Te Whau, a beautiful peninsula in the more populated western end of Waiheke Island. Te Whau Peninsula is known for amazing views to the northern part of the island, south over Tamaki Strait and back towards Auckland City. Waiheke Island is renowned for vineyards, olive groves, art and bush walks and all of these can be discovered within walking distance of CrossTrees. Enjoy a swim at high tide, explore the rock pools at low tide, follow the coastal walkway to Kuakarau Bay Forest Reserve or follow the walking route known as the Te Whau Loop. You can also experience Te Whau Garden and Gallery, Te Whau Vineyard and newly opened Azzuro Groves.
A Short Drive
Within a few minutes drive is the Waiheke’s main supermarket and on Saturdays, the famous Ostend Market . Did you know that the native dotterel breeding programme at nearby Whakanewha Regional Park is one of the most successful in New Zealand? There are some scenic walks and picnic spots here too. Enjoy a round at Waiheke Golf Club or take a walk along long, white, sandy Onetangi Beach. We can also supply you copies of The Waiheke Island Art Map - A guide to studios and galleries, Waiheke Island of Wine Map and information on the latest exhibitions at The Waiheke Community Art Gallery . To explore the eastern part of the island we recommend driving “The Loop Rd” leading to Waiheke's secret fort at Stony Batter Historic Reserve.
Special Offer
Don't forget our mid-year special offer - Pay for two nights and stay a third night free of charge. Offer valid from 10 June 10 until 31 August 2010.
How to get here
We recommend that guests have their own transport as there is so much to see and do. There are two car ferry options (Sealink and Waiheke Shipping) from Half Moon Bay and Fullers from Downtown Auckland Ferry Building (passengers only). If you arrive as a foot passenger you may want to hire a car. Once you have made your travel arrangements we can provide driving directions from the wharf. If you need extra help because you have never been to Waiheke Island before, click here.
Make your Reservation
Due to limited availability we recommend booking as soon as you have chosen the dates you want. Once you have made your travel arrangements you can relax and look forward to your holiday. If you want to make a reservation over summer (peak season), we recommend booking well in advance to avoid disappointment.
Book your holiday at CrossTrees Chalet today.
PS. Don't forget our current special offer from now until 31 August 2010. Stay three nights for the price of two.
