We stayed here as a full bridal party and could not have been happier with the service or the state of the accommodation. It was immaculately clean, the staff were very helpful and it is located opposite the beach - all of which allowed us to concentrate on the wedding. The bride and groom had booked elsewhere for the night... More

We stayed in a penthouse apartment at The Sands for the weekend that my daughter got married at Waiheke Island. We arrived on the Friday and found the apartment to be very spacious with a large balcony and a breathtaking view. The living/entertainment area was excellent for a shared meal with family and friends and for other wedding guests to... More

We were pleasantly surprised when we draw up to the Sands and when our friendly host showed us to our apartment.

The beds were cosy,... More

The apartments are spacious, and are ideal for those who need a getaway where work/family/stress can't follow them. There are three restaurants within 10 minutes walk, a bus 50 metres... More

Visited the Sands in the winter time, very warm, blue sky and the amazing yellow sand. The accommodation was perfect, very comfortable, friendly hosts and sea views. In my opinion you can't go wrong with The Sands if you are visiting the Island.

Great rooms, services and amenities. Good restaurants close by and a beautiful beach to walk along. Proprietors (Gerard and Michelle) are very friendly and helpful.

Spacious apartments, well appointed and cared for are situated on one of Waiheke's best... More
