The Shearer’s Cottage | Enclosure Bay, Waiheke Island offers a very special Waiheke Island accommodation experience.
A quintessential Waiheke Bach by the Beach
Discover a truly unique Waiheke Island holiday home in one of the island’s most beautiful coastal locations. Tucked into the lush surrounds of Enclosure Bay, The Shearer’s Cottage is an authentic Kiwi bach filled with character, charm and relaxed island style.
Surrounded by established gardens and pōhutukawa, the cottage is just moments from the clear, sheltered waters of Enclosure Bay — perfect for swimming, exploring the rocky shoreline and long summer days by the sea.
The cottage has one bedroom inside the main house, plus a separate sleepout with a double and single bed, ideal for families or friends. In true traditional bach style, the bathroom is accessed externally from the covered rear patio, adding to the cottage’s wonderfully nostalgic character.
Light-filled living spaces overlook the gardens, while generous lawns and informal outdoor areas invite you to slow down and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.
This isn’t a contemporary luxury villa — the luxury is its incredible Enclosure Bay location, privacy and authentic Waiheke character.
